Autodesk Simulation Moldflow

Autodesk® Simulation Moldflow® Plastic injection molding simulation software provides tools that help manufacturers validate and optimize the design of plastic parts and injection molds by accurately predicting the plastic injection molding process. Companies worldwide use Autodesk® Simulation Moldflow® Adviser and Autodesk® Simulation Moldflow® Insight software to help reduce the need for costly physical prototypes, avoid potential manufacturing defects, and get innovative products to market faster.

Multi-CAD Import
As with all Autodesk® Simulation software, Simulation Moldflow enables you to evaluate a range of potential plastic part designs regardless of where the 3D CAD data comes from. Autodesk® Subscription customers who purchase a license of Simulation Moldflow 2013 can import Rhino, Alias, and NX files directly into Simulation Moldflow. The files can then be managed and tracked using Autodesk® Vault software, also a new 2013 capability.
Autodesk Moldflow: Transient Cooling of Plastic Injection Molds

Transient Heating & Cooling of Plastic Injection Molds
Determine temperature variation in an injection mold during a plastic injection molding cycle. Predict the number of cycles required from production startup until the mold reaches a stable temperature. Simulation Moldflow 2013 includes support for rapid temperature cycling and enhanced mold heating elements.
Autodesk Moldflow: Fiber Orientation in Plastic Part Designs

Fiber Orientation in Plastic Part Designs
More accurately predict the orientation of short and long glass fibers—including long fiber Breakage—which is critical to the overall performance, shape, strength, and weight of reinforced plastic parts. The resulting material properties can then be sent to Autodesk Simulation for accurate mechanical performance Analysis. With Simulation Moldflow 2013, you can predict fiber orientation for reactive molding products.
