What is the difference between mould design speciality and material molding specialty?
Ha ha... I am a junior college major in mold! I listen to the teacher said that the mold is called "junior college", "material" is "undergraduate" name! But the science of comparative theory, junior college more practice (that is, after the next line)!
The former is the focus of the mold, the latter emphasis is molding, more emphasis on material properties
Both belong to the mechanical engineering, the biggest difference is the material forming method, mechanical engineering mainly research cold processing (machine processing), material forming and control is focused on welding, casting, pressure processing, etc..Mechanical major for cold processing of materials, such as machining, the professional more concerned about the shape of the material on its performance, it focused on the design of materials under different requirements, that is, mechanical design. Both belong to the mechanical specialty, because the molding pays more attention to the material itself, often delimits the discipline to the material institute, takes the material specialty.Material forming and control engineering is the influence of microstructure and macroscopic properties and surface shape in the process of the relevant technological factors of thermal processing change material for molding process, solve the development, theory and method of optimizing process, molding equipment; design theory and method of the research of mold, mold manufacturing, heat treatment, the material processing method.
If you say anything more specific, or I can give you a more specific answer.Overall, mold design in many schools are divided into material molding (materials processing) professional inside, there are a small number of schools will be incorporated into the mechanical design.The mold design specialty looks more specialized than the material molding specialty, if you choose to enter oneself for an examination professional, I suggest you choose the mold design specialty. Because the material molding, in addition to mold design in this regard, but also include: non-metallic (blow molding, extrusion, compression, etc.); metal (forging, casting, welding, etc.). In a few years' study in the University, it is impossible to learn all these materials. So now many schools, surface called material molding, materials processing and so on a wide variety of names, but in fact is only one aspect of material molding. This is actually a lot of schools, in order to pass the teaching assessment, the original welding professional, sheet metal professional or mold professional, and so on, coupled with a "big hat."".I don't know. I didn't say it. If you have any questions, you can add it.
