The Hamburg-based software company Simufact Engineering announce new version simulation Simufact.welding. Providing more functionality for a broader scope of application while offering a simplified usability - that´s the credo of the new software versions that employed for the design and optimization of manufacturing techniques in metal processing.
With the new Simufact software releases, companies aiming to link various production processes in the process chain (from semi-finished material to finished component) have come closer to their goal of an integrated, cross-process approach in the simulation of entire process chains.
Simufact.welding 3.1 – more than welding simulation
Simufact.welding 3.1 enables the simulation of various welding methods. Cutting edge solver technology and a user friendly overall concept allow for an effective calculation of welding sequences and a realistic prediction of component distortion, also taking into account microstructural transformations.
The coupling of Simufact.welding with Simufact.forming is a new functionality linking different process chains. Thus, processes taking place before or after welding can be efficiently integrated in the numerical approach. Easy data transfer allows for consideration of the forming history and the strength analyses of the simulated welding seams. The calculation of phase transformation and phase volume fractions, as well as the automatic mapping of weld filler metals complement the new features. Simufact.welding 3.1 provides the user with a simple and comfortable modelling of more complex welding seams, even the simulation of multi-layer welding is now possible. Last but not least, the new release offers an improved calculation of contacts for process related gap formation during the welding process.
