The metal forming simulation tool with a practical focus for economical productivity is finally here. Dynaform 7 adds a powerful new Die Face Design module, allowing for easy and intuitive die-face creation. Engineers can quickly simulate and evaluate designs for a more reliable, efficient process that speeds up the estimation and tool-building process.
Die Design Made Easy
The complete die face engineering package facilitates tooling design by using the part geometry. Offers a NURBS surface-based infrastructure and interfaces with all major CAD codes to produce high quality CAD surfaces.
Automated tools minimize design work
Generate and finely tuned binder surfaces, addendum profiles/surfaces, PO line and layout draw beads using automated tools in CAD surface and CAE mesh environments. Minimize die design work with automated tipping, reverse trimming, undercut/draw depth calculation, fileting, and un-flanging.
Use part geometry for binder and addendum surface generation
Create, edit and morph binder surfaces using part geometry with the addendum generator. Create a series of profiles base on draw depths and part shape between the binder and the die cavity. Mesh and surface the profiles to create a complete addendum for forming, and edit using interactive functions or by adjusting the shape of the PO line.
Parametrically define addendum profiles
Addendum profiles are parametrically defined for quick adjustments by editing parameters
Associativity automatically extends changes
Parametrically defined surfaces and profiles mean binder surfaces, addendum profiles/surfaces and PO line are fully associated. Modify one entity and it automatically extends to the other entities.
Efficiency and profit-driving modules that Dynaform has delivered for 30 years
TBF / Tube Bending & Forming
Process setup and simulation for tube-bending and forming processes. Based on product geometry, TBF can automatically (or manually) setup tube-bending and hydroforming processes, generating tooling and validation processes.
- Automatic Bending Process
- Bending Table Tools
- Geometry & Automation Tools
- Center Line Calculation
Formability Simluation
Dynaform’s forming simulation software makes it possible to uncover design flaws early in the process. Using the various modules, engineers can more-fully evaluate alternative–and unconventional–designs. Doing so helps ensure higher-quality outcomes.
- Springback
- Springback Compensation
- Drawbead Optimization
Blank & Trimeline Development
Determine a blank’s optimal shape and size before producing any physical parts. Accurately predict the deformation, thinning, and stretching that will occur during the forming process to determine the initial size and shape of the blank. Predict the final shape and contour of a part after trimming, ensuring that final part meets your specifications and quality standards.
