AutoForm Online Services
AutoForm offers online services to target the needs of small and
mid-sized enterprises worldwide and to promote the benefits of
simulation technology to the stamping industry at any time and
from any location.
The e-commerce solution EasyStamping.com is developed in
partnership with StampingSimulation.com and features a mix of both
software products and online engineering services.
Software Products
EasyBlank calculates blank shapes and material costs, and optimizes
material yield. The application is free to download and use, and reports
can be purchased online. Buying the report gives the customer the right to
use the results for commercial purposes. EasyBlank rapidly calculates the
developed blank outline from CAD geometry and determines the optimal nesting
layout, using the well known AutoForm simulation technology. The
reports contain detailed information on material consumption, thinning
distribution of the part, blank outline and optimal nesting layout.
The benefits for the user are early cost analysis, minimization
of material costs, usage and scrap.
Engineering Services
SimulateLite and SimulateComplete are provided as online engineering services
for tool makers who have no access to world class forming simulation
technology.
SimulateLite allows any tool maker to test their die face or process design
in the virtual world, before any steel is cut. The simulation identifies any
predicted forming problems, with the objective to solve these by simulating
ideas and countermeasures in the virtual environment, thereby proving the
design before committing to costly tooling fabrication.
SimulateComplete allows anyone to design and develop a successful forming
process starting from just the product design geometry. The product design
geometry is turned into die face geometry and used in simulation to develop a
forming process.
