Unlock Moldex3D’s advanced capabilities for accurate compression molding simulation — from defect prediction to process optimization — and learn how to streamline your manufacturing workflow. Compression molding remains a cornerstone for high-volume, cost-effective production of composite and polymer parts. However, challenges such as insufficient material, improper force application, flash defects, uneven fiber orientation or residual stress often lead to quality issues.

With Moldex3D’s Compression Molding module, you can:

  • Predict potential molding defects (e.g., flashing, surface imperfections, residual stresses) before tooling.
  • Optimize process parameters including compression speed, force, and mold temperature.
  • Simulate both thermoset and thermoplastic — including fiber-reinforced polymers (e.g. GMT, LFT) — enabling versatility for a wide range of applications.
  • Accelerate development by reducing physical mold trials, saving cost and time while improving first-time-right rates.

Whether you are in automotive, electronics, consumer products, or other industries using compression molding, whether you are tooling engineer, process engineer, design engineer, manufacturing leads or managers — this webinar will provide valuable insight.


What Attendees Will Learn?

  • Introduction to Compression Molding Simulation in Moldex3D — what’s possible now with the latest tools.
  • Understanding common compression-molding defects and how simulation predicts them (e.g. flash, improper fill, residual stress, fiber orientation issues).
  • How to optimize process parameters (compression speed, force, mold temperature) to reduce defects and improve part consistency.
  • Case study: real-world example showing defect prediction, parameter tuning, and final result validation.
