Patent attributes
A method for computer-aided generation of tool parameters for tools for the manufacture of sheet-metal forming parts by way of forming processes, including the following steps:determining a set of geometry features (11, 12, 13, 14, 15) of a part (10) in a geometry model of the part (10);determining an associated method standard for each of the geometry features (11, 12, 13, 14, 15), wherein a method standard comprises at least one module, and a module represents a processing unit and describes which processing unit may be executed within a forming operation;determining components for each of the modules of the method standard, wherein these components describe the parts of tools which are required for realising the module;determining component parameters from geometric parameters of the geometry features (11, 12, 13, 14, 15), wherein the component parameters comprise geometric parameters of the components or of the respective tools.
