The ToolDesign Principle
The objective:
The GAP-module ToolDesign supports and automatizes the development, construction, production, and administration of rotation-symmetric precision tools.
ToolDesign serves as the core of Schumacher’s process control in the ToolProduction module – as overall technology hub for products and production parameters. The system is founded on the parameter-based item structure with the construction features of all available tool variants. This standardized technology structure allows the automatic generation of constructive, production-technical, and calculative framework conditions for manufacturing rotation-symmetric precision tools.

The ToolSimulation Principle
The objective:
The GAP-module Tool-Simulation uses the FEM-method to simulate the cutting performance of precision tools. In this context, 3D tool models from ToolDesign can be tested virtually in defined work pieces with their material properties before tool production begins.
The simulation process was realized with high computer processing power through extensive modification of a standard simulation software. At the start, an interactive work piece description for the process is provided to the user of ToolSimulation. This digital work piece receives information about all material properties that are necessary for the simulation process from an edited system data base. The geometry variations and material properties of the precision tools are available through the 3D volume models from ToolDesign.
