Abstract: In order to solve the design and NC machining problems of the blowing plastic mould for plastic bucket, the parting quickly and antomatic programming technology of Cimatron software were applied in the design and manufacturing. After the analysis of the feature of plastic bucket parts and technics of plastic, the methods and techniques that were used to design and CNC machining parting quickly were researched by Cimatron software on the basis of a three-dimensional model. The experimental results show that this method has some advantages in saving time and ensuring precision. Moreover, a kind of method is quested for the design and manufacturing of similar mould, which is a beneficial reference to the others.
