FEATURES

• Results of the filling and heating phase (e.g.): filling pattern, pressure distribution, scorch, curing rate, temperatures, flow front velocity, clamping force e.g. also on cores and sliders
  
• Display of air trapes and weld lines
  
• Determination of heating time and curing rate
  
• Geometry input by STL files (other formats optional)
  
• Easy modification of the wall-thickness of the part (independant of CAD system), definition of geometries surface e.g. for faster thickness variations
  
• Automatic gate finder for one or several injection points (allowed areas selectable)
  
• Dimensioning of the runner system (cold/ hot) and gates
  
• Input of runner manually in the system or by IGES file
  
• Design of family and multi cavity moulds
  
• Automatic runner balancing
  
• Parameter variation with easy result comparision
  
• Injection flow rate profiles
  
• Calculation of post curing after demoulding
  
• Calculation of forces and momentum defined on sections
  
• Internal, editable material data base for input of own mixtures including 11 generic materials for most common mixtures, therefore immediately usable
  
• Representation of animated results, also in 3D cuts
  
• Automatic and configurable report generator
  
• Fast and exact calculation with patented 3D-F process
  
• Very user friendly (Microsoft^® Windows^® GUI)
  
• Expandable to other Cadmould 3D-F modules

ADVANTAGES

• Significant cost and time saving
  
• Cost and time saving by optimization of machine utilisation ratio, extension of mould lifetime, improved labour allocation and reduction of start-up scrap
  
• Reduction of delivery times (set-up, initiation and down times)
  
• Reduction of mould trial loops
  
• Evalution of variants in early design stages concerning functionallity, design as well as injection moulding and heating time optimised realisation
  
• More precise evalution of the project costs
  
• Early detection of possible problems (FMEA) and elimination of failure causes
  
• Support of mould and part cost assessment
  
• Faster and better founded quotation assessment and preparation
  
• Professional presentation at the customer to be able to adapt to customer wishes on side
  
• Better nogotiation position by filling patterns, air trap, curing distribution and history, etc.
  
• Easy to use - fast to learn
