Mido impresses at the WBA annual conference in Aachen

/in /by

At the end of November, the year seems almost over, but as usual, a very special highlight awaits the tool and mold making industry. The Toolmaking Academy Aachen, under the direction of Prof. Dr. Boos, is calling for the annual meeting. In addition to stimulating discussions about the future of tool and mold making, especially in the field of international competition, the “Excelence in Production” award “Toolmaking of the Year” was also on the agenda. The award ceremony took place in the historic Coronation Hall of Aachen City Hall, where emperors and kings received their insignia eons ago.

The winners can be admired on the EiP website.

The event was framed by a trade exhibition. Here, experts presented future-oriented products and solutions for all aspects of tool and mold making. And ‘mido’ the “Next Generation Tool Cost Calculation” was of course also there.

“We can draw a thoroughly positive conclusion,” said Teraport Managing Director Raphael Heilig after the event. “The WBA Annual Meeting offers a perfect platform for networking. Not only did we receive very good feedback on our mido solution, but we also gained many new impressions of the functions that such software will need in the future. Keywords such as “CO2 footprint”, big data and better standard manufacturer connection are just a few of the points that will soon be on the mido feature list.”

At the heart of the Formnext 2023 in Frankfurt, Teraport captivated attendees with the presentation of ‘mido’, a groundbreaking tool cost calculation software. This next-generation solution is set to transform the manufacturing industry by providing unparalleled cost transparency and efficiency in mold design.

Mido, designed to meet the sophisticated needs of both Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and leading tier-one suppliers, as well as toolmakers, stands out by its capability to directly derive cost drivers from 3D CAD models. It supports all major CAD formats, making it a universally compatible solution across the manufacturing spectrum.

The software’s innovation lies in its ability to rapidly generate a valid mold configuration for any given part, delivering results within minutes. This significant advancement enables faster, more accurate cost estimation processes, ensuring that manufacturers can achieve cost transparency earlier in the development cycle than ever before.

“Mido represents a leap forward in tool cost calculation technology,” said Philipp Hübner, Product-Manager for ‘mido’, at Teraport. “By automating the detection of cost drivers and simplifying the mold configuration process, we’re not only saving time but also enhancing the accuracy of our cost estimates. This is crucial in today’s competitive manufacturing landscape where speed and precision are key.”
