#4904 Developing Cutting Dies for Implementation by Cut-n-Send https://sendcutsend.com/services/cnc-machining/ #4904 Descibe how I can use 3D design software and/or CNC design software to design cutting dies to be machined by https://sendcutsend.com/services/cnc-machining/ Designing cutting dies (such as clicker dies, rule dies, or embossing/debossing/leather stamping dies) for CNC machining through a service like SendCutSend requires adapting traditional die geometries to the constraints of subtractive 3-axis end-milling. 1. Select the Design Software 3D Parametric CAD (Recommended): Autodesk Fusion 360, SolidWorks, Onshape, or FreeCAD. Best for solid billet dies (e. g., machined brass or D2 steel leather stamps, embossing dies, rigid cutting dies). Allows exact draft angles, precise 3D fillets matching tool radii, and unified assembly verification. 2.5D / CNC CAD-CAM (Vector-based): Vectric Aspire/VCarve or Carbide Create. Useful if creating simple prismatic profile die...
