The Material Cost Reduction Tool for Estimators, Product and
Tool Engineers


The most accurate and speedy tool for RFQ generation; on average 24% of RFQs are late
Identifies critical product and process design changes to yield a 5-15% material cost reduction
The ONLY Regenerative Forming Feasibility and Associated Costing solution; the result is 70% productivity improvement in evaluating multiple costing scenarios
Identifies 90% of forming feasibility issues within minutes, to substantially reduce financial risks and draw die development time

FEATURES:
Designed for fast and accurate blank generation, nest evaluation and material cost reductions; uses the most accurate blank development engine as well as the most accurate nesting engine
Simulates multiple costing scenarios in minutes
Produces fully optimized blanks and nesting layouts for cut-off dies, one-up, two-up, and mirrored nesting configuration
Best in Class Skinning tool to convert from Solid into Skin, based on unique topology tool
Forming Conditions – Best in Class tools to simulate blankholder forces, drawbeads, pressure pads, pilot holes, and constraints
Springback - Determine the final part shape resulting from springback, with or without trimming
Tailor Welded Parts - Define additional materials for different areas of the part
Cut Off Dies - 5 standard blank outlines are available
User Defined Blank – to allow formability based on pre-defined blank size
