FASTFORM evaluates and validates
the formability of product and tooling designs
- Predicts product and process feasibility
- Eliminates risk by identifying formability issues
up-front
- Quickly identifies splitting, wrinkling, and
thinning
- Reduces process development time by accurately
sizing blanks
- FASTFORM evaluates and validates
the formability
FASTFORM provides product and die
designers with fast formability analysis for evaluation
and validation of stamped components. Try-out simulations
are based on either the component geometry for early
feasibility or on the full tool, taking blank holder
force, drawbeads, and pressure pads into account for
improved reliability.
FASTFORM accurately determines
if a component can be stamped consistently with minimum
cost, while fulfilling all product performance requirements.
FEATURES:
- Develops accurate blank shapes for improved material
utilization
- Introduces feasibility criteria during early
product development
- Results provide guidelines for material selection,
blank size, binder & pressure pad force, and
drawbead layout
- Simplifies results interpretation by providing
graphical display of safety zones, forming zones,
splitting, wrinkling, and thinning
- Customizable materials database provides flexibility
required to simulate any material
- HTML-based report generation summarizes the product
development process
- Fast, intuitive interface makes the software
extremely user-friendly
