If you are searching for any of the following topics: Look no further. You'll find it at ASAMOLD! ASAMOLD is an integrated suite of software modules which helps moldmakers, molders and designers through all steps of costing, planning and producing molds. It results in significant savings in the time needed to carry out these functions and reduces potentially dangerous inaccuracies in both costing and planning. Extensive research has led to the formulation of a unique parametric costing method that is easy to use by engineers and designers who may have little or no IT experience. ASAMOLD is already used in several countries by molders and moldmakers alike. A policy of ongoing product development ensures that these customers receive the support they need to maintain a significant lead over their competitors. The key features of ASAMOLD are : · It produces accurate costings for molds, even where final design details are not fully specified. This enables moldmakers to respond more quickly and with greater accuracy to enquiries than is possible with other costing methods. The risk of losing business through quoting too high and of losing money through quoting too low is reduced or even eliminated. · Molders and designers can estimate tooling costs for budgetary purposes, prepare detailed enquiries for sub-contract mold manufacture and analyse quotes quickly and objectively. Through having the facility to estimate costs for both the tool and the part, response to customer enquiries is quicker. This improves the company image and should lead to more and better business. · The results of the costings can be used to produce preliminary mold drawings by exporting the relevant data to a CAD package. This saves time and enhances the quality and content of quotations and enquiries. By using a standard format for costings, enquiries and quotations, comparisons can be made more easily and the data used to optimise the costing process. · When quotations become orders ASAMOLD helps turn the preliminary data into a production costing and manufacturing plan. It highlights differences between the quoted and actual costs and can assist in recovering any undercostings by linking them to changes in specification or design. These comparisons help to refine the costing parameters so that estimates and quotations become even more accurate. · Once the tool is in production real costs and progress can be routinely entered so that any divergence from estimated costs or delivery dates will be apparent at the earliest opportunity. Regular updates on progress are produced for both customer and in-house use. Potential problems are identified ahead of time and so can be resolved more easily.
