Minnesota Tool & Die get great parts at first try out


Case Study Overview

The client required a successful forming process, to form the provided 3D Part Geometry.

  • Part Geometry
    Back to Top Part Geometry

  • Splits are predicted
    Back to Top Splits are predicted

    Initially a single stage draw was simulated, to determine if the part required more than one forming stage.

  • Pre-Form Shape
    Back to Top Pre-Form Shape

    A pre-form shape was engineered, to form the part in TWO stages.

  • Pre-Form Simulation
    Back to Top Pre-Form Simulation shows SAFE

    The simulation predicted FAILURE in a single stage. The two stage approach showed SUCCESS.

  • Pre-Form shapes
    Back to Top Actual Pre-Form shape is SAFE

  • Simulations
    Back to Top Simulation predicts a successful part

  • Final form safe
    Back to Top The Part is formed successfully

    The client tooled the process and achieved success at FIRST TRYOUT.
