  • A Tailored and Unified Simulation Environment to Assess Manufacturing Feasibility for Popular Methods-of-Manufacture
       
    This unified environment for virtual manufacturing simulates the stamping, extrusion, molding, forging and friction stir welding processes in a single graphical user interface (GUI).

    It leverages the strength of HyperWorks' automation language to deliver process-driven workflows for specific methods of manufacture. These process-centric automations increase the understanding and ease-of-use for CAE and non-CAE user communities to improve product manufacturability and process efficiency. Solutions include:

    Sheet metal forming and hydroforming
    Aluminum and polymer extrusion
    Injection molding
    Friction stir welding
    Plant productivity analysis and optimization
