Press analysis that can be used with surprisingly simple operations, requiring no FEM knowledge. Reduces the need for trial runs with actual machines, lowering the time and cost for creating press molds.
【Easy Operation】 Preparation for executing analysis involves only the operation of setting up a blank and assembling the process. 【High-Speed Calculation】 The calculation speed is extremely fast due to unique methods in addition to general computational acceleration. 【From Rough to Detailed】 In shell element analysis, a rough understanding of phenomena occurring in the forming process is obtained. This is followed by solid element analysis, which accurately predicts the details of the molding process. 【Springback and Springforward】 Calculations are performed not only for springback due to forming but also for springback caused by trimming and cutting processes. Springforward calculations are also performed to determine mold shapes that take springback deformation into account. 【Trimming Optimization】 A function to properly adjust the material extraction of the blank. By inputting the initial shape of the blank and the target shape after forming, an appropriate blank shape is calculated. 【CAD Interface】 The mold shape required for forming utilizes CAD data. In addition to industry-standard formats like Para Solid and Step, it can also read Siemens NX and Dassault CatiaV5.

basic information
【Number of CPUs】 Equipped with multi-CPU computing capabilities that demonstrate power in large-scale models. The license price remains constant regardless of the number of CPUs. 【Simple Blank Configuration】 The contour shape of the blank can be read in IGES or DXF format. The type of element can be selected from shell or solid. Mesh generation can be either automatic or based on provided data from a material database or custom data for material settings. 【Diverse Molds】 Supports not only single-action molds but also multi-forming, progressive, and transfer molds. It also features a cam function linked to the sliding of the upper mold. 【Automatic Placement】 Users can place the mold elements for forming, such as punches, dies, pads, and cam-linked punches, at the bottom dead center. The blank can be positioned at any height. The analysis calculation automatically places the blank and mold elements at a height where they do not mutually contact. 【Differentiation Between Shell and Solid Elements】 The behavior of the blank during the forming process can be roughly understood through shell analysis. However, for issues often overlooked in shell element analysis, such as deformations exceeding forming limits in localized areas, edge cracks occurring in the blank contour, and handling in mold spaces smaller than the sheet thickness, analysis using solid elements is necessary.

Applications/Examples of results
It is believed that having the latest processing machines and software will improve efficiency and profitability. However, in reality, the results have not been as significant. The problem lies with the "people" who cannot fully utilize these latest tools. Therefore, GENIO Solutions has developed "SEDS" to enhance the added value for our customers. SEDS is a program that cultivates "expert engineers" together with our clients. It progresses work while solving various problems that arise from work procedures and methods. This raises the capabilities necessary for engineers, such as "design know-how/skills/analysis techniques/CAD/CAM/new technologies/process analysis." SEDS increases corporate results and value by producing specialists. [SEDS Examples] ■ Support for early software launch ■ Contract analysis support ■ Achieving up to 80% reduction in trial attempts through operational support
