Abstract

This paper presents the advantage of rapid tooling and more specifically the Stratoconception process in order to realize a die casting mould. A test case of a die casting mould is presented. A complete procedure has been developed in order to improve the efficiency of the tooling especially thanks to improved cooling channels. This procedure includes not only the numerical simulations of the heat transfer and the thermomechanical behaviour of the tooling as a help to design but also the manufacturing of the tooling and experimental manipulations.
