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
SolidFEA is a groundbreaking solid finite element analysis tool that aims to make sophisticated structural engineering design both more accessible and cost-effective. Utilizing the Calculix engine, it provides in-depth sub-model analysis while requiring less financial investment and computing power compared to competitors such as Abaqus. This software is particularly well-suited for tackling intricate engineering challenges, such as those found in steel connections and bridge engineering, and it empowers users by making specialized software easier to access. With its ability to import IFC file formats, SolidFEA integrates smoothly into existing engineering workflows, enhancing the functionality of our GenFEA software for thorough structural analysis. By lowering entry barriers traditionally tied to solid finite element analysis (FEA), SolidFEA represents a significant advancement in structural engineering design and encourages innovation by allowing more engineers to participate in complex projects. Ultimately, its user-friendly design and compatibility features facilitate a new era of efficiency in engineering practices.
