Description

Cold forming tools experience significant mechanical and tribological stresses throughout their operational lifespan, which in some instances can result in premature damage to the tools. Given that these tools constitute a substantial portion of the manufacturing costs for components, it is crucial to proactively address potential issues during the design phase. The COLDFORM® software offers the ability to assess the mechanical strength of dies, thereby enhancing their longevity. It calculates stress distribution within the die, as well as monitoring deformations, wear, temperature variations, and any damage that may occur throughout the process. Furthermore, COLDFORM® can perform quick analyses by applying the stresses derived from the forming process to the tools. Additionally, the software supports coupled part/tool simulations, yielding highly accurate outcomes. With features focused on pre-stressed dies, it allows for precise assessment of the required pre-stressing for the interference fit of the tools. This capability ultimately aids manufacturers in optimizing tool performance and reducing costs associated with tool replacements.

Description

Are you in search of an engineering solution that can tackle design challenges, minimize failures and warranty expenses, expedite design processes, and seamlessly integrate with your current Windows-based 3D CAD software or function independently? SimWise 4D is tailored for design and engineering experts who are focused on creating products with assemblies of 3D components. By leveraging this innovative virtual environment to simulate your assemblies, you can foster more inventive and resilient designs while also cutting down on development time. SimWise 4D empowers you to explore the rigid body dynamics of an assembly, size components accurately, assess part interferences and collision responses, evaluate stresses caused by motion, produce physics-driven animations, and test your control systems effectively. Engineers utilize our Working Model 2D, Dynamic Designer Motion, and SimWise 4D tools to construct virtual prototypes of their mechanical designs, allowing them to rigorously evaluate performance and enhance overall product quality. Ultimately, these advancements lead to more efficient workflows and higher levels of innovation within engineering teams.
