Description

FORGE® serves as a premier software solution for simulating both hot and cold forming processes, having established itself as the flagship product of Transvalor for nearly 35 years while gaining a global customer base. This software effectively addresses the requirements of companies that manufacture forged components across various industrial domains. Among its standout features is point tracking, which facilitates the identification of cold-shut regions within the component and predicts metal fibering, a critical aspect for ensuring that the forgings exhibit excellent mechanical characteristics. It also employs advanced marking techniques to visualize segregations found at the core of the billet and to pinpoint flow-through anomalies. Furthermore, FORGE® provides forecasts for forging loads, energy consumption, torques, and the power required during each deformation process, enabling users to assess whether the demands on their equipment are acceptable, optimize the distribution of forging loads across different phases, and identify potential issues related to die balancing and deflection. With its comprehensive capabilities, FORGE® empowers manufacturers to enhance their production efficiency and product quality significantly.

Description

Simcenter MotionSolve provides engineers with the tools to accurately forecast the dynamic performance of intricate mechanical systems through multibody dynamics simulation. By facilitating early assessment of mechanisms and accounting for real-world factors like contact interactions and material flexibility, it minimizes the need for extensive physical testing. Engineers can effectively mechanize CAD models to analyze the operational dynamics of various mechanisms, explore design alternatives, and determine the appropriate fidelity level for predicting loads essential for subsequent finite element analyses, including evaluations of strength and fatigue. The platform offers comprehensive multibody dynamics simulations that calculate critical parameters such as motion, forces, accelerations, and reactions, enabling engineers to comprehend mechanism performance under realistic operating scenarios. Furthermore, Simcenter MotionSolve accommodates flexible bodies, integrating elastic deformation with rigid-body motion to ensure that factors such as stiffness and compliance are accurately represented, which is crucial when these elements significantly affect the overall performance of the system. This robust capability allows for more precise design optimization and enhances engineers’ understanding of complex interactions within mechanical systems.
