-
Data analysis
It is possible to predict results under new conditions without performing FEM calculations by machine learning past actual measurement data and analysis results.
-
Design of Experiments Module
By simply specifying the upper and lower limits of setting parameters, you can automatically sample parameters, execute multiple analyzes, and analyze the results.
-
Optimization Module
By setting arbitrary design variables, objective functions, and constraints, you can find the optimal design that satisfies them.
-
Geometry tool
Free edge and duplicate polygon detection and automatic
-
Heat treatment module
Various behaviors occurred during the heat treatment can be simulated based on the thermo-mechanical simulation model considering the phase transformation and important features of heat treatment such as deflection, residual stress, hardness, and structure can be predicted.
-
Microstructure prediction
It supports from classic JMAK models to the latest CA Cellular Automata
-
Material suite
You can create useful functions and models for microstructural evaluation to predict material properties and more.
-
Inverse heat
Measured temperatures can be used to optimize temperature-dependent heat transfer coefficients.
Basic function
-
User interface
The UI allows you to intuitively understand the functions with icons and images, so even beginners can easily operate it.
-
Template
A template (wizard format) is provided for each machining process, so you can easily set up the analysis.
-
Linkage between 2D and 3D
Easily convert 2D models to 3D models. Facilitates comparison of 2D and 3D results for broader analysis.
-
Mesh
It is possible to adjust the mesh size by direct user definition. It also has a remeshing function that reconfigures the mesh only for the necessary parts.
-
Strong coupling (Large scale)
Strong coupled analysis is supported, allowing simultaneous analysis of formability and die deflection.
-
Solver
Equipped with a solver that supports large-scale analysis (more than 1 million elements). You can select the most suitable analysis method depending on your purpose.
-
RSE (Rigid Super Element) method
The parts other than the deformed parts can be treated as rigid bodies, and the model size can be greatly reduced.
-
Implicit method/Explicit method
It supports implicit method as well as explicit method.
-
ALE Analysis
The application of the ALE solution technique improves the efficiency of analytical calculations. It can be applied to analysis of rotation, extrusion, and cutting, and applies analysis techniques tailored to the characteristics of each process.
-
Abundant material data
We have data for about 150 steel types for cold working and about 300 steel types for hot working, including steel, aluminum, stainless steel, and copper.
-
Create new library
Since any library can be created, it is possible to import retained data.
-
Material data prediction
Predict deformation resistance from chemical composition, temperature range, strain rate, and strain.
-
Dimension measurement
You can measure the geometrical dimensions of the analysis result shape and compare it with the target shape.
-
Automatic reporting
A report PDF or PPT can be automatically created according to a preset template.
-
Flow net
You can specify any net grid, vertical line, horizontal line, circle, etc. and see how its shape changes.
-
Slice
You can slice in any plane. You can check the state variables strain, stress, etc. of the sliced cross section.
-

Use multiple processors (cores) when performing calculations to improve calculation efficiency.
-
Floating License
Licenses can be managed on a single server and shared by any PC o the same network.
-
Batch Queue
You can schedule analysis calculations and run multiple analysis jobs in sequence.
