Why Build in MCAD System?
Synchronous design and validation is
necessary for ‘Time To Market’ business.
Works within the current 3D MCAD system and users native assemblies for simulation. Reduce learning curve for new system.
CAD driven simulation. When you make a
design change in MCAD system, you see the change instantly in Form-Advisor.
Eliminate the gap between CAD and CAE, put the design and engineering decision to
the same person from day one of project.

Stamping Process Works (SPW)
The SPW module is specialized for process planners and tooling designers, to rapidly make stamping process design and generate die face for the complete stamping process.
SPW is not only used for typical one stagestamping widely but also very useful for progressive die design.
SPW can speed up the process design ten times faster compared with the traditional CAD method.
The user can generate several different tooling concepts and stages planning at very early stage and send to CAE system for validation.
