Project Cases

Mold & Die Machining Applications

Injection Mold Cavities

CNC machining an injection mold cavity

Typical materials: Hardened mold steel, stainless steel and tool steel.

Machining challenges: Hard materials, deep 3D cavities and demanding surface-finish requirements.

ZIROO TOOLS recommendations:

  • Ball nose end mills for deep-cavity and 3D surface finishing.
  • Corner-radius end mills to balance edge strength and surface quality.
  • Application-matched carbide grades and coatings for hardened mold steel.
  • Stable, anti-vibration geometries for thin walls and long-reach features.

Stamping Dies

Precision CNC machining for stamping die components

Typical materials: Tool steel, alloy steel and high-strength steel.

Machining challenges: Wear resistance, sharp die edges and dimensional stability.

ZIROO TOOLS recommendations:

  • Heavy-duty end mills for controlled roughing and stock removal.
  • Wear-resistant carbide grades and coatings selected for the workpiece.
  • Precision finishing tools for profiles, edges and close tolerances.
  • Application-specific cutting geometry to reduce edge chipping.

Die-Casting Molds

CNC machining a die casting mold

Typical materials: H13 hot-work steel, stainless steel and alloy steel.

Machining challenges: Large mold dimensions, thermal-fatigue areas and complex cavities.

ZIROO TOOLS recommendations:

  • Large-diameter roughing cutters for efficient material removal.
  • High-rigidity tools and optimized flutes to control vibration.
  • Heat-resistant carbide tools for demanding mold-steel applications.
  • Precision finishing tools for consistent cavity surface quality.

Electrode Machining

CNC electrode machining for mold manufacturing

Typical materials: Graphite, copper and copper alloys.

Machining challenges: Burr-free features, dimensional accuracy and dust or chip control.

ZIROO TOOLS recommendations:

  • Wear-resistant tools for abrasive graphite machining.
  • Micro end mills for small details and narrow features.
  • Polished-flute tools for cleaner chip evacuation in copper.
  • Special geometries selected for graphite and copper electrodes.

FAQ

Why is it necessary to customize non-standard milling cutters for mold processing?

1. Molds are often very complex in structure, usually containing narrow space, deep groove, complex contour and hardened steel material.
2. Conventional tools do not apply to deep cavities or special angles, and the geometry of the cutting tools as well as the process stability are challenged and have to be customized design.

1. Workpiece material and hardness; 2. Drawing dimensions; 3. Machining type; 4. Machine tool interface; 5. Cooling required.

Our ZiROO TOOLS factory produces die-cutting cutters that can be used to process materials such as wood, steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper alloys, and hardened tool steel.
