Below, we can see a sample Die Holder DXF drawing. A side view profile of the tool is drawn. An origin reference point will need to be placed at the mounting point on the side profile of the tool.

The following text entities are required for a Die Holder:

NAME – This is the name given for the tool.

TONNAGE – This is the tonnage of the tool in kN.

UPPER – This is the upper die valency for the tool that will be inserted into the Adapter.

LOWER – This is the lower die valency of the tool.

HEIGHT – This is the height of the tool measured from the mounting point to the top of the tool. In this example, we can see that it is 60mm.

PIECES – These are the required tool lengths. These are separated by a comma, and if more than one is required, we can use a multiplier to specify the value required.

CANFLIP – If the tool can be flipped when mounted, this should be set to 1.

GROUP – This can be used to specify the tool group that this tool would belong to. In this case, it is Holder.
