Autodesk Moldflow Adviser review
Moldflow Adviser into your electronic layout process to use industry-leading tools in mold and plastic mold design and injection molding. Different applications allow you to work on your local computer, as well as use the cloud for additional capacity.
Features:
Additional capabilities in filling analysis
Module Simulation Moldflow Adviser Premium allows to carry out the analysis of filling taking into account influence of gating system, to carry out calculation of gating channels for not heated (cold channel), heated (hot channel) and combined (cold channel and hot channel) gating systems, to carry out balancing of gating channels for castings with several inlets, and also for multi-cavity and group forms.
Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Adviser Ultimate
Simulation Moldflow Adviser Ultimate module is designed for injection mold cavity filling stage analysis with thermoplastic melt on product model without gating system and with gating system, mold seal and cooling analysis, mold cooling analysis, casting warp analysis. The Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Adviser Ultimate module includes the Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Adviser Premium and provides additional features discussed below.
Mould Seal and Cooling Analysis
Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Adviser Ultimate allows you to simulate the staging and cooling stages of injection molding thermoplastics. The calculation can be performed at constant exposure pressure, using a step profile, and a profile with linear change in exposure pressure. There is a possibility of the analysis with automatic definition of time of an endurance on cooling.
As a result of modelling, the volume shrinkage distribution is calculated.
Injection mold cooling analysis
Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Adviser Ultimate simulates the mold heat transfer process based on the design of the cooling system. Mould cooling analysis assesses mold cooling irregularities, optimizes cooling channel design and mold cooling technology (refrigerant flow and temperature) to ensure uniform cooling of the castings and reduce the mold cycle, and defines mold thermostat requirements.
Warp analysis
Warpage analysis includes casting deformation analysis as well as warpage cause analysis. Calculations can be made using residual deformation and residual stresses methods.
Orientation analysis of the fibrous filler
This type of analysis is used for polymer materials containing short rigid fibers (glass fiber, carbon fiber, etc.) and allows to take into account the orientation of the filler particles in the polymer matrix in the analysis of warping.
Analysis technologies
In module Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Adviser Standard the analysis is carried out with use of technology of modelling Dual-Domain on the grid constructed on a cover of the volume model. In modules Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Adviser Premium and Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Adviser Ultimate for the analysis can be applied technology of 3D modelling (3D) and Dual-Domain.
Preparing a geometric model
The interfaces built in the basic program modules (STL, Autodesk Inventor, SAT, STEP, IGES, SOLIDWORKS, Creo Elements/Pro, NX, CATIA, Parasolid) provide reading of model of a moulding product practically from any systems of the automated designing.
The model of gating system, cooling system and other elements of the mold necessary for the analysis of mold cooling is under construction in Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Adviser.
Module Autodesk Simulation Moldflow CAD Doctor helps to eliminate defects of CAD-models.
Simultaneous computations and graphical processor-based calculations
Supports parallel and double precision calculations on NVIDIA-type GPUs with CUDA technology and AMD with OpenCL technology.
Databases
The main software modules include a standard Moldflow database containing more than 8900 polymer grades.
The user has the possibility to create and edit his databases.
Database of domestic thermoplastic materials (includes more than 250 marks) is supplied by CSoft company.
