The Most Accurate and Advanced Forming Feasibility Solution for Product Engineers in CATIA V5
| • |
Identifies 90% of forming feasibility issues within minutes, to substantially reduce financial risks during product development |
| • |
Accurate blank size calculation to reduce development time |
| • |
Full associativity and regeneration enable a 70% productivity improvement in Engineering Efficiency to manage complex variations, as compared to non-CAAV5 products that suffer from process discontinuities |
| • |
The CAA enabled CATFORM reduces Collaboration Lag (time to communicate a change and obtain feedback), and hence results in 50% less engineering changes, since the analysis is current with the geometry |
FEATURES:
| • |
Capitalizes on the seamless integration with native geometry in CATIA V5 |
| • |
Uses the most accurate forming analysis engine and ONLY one for tight radii |
| • |
Accurately predicts feasibility of product geometry, as well as blank size, accounting for material properties, friction, and blankholder forces |
| • |
All Forming Conditions are applied to native geometry to simplify use for non specialists |
| • |
Simulation results include safety zones, forming zones, FLD, splitting, thinning, wrinkling, thickening, stress, strain, and optimal blank shape |
| • |
Tailor welded parts analysis with multiple weld lines |
| • |
Results are stored in CATAnalysis file for PLM integration eliminating multiple files |
| • |
Export Nastran file thickness results for subsequent crash analysis |
