This includes all specials or customs including but not limited to machining for horizontal and vertical water lines, pockets or cavity bores, slide pockets, eye bolts, pry slots, guided ejection, k.o. holes, taper locks, hot runner manifolds, spring pockets, angle pins, ejector pin holes, insert bolt holes, support posts, and just about anything else that comes along. Complete drawings are required.

Cad Files

CAD files should be in one of the above formats . If applicable, include a 2-D format containing a plan view of the ejector half, a plan view of the hot half, a side view and an end view. It is not necessary to have a detailed print for each plate unless the particular plate in question is more complex than normal. In that event a detail print of that plate would be very helpful. An example would be a manifold housing plate with a complex (or obscure) wire slot configuration. Your CAD file should not contain unnecessary chamfers or radii on items such as plates, holes or components, except when such items are specifically required. Such items compounds your print with excessive geometry, costing your project valuable time and increasing the possibility of incorrect information being extracted.
Although it is assumed that the data is guaranteed, dimensioning is required for confirmation in our shop. Any item in the base PMBC machines which "touches" inserts needs to be dimensioned. I.E. Locations for ejector pins, insert bolts and taps, angle pins, lifter pockets, probes, etc. Sizes need to be included for items such as pockets and/or bores, probes, probe c'bores, etc. In addition, any non-standard component purchased by the customer should be dimensioned. Unless an unusual situation applies, it is not necessary to dimension any of the standard assembly items in the base such as leader pins, assembly bolts, dowels, buttons, ejector guides, support posts, etc.

For compression.

We have the capability for the following formats.
ZIP, all DOS versions.
SIT, Macintosh compression.
compress, standard Unix compression.
gzip, GNU Unix compression (common on UNIX).
bzip2, block-sorting zip compression (also common on UNIX).
