Our Services
Tool Design
The ECCI Design team is composed of highly diverse computer professionals that specialize in tool design. We have selected CATIA, as our primary tool design software, for its superior capability to surface, design, program and draft. Our staff has extensive knowledge in design and manufacturing of the tool processes below:
Aerospace
Assembly Tooling: Floor Assembly Jigs (FAJ), Assembly Jigs (AJ), and Weld Assembly Jigs.
Automated Tooling: Air Assisted Holding Fixtures, Robotic Weld Lines, and Automated Assembly Stations.
Composite Tooling: Master Model Design, Bond Tools, Compression Molds, Lay-up and Cure Tools and RTM Tooling.
Fixtures and Jigs: Master Gages, CMM Inspection Fixtures, Mill Fixtures, Check Gages, Drill and Trim Fixtures.
Form Tools: Stretch-form Dies, Forming Dies, Prog-dies, and Stamping Dies.
Proficient in both metal and composite tooling design, ECCI is capable of manufacturing complete tooling families from concept to production.
Automotive
Sub-Assembly Tooling: Sub-Assembly Fixutes, Welding, Piercing and Support Tooling.
Automated Tooling: Fully Automatic Weld-Lines, Robotic Weld Lines, and Automated Assembly Equipment.
Gages: CMM Check Fixtures & Gages.
N/C Programming
ECCI established its excellent reputation in the engineering community by being involved with the N/C programming of CNC machines, a special area of expertise. Our goal is to alleviate the gap from the design room to the N/C machine. This ensures the design model is machined with the respect to all aspects of the design intent.
2-axis Programming: Profile programming for templates and egg-create water-jet.
3-axis Programming: Programming for profiles and contours for details and mold tools.
4-axis Programming: Programming for part production shops using a machine cube to rotate multiple parts to the spindle for machining.
5-axis Programming: Programming of horizontal and vertical 5-axis machines.
Multi-axis Programming: The programming of multi-axis machines with integrated part shuttle systems.
Surface Development
We have worked with our customers in the development of OML surface data for the complete outer skin of a small corporate jet on the large scale to product development of golf club heads for rapid prototyping. The creation of these complex surfaces require our designers to understand curvature, tangencies, and parametric conic shapes, This discipline allows for the understanding and interaction of solid modeling and surfacing required o complete complex tooling.
