Exporting a surface mesh for use with Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Adviser

You can export a Surface mesh for AMA (*.amm) file to prepare a Dual Domain model for import into Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Adviser software.

The current study must include a Dual Domain meshed model for the Surface mesh for AMA (*.amm) export format option to be available.

This format allows you to export a known surface mesh from Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Insight for import into Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Adviser.

  1. Click Application button then Export Model (Export > Model).
  2. Navigate to the location where you want to store the exported file.
  3. In the Save as type drop-down list, select Surface mesh for AMA (*.amm).
  4. In the File name box, enter a name for the exported file, and then click Save.
  5. Click OK.
The new *.amm file is available for import into Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Adviser and subsequent analysis without any changes to the mesh.
Note: A Surface mesh for AMA (*.amm) file only includes the portion of the Dual Domain model that is meshed with triangles; typically this is the part only. Other model entities, such as beams, and boundary conditions, such as injection locations, are not included in this export file format.
