Fast, Easy, Accurate and Affordable

Streamlined Stamping SimulationClick2Form allows users to better design products while reducing lead time by enabling early consideration of formability, process parameters, material utilization, and cost.

“Click2Form is a valuable tool to check part formability, material utilization, and process feasibility for stamping. The user interface and workflow to go from CAD to f inal results is really simple and intuitive for beginners as well as experts.”

DR. ATANU MAITYHead, Engineering Design Group.CMERI

solidThinking® Click2Form is a designer friendly sheet metal forming sof tware for simulation driven design and manufacturing, that considers early formability, material utilization, and cost. The simplified user interface allows beginners and experts alike to evaluate stamping feasibility within seconds, predict potential failure areas, and iterate the design to improve formability. Click2Form has comprehensive capabilities to calculate the optimal blank shape and the best layout for blank nesting with associated material cost.

Click2Form BenefitssolidThinking Click2Form enables part designers to evaluate the manufacturability of their designs and process designers to estimate

process parameters early in the development cycle to avoid costly trials downstream. Click2Form creates an automatic report for blank

fit and nesting, to help maximize material utilization and reduce cost.

MINIMAL TRAINING WITH MAXIMUM BENEFITBy focusing on ease of use and managing all complexities in the background, Click2Form eliminates the costly and time

consuming training most other sheet metal forming simulation software requires.
