A composite molding simulation tool that proposes suitable molding plans for each molding process, taking into account the material history from molding to performance evaluation.
PAM-COMPOSITES provides modules tailored to the molding flow of composite materials, allowing for pre-simulation verification of each process, optimizing the process, and enabling full control over costs and productivity. 【Types of Simulation】 ■PAM-FORM Simulations for preforming in the RTM process, as well as thermal pressing and diaphragm molding of prepregs. ■PAM-RTM Simulations for resin infusion processes represented by RTM molding and VaRTM molding. ■PAM-DISTORTION Simulations for residual stress after curing of composite materials and dimensional changes after demolding (spring-in, spring-back). ■PAM-SMC Calculates the entire process from charge forming to flow using shell mesh (2.5D) at high speed. It is suitable for evaluating moldability in the early stages of development, allowing for easy, fast, and extensive calculations of molding conditions such as charge placement, charge thickness and number, and clamping speed. Between each module, it is possible to link the analysis of multiple manufacturing methods by transferring material histories such as fiber orientation, temperature history, and degree of cure history.

Company information
ESI Group is a leading company in "virtual prototyping," providing innovative solutions and services focused on "materials physics." We have developed unique solutions that enable the replacement of physical prototypes and experiments with virtual design, manufacturing, assembly, testing, and evaluation. Leveraging today's cutting-edge technology, ESI's virtual prototyping addresses performance evaluation throughout the product lifecycle, from the start of use to the end of life, proposing a broader concept: Product Performance Lifecycle (TM). This is achieved by creating a Hybrid Twin (TM) that utilizes simulation, physics, and data analysis, allowing for smarter product development, maintaining a connection with the actual product, and enabling performance predictions and maintenance timing throughout the product's usage period.
