Sheet Metal Forming Simulation
Case Studies

Malben Engineering Case Study 

Our goal was to use simulation to engineer a solution to the client's existing formability problem - splits. We were able to successfully solve the problem through simulation.  

Simulation Videos

Figure 1: The Problem
The part shows three very prominent splits.

Figure 2: The Problem Predicted in Simulation
Simulation was used to replicate the problem.

Figure 3: Draw Pre-Form shape
An extra stage was added using a pre-form shape in order to fix the problem.

Final Form
The customer's feedback confirms the result: "I decided to modify the 1st stage form tool, as per your recommendation, and the proposal was successful."
