Moulding Expo, the prominent International Trade Fair for Tool, Pattern, and Mould Making, has set its new dates: May 6-9, 2025. The event, celebrated for being a central showcase in the European tool, pattern, and mould making industry, will mark its 10th anniversary and 5th edition in 2025.

To simplify 3D CAD design for mould and die making customers, Meusburger offers standardised colour codes. Each colour represents a clearly defined tolerance, and work can be done directly from the 3D model.

The Association of German Tool and Moldmakers (VDWF) has dedicated a working group to the topic of sustainability. The participants have now jointly produced a “Compendium for the Assessment and Design of Sustainable Business Practices in Tool and Mould Making” as a guideline that supports companies in the industry.
