The secret in Cutlery die making is a mix of vector-based technology, bas-relief techniques, few mechanical surface tools and a powerful machining strategy. With Type3, benefit from features developed for mold makers and jewelers, to reduce your cutlery design process and machining time.
Here, a 2D scan of a real handle was the start, which was then converted in 2D vectors, then in 3D model before generating NC-Codes for Male and female dies.
Design time was 2 hours, machining both dies was 6 hours.
