Die Face Design
ESI Group's CATIA V5 PLM based metal forming portfolio provides 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 fully integrated workbench inside the CATIA V5 environment (including a seamless link to simulation) dedicated to die face design. It guides the user through the die face design process (tipping, binder design, addendum design, trimline development, ...) with powerful and trade-oriented functionalities, from upfront feasibility studies to full final validation.
Key Benefits:
- Super fast Die surface engineering based on B-spline geometry
- Two operation modes: Product development (feasibility) or tooling
- You work in CATIA with a CATIA database
- You can use PAM-DIEMAKER or native CATIA functions
- No more hold when you need to modify the part geometry
- Fast and robust part replace
- Direct link with PAM-STAMP and highly automated data transfer
- Fastest solver in the market, for feasibility as well as formability (make the test!)
- Best simulation quality in the market
Customer Successes
"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."
"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."
