Beyond
MoldflowXpress: Step Up to MoldflowWorks™
for SolidWorks 2005
Features
- Analyze
the flow of melted plastic through an
individual part using single or multiple
injection locations
- Specify
analysis parameters for injection pressure
limit, melt temperature, mold temperature
and injection time
- Results
indicate whether the part will fill based
on geometry, material, injection location
and analysis parameters, including a maximum
injection pressure limit
- Generate
Moldflow's unique Confidence of Fill plot
which quickly identifies areas of the
part that will be difficult to fill
- Visualize
the flow of plastic as it fills the part
- Non-Newtonian,
non-isothermal flow solver engine that
assumes plastic melt compressibility
- Expanded
results including pressure and temperature
plots and weld-line and airtrap locations
Here
are the top reasons why you should
upgrade:
|
1 |
See
how grade-specific material data gives
you even more accurate results |
| When
it comes to CAE simulation, the most
accurate results are obtained when
using grade-specific material data.
This is especially true for plastics,
which can have significantly different
flow properties from one grade to
the next. Step up to MoldflowWorks™
and access the world's largest and
most complete material database for
plastics flow simulation with more
than 7,800 fully-characterized thermoplastic
material grades from over 300 of the
world's leading material suppliers. |
2 |
Consider
manufacturing constraints while you
design the part |
| Optimize
the part design to obtain balanced
and uniform pressure distributions
within the mold cavities. Validate
designs for manufacturability by matching
your analysis maximum injection pressure
limits to actual machine capabilities.
Also, view pressure result plots to
gain valuable insight as to where
to move injection locations or modify
part geometry to achieve balanced
and uniform pressure distributions,
minimizing the chances of part warpage. |
3 |
Get
fast, easy-to-understand results |
| Moldflow's
unique Confidence of Fill plot is
an intuitive and easy-to-understand
graphical result that indicates the
manufacturability of a part design
based on the filling pattern, injection
pressure, and flow front temperature.
You can quickly gauge the impact of
critical design decisions without
having to wade through complex technical
results. |
4 |
Improve
visual part quality |
| Weld
lines, air traps and sink marks often
occur in injection molded parts and
these may cause visual defects. Gone
unchecked, your part designs will
not be produced with acceptable quality
levels. Predict these potential defects
using MoldflowWorks™ and determine
methods to minimize or eliminate them
altogether. |
