Die Design and manufacturing simulation solutions for metal forming fully integrated into CATIA V5

ESI Group's CATIA V5 PLM based metal forming portfolio provides both metal forming part designers and die designers with a powerful set of engineering solutions which addresses design and manufacturing issues directly within a powerful generative modeling PLM environment:

PAM-TFA for CATIA V5 stands for Transparent Formability Analysis integrated into the CATIA V5 environment. It is a powerful ‘inverse’ solver, offering up front part feasibility and part costing solutions.

PAM-DIEMAKER for CATIA V5 is a dedicated Workbench presented inside the CATIA V5 environment; it is a fully integrated software tool to provide trade oriented solutions for rapid Stamping tool design directly within CATIA v5.

Key Benefits:

• Speed of die face design
• Quality of surfaces
• Data management
• Data consistency
• Engineering update
• Connection to simulation
• Upfront cost-estimation
• Early feasibility
  
  
  “For SEAT’s Prototype Center of Development (CPD), the release of tools integrated into CATIA V5 such as PAM-DIEMAKER for CATIA V5, allows a rapid and accurate development of die design. It is very valuable to be able to perform the appropriate geometrical changes and to have these evolutions simultaneously available for machining within CATIA.
  This represents a tremendous advantage in terms of productivity as well as for the final quality of our design, giving us the opportunity to perform our work in a common environment during all process phases.”

  Javier Diaz Martinez,
  Manager of the Prototype Center of
  Development (CPD), SEAT S.A.

  " The simulation tool PAM-DIEMAKER for CATIA V5 gave us the opportunity to perform all the steps of our work in a single environment during all phases of the development process. This brought us more speed for our cost estimation analysis, with precise blank sizing and formability simulations. We are finally more competitive when we present an offer to our clients, having strong arguments with a quality guaranteed."
