Resin Transfer Molding for 3D meshes
In the RTM (Resin Transfer Molding) and SRIM (Structural Reaction Injection Molding) analyses, resin is forced to flow through a cavity in which reinforcing preform (also called fiber mat) is present.
Wall slip
When wall slip occurs in industrial applications such as polymer extrusion, powder injection molding, or micro-injection molding processes, it may affect the throughput and the quality of the final product. Modeling wall slip in plastic molding simulations helps improve the accuracy of the analysis and could predict part surface defects.
CAD Geometry Editing tools
The new Modify CAD Surfaces tools have been included to enable you to edit your CAD geometry directly within Autodesk Moldflow Synergy.
CAD Geometry Modifications as Parametric Optimization Variables
The changes you make with the new CAD geometry editing tools are recognized by the Parametric Study builder as variables. This enables you to optimize both the process settings and the geometry to find the best solution for your situation.
3D residual stress model
The 3D residual stress model is a shrinkage model to calculate initial stresses as the driving force for the shrinkage and warpage of an injection-molded plastics part in a 3D solution.
