  Die (manufacturing) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Die operations are often performed by a specific type of die that are defined by the operation being performed.
Coining: Coining is similar to forming with the main difference being that a coining dies punch and die maintain completely different features and the coining die punch flows the metal instead of bending the blank.
Die heads are available and are commonly used for both cut threads and rolled threads.

 DMI Automotive, Inc. - Howell, MI
This property enables a chromium plated die to lose the oil film locally without scoring the panel and damage to the die surface.
Almost all manufacturers now use coated steels for corrosion resistance and double sided zinc coated steel is becoming the standard specification.
Because the die retains its original profile to within 25 µm throughout its working life the panel also maintains a constant profile.

Castings used in pressure applications are usually pressure tested to determine if the casting leaks and therefore requires impregnation, or to verify that an impregnated casting has been sealed.
Chromating is a surface treatment given to die castings to increase their resistance to corrosion.
As each casting is removed from the die, the operator examines it closely - the first in a series of quality control efforts.

 Manufacturing Engineering: EDM and hard milling boost die/mold productivity
Faced with fierce competition, US manufacturers are turning to innovative ways of producing molds and dies to meet the increasing demands of low-cost global competition.
Manufacturers in the die/mold industry have been suffering for the past few years, as the overall die/mold market has declined steadily since hitting its peak in 1999 (see the article "Productivity Will Launch the Mold/Die Turnaround" in the November 2002 issue of Manufacturing Engineering).
To thrive in today's economy manufacturers must embrace significant cost reductions and productivity improvements, which EDM and high-speed milling advocates say can be gained through upgrading to the latest available technology, as opposed to those manufacturers that continue using outdated or obsolete manufacturing equipment.

 Manufacturing Engineering: Die and mold finishing: How fast?
High-speed die and mold finish milling, at four to ten times conventional spindle speeds and feeds, is at a crossroads.
Today high-speed die and mold milling is gradually migrating from the automotive companies, where it improves die quality and throughput, to the smaller die and mold shops.
High-speed milling on the finish pass will yield a surface finish of 30mu rms or better, he reports, and the die is projected to be completed in 25 hr, instead of 52.

 MIPS architecture - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This ramping of the speed would be difficult with interlocking involved, as the time needed to set up locks is as much a function of die size as clock rate: adding the hardware needed might actually slow down the overall speed.
QED was acquired by the semiconductor manufacturer PMC-Sierra in August 2000, the latter company continuing to invest in the MIPS architecture.
Among the manufacturers which made computer workstation systems using MIPS processors are SGI, MIPS Computer Systems, Inc., Olivetti, Siemens-Nixdorf, Acer, Digital Equipment Corporation, NEC, and DeskStation.
