Autodesk™ Moldflow Insight 2012

Beginning at product design and building a Moldflow product history that can be brought forward with the development of prototypes, the design and manufacturing of injection moulds and the fast identification of moulding related issues during validation and manufacturing.

Fully utilizing Moldflow software for a project, from concept to manufacture, is the most cost effective and efficient method to bring your plastic products to market.  The implementation of Moldflow™ during each of these phases can have significant benefits and cost savings from the expedient identification and solution of injection moulding issues and the optimisation of product and mould design to reduce material use and cycle times.

Flow Analysis

Flow analysis includes the filling and packing or compensation stages of the injection moulding process. These stages produce some of the most important results for evaluating a product design for injection moulding manufacturing...

Warp Analysis

warp analysis shows the deflections of the product post ejection due to polymer shrinkage, orientation, cooling differential and corner effects...

Cooling Analysis

Cooling analysis is used to evaluate and optimize cooling lane design. Working in partnership with the mould tool designer multiple cooling designs can be analyzed. This is critical to the overall process as cooling design will have an effect on part filling, the freeze times, warpage and the overall cycle time...

3D Analysis

Full 3D analysis is used for products with thick sections or large variations in wall section. The 3D analysis fully integrates with the other analysis options...
