Tool Design
Methods

INTRODUCTION
The word Tooling refers to the

Hardware
necessary to produce a Particular
Product
The Tool
Designer must
provide drawings of a tool or set of tools to produce the
work piece.
able to visualize exactly how the work piece is to be
made.
Know manufacturing procedures.
Have knowledge of standards and procedures.
methods used by the plant in manufacturing.
inventive and original.
understand how tools perform their function.
a mastery of drafting techniques is as essential.

Types of Tooling
Cutting tools, such as drills, reamers, milling

cutters, broaches, and taps


Jigs and fixtures of guiding the tool and holding

the work piece


Gauges and measuring instruments
Sheet-metal press working dies for all types of

sheet-metal fabrication
Dies for plastic molding, die casting, permanent

molding, and investment casting


Forging dies for hot and cold forging, upsetting,

extrusion and cold finishing.

The Finished Design

The Needs Analysis


1) Will the tool be used by skilled or unskilled operators?
2) How many parts can be held in the tool?
3) What are the hole-location tolerances on the part?
4) How should the part nest in the jig to maintain accuracy in hole

location?
5) Will the forces from the clamping device affect hold location?
6) Are pneumatic lines located in the area?
7) What are the measurements on the T slots of the machine table?
8) Will operating handles of the machine strike the tool?
9) Will the location of the tool prevent removal of cutters for resharpening?
10) Does the operator need more than one size of wrench or loose handle?
11) Is there any obstruction that may hinder the loading and unloading of
the fixture?
12) Are there variations in shape of the parts?

What previous operations have been done on the part?


If coolant is used, what provisions must be made for coolant passage?
What provisions should made to prevent accumulation of chips?
Surface on the work piece is best suited to locate in relation to the major
reference plane on the machine?
Are locating points easily visible to the operator?
Will burrs interfere with unloading?
Are clamps well out of the way during loading and unloading?
If a cutting fluid is used, will knurled knobs make the operators fingers
sore?
Can the tool be made with the available components and facilities?
Is the cutting force heavy or light in this operation?
Is the cutting force directed toward the solid part of the fixture?
Is the work supported directly under the clamping points?
Will the clamping force bend the base plate and cause inaccurate work?

Drafting Practice

The following list of drafting rules generally applies to tool drawings


and is intended as a guide to help maintain uniformity
1)Alllinesmustbedarkenoughtoproduceaclearandsharpprint

2)Alldrawingsshouldbeonstandardsizethatwillallowtheresultingprintstofoldtostandard
A4size.
3)All drawings should have a border line drawn 5 or 10 mm from each side of the paper,
dependinguponthesizeofthedrawing.
4)Thematerialandtitleblockshouldbelocatedinthelowerright-handcornerofthedrawing.
5)Alldimensionsshouldbeexpressedinmm,withthemmsignomitted.
6)Full-scale drawings should be used whenever possible. Otherwise, use half or as per IS: 696
standard.
7)Drawinganddimensioningmusthelpthepersonwhowillusethedrawingtomaketheitemin
the tool room. The toolmaker should not have to make calculations before he can begin
producingthetool.
8)Onlyasmanyviewsasnecessarytoshowallrequireddetailshouldbegiven.
