2 Solutions Simufact.forming Benefits Reduce costs in tool and
process development through Fewer testing of tools Less production
downtime for trial runs Shorter development times Cost reduction in
serial production through: Increased tool life Optimized
utilisation of machine capacity Less material waste (optimized
material flow) Increase process stability through: Better knowledge
about details of the forming process Less faults in forming
Evaluation of more variants and risk free testing of new ideas
Process optimization through: Reduction of forming operations Less
machining Optimized material usage

3 Solutions Simufact.forming Features Simufact.forming is
extremely robust and fast to provide timely results and impact the
tooling design phase. Very easy to use interface allowing process
design engineers to optimize the manufacturing process on the
computer prior to a physical tryout. Simufact.forming has been
developed to support in all forming applications: Closed die hot
forging, cold forming, sheet forming, extrusion, drawing,
upsetting, bending, ring rolling,. Mechanical or hydraulic press,
hammer, screw press, rolling machine, orbital forging even coupled
processes and spring-controlled tools. Low-alloyed and stainless
steel, aluminium, non-ferrous metal, titanium, nickel based alloys.
