Cranes Releases eta/DYNAFORM v5.7 for Die
Analysis
 BANGALORE,
India, Jun 16, 2009 – Cranes Software announces the latest release of its
powerful die analysis solution, eta/DYNAFORM Version 5.7. This release has
over 90 new and enhanced features. While maintaining its status as the most
cost-effective solution of its type it features the addition of over 50 new
steel and aluminum materials, an expanded Die Structural Analysis module, as
well as a host of new and improved functions.
“DYNAFORM’s expanded Die Structural Analysis
(DSA) module will surely help to increase
manufacturing efficiency and productivity.
Within DSA, a scrap shedding and removal
function can help prevent line shutdown caused
by the failure of scrap to exit the
workstation,” said Abraham Keisoglou, Head,
Cranes Engineering Group.
Also incorporated in the expanded DSA module is the ability to simulate
the transfer of metal as it progresses through the manufacturing process and
to predict interference between the work-piece and tools from simulated part
deformation. Additionally, the module allows the user to simulate
operational loads to analyze die structural integrity and generate FEA
models of the structure.
Several new and enhanced Pre and Post Processing features are also
included in this newest release. Some examples include a new tonnage
prediction function, the ability to free format input into the material
library and an enhanced meshing tool which allows the user better control
over small size parts.
DYNAFORM’s quick and easy AutoSetup feature includes an enhanced function
to edit single point constraints (SPCs), which now supports tube symmetry
for hydro-forming and also offers automatic calculation of adaptive
frequency based on tool travel distance.
Development of the popular Blank Size Engineering (BSE) and Die Face
Engineering (DFE) modules has also been advanced. New functions include
Quick Unfold, Batch BSE, Batch MSTEP, Sidestep, Double-Attach Tipping,
Fillet Mesh, Double Fill, Die Trim and Addendum Control Profile.
