The release of CAD-integrated simulation add-ons supports the most newly-developed versions of Creo, NX, and SolidWorks and provides designers with seamless professional simulation capabilities and results.
Hsinchu, Taiwan – May 16, 2012 – CoreTech System Co., Ltd. (Moldex3D), the true 3D CAE simulation solution innovator, today announced Moldex3D eDesignSYNC R11.0, the latest release of quick design verification and optimization tools embedded in mainstream 3D digital design software, including Creo, NX, and SolidWorks. Moldex3D eDesignSYNC provides industrial designers with easy-to-use, multi-functional, and cost-effective solutions that enable synchronize design changes and evaluate manufacturability directly in their familiar design environments. Designers are able to predict and avoid potential molding defects in the earliest phase of developing plastic injection-molded products.
CAE simulation solutions have been conventionally adopted to assist part designers and mold makers to tackle molding issues more efficiently. However, scenarios usually occur where design revisions are ultimately required to solve molding defects while spending time and costs on trouble shooting. 「The integration between design and simulation brings a high-performance design platform that allows designers to examine and optimize part and mold designs seamlessly. It will enhance product quality and reduce costs through each phase of the design-to-manufacturing process,」 said Dr. Venny Yang, President of CoreTech System.
Building upon the capabilities of past releases and adding innovation, Moldex3D eDesignSYNC R11.0 offers the following features and benefits:
Pioneering CAD Interface Integration
Moldex3D eDesignSYNC R11.0 has integrated with the most newly-developed releases of 3D digital design software, including Creo 2.0, NX 8, and SolidWorks 2012. These supports will provide designers with advanced professional simulation capabilities and results, which leads users to identify and solve potential molding problems accurately and efficiently.
Flexible Feeding and Cooling Creation Tools
Designers can use native CAD tools to draw lines and set their attributes as runners or coolant channels. It is simpler and more flexible for users to design complicated feeding and cooling systems depending on their needs. Additionally, Moldex3D eDesignSYNC R11.0 supports heating rod designs and enhances user friendliness in cooling design management. Designers now can separate coolant channels into several groups and specify inlets or outlets in CAD environments, and they can even setup advanced properties, such as flow rate or temperature.
Mesh Layer Assurance
When designers select this new function in Moldex3D analysis settings, the meshing kernel will automatically check and guarantee enough number of mesh layers around critical regions of a model. It will improve mesh resolution, which helps users acquire more accurate simulation results.
Sharing Results Across Departments
Moldex3D eDesignSYNC R11.0 allows designers to generate analysis reports in HTML or PowerPoint format. Designers can easily share their ideal designs and performance with executives, suppliers, and customers. It also helps enhance communications between designers and mold makers, which will reduce the costs of repeated process condition verification and model modification.
Enhanced Analysis Management
Moldex3D eDesignSYNC R11.0 supports to create multiple analysis runs in one project. Designers can put design changes into simulation directly with the same process conditions and compare the results more efficiently. Designers also can specify a new project for another design and optimization iteration. The tree management for multiple comparative analyses will allow users to better decide the optimal model design.
Moldex3D eDesignSYNC R11.0 is now available. For pricing and more detailed product information, please contact your local sales representatives or Moldex3D sales teams at mail@moldex3d.com.
