Introduction:
Die is a specialized tool used in manufacturing industries to cut, shape and form a wide variety of products and components. Dies are generally customized and uniquely matched to the product they are used to create. Products made with dies range from simple paper clips to complex pieces used in advanced technology. This course will provide die design basics and CAD/CAM know-how for the said purpose.
