New Progressive Die Design Capabilities

With Progressive Die Extension (PDX), Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire helps progressive die designers significantly reduce cycle times, improve quality, and more easily communicate with customers, manufacturing--everyone involved in the development of tooling. Major improvements include new, automated progressive die design functionality as well as real-time, peer-to-peer connectivity that enables quick problem resolution through live design reviews.

New Progressive Die Design Features
With Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire, all the steps involved with designing and detailing the progressive die are now automated:
  • PDX Uses a Process Driven UI For Progressive Die Creation
  • Sheetmetal Part Unbending and Preparation
  • Strip Layout
  • Setup of Progressive Die Tool Including Standard and Non-standard
  • Custom Components
  • Automatic Drawings and BOM

    • Improved Communications
    Real time, Peer-to-Peer connectivity and embedded web technology help drastically reduce travel costs and manufacturing delays, while radically improving communication with customers, NC programmers, designers, et al.
