FEATURES

• Simulation of filling and packing of parts with inserts and overinjected parts
  
• Calculation of shrinkage & warpage under consideration of the mechanical and thermal behaviour of the inserts or overinjected parts
  
• Consideration of multiple inserts made of different materials possible
  
• Consideration of fibers in injected part & insert and overinjected part
  
• Consideration of thermal coupling of part & insert and overinjected part
  
• Definition of start temperatures (e.g. constant or read in from simulation of first shot in Rotary Table Mould)
  
• Mechanical coupling of part & insert at contact surfaces
  
• Automatic identification of contact areas
  
• Automatic mapping of Finite Element meshes
  
• Ideal adhesion at contact area; deformation same for part & insert
  
• Validated with test shots in special test mould at TNO, NL and industrial project partners
  
• Very user friendly (Microsoft^® Windows^® GUI)

ADVANTAGES

• Cost savings by reduction of fixing loops
  
• Detection of reasons for shrinkage & warpage of parts with inserts and overinjected parts and determination of possible solutions.
  
• Determination of influence of inserts or overinjected parts on warpage of the assembly
  
• Determination of influence of temperature res. temperature history of inserts or overinjected parts
  
• Substantially less fixing work of the mould for an optimal assembly quality
  
• Early detection of possible problems (FMEA) and elimination of failure causes
  
• More precise evaluation of the project costs
  
• Faster and better founded quotation assessment and preparation
  
• Better negotiation position by shrinkage & warpage results, filling patterns, air traps, weld lines, etc.
  
• Professional presentation at the customer to be able to adapt to customer wishes on site
  
• Easy to use – fast to learn
