The rapid development of mold manufacturing technology has become an important part of modern manufacturing technology. Such as mold CAD/CAM technology, mold laser rapid prototyping technology, mold precision forming technology, mold ultra-precision processing technology, mold in the design of the finite element method, boundary element method for flow, cooling, heat transfer process dynamic simulation technology, mold CIMS technology, has been developing mold DNM technology and numerical control technology, etc. It covers almost all modern manufacturing technologies.

Modern mold manufacturing technology is developing in the direction of speeding up information drive, improving manufacturing flexibility, agile manufacturing and systematic integration.
