| Stampack | Sheet Metal Forming Simulation Software for Tool Designers

Stampack is practical software oriented to product and process design engineers so that knowledge and experience of finite element analysis (FEA) is not required.

Most of the simulation definition work is automated leaving engineers to concentrate on the engineering problems and solutions rather than on the numerical parameters.

Stampack provides a practical method for almost eliminating the creation of physical prototypes and thereby reducing time and money required in getting the product into the market.

Features & Benefits

Formability Analysis and Springback Prediction

Deep drawing processes & product validation3D Shell

Stampack helps you to design formed parts so they can be done in the most cost-efficient way using the most economical

process and material. Stampack also can help you to develop a part shape that can be formed easily and that will fit and function properly. Major areas of concern can be identified easily with Stampack, such as excessive thinning, fractures, or wrinkling.

Stretch forming3D Shell

Stretch forming is a very attractive process since it is capable of accurately forming a wide variety of complex curved sheet metal

parts and profiles. This is an essential process for body panels in the automotive industry as well as aircraft skin and wing panels or leading edges in the aerospace industry. Stampack users can easily define the simple or tangential stretch-forming process and adjust the trajectories of the jaws and forming tools accordingly.

Deep drawing and stamping of thick sheets2D · 3D Solid

Stampack provides alternative element technology for very thick plates and bulky geometries where full 3D optimized

elements may be utilized. The 3D technology also provides an industrial and engineering criterion to predict failure of materials subjected to 3D state of stresses. The unique Triaxial Failure Diagram (TFD) criterion, allows the identification of material limits and valid safety zones.

Progressive die stamping validation2D · 3D Shell & Solid

Stampack for progressive die stamping validation lets users check and generate feasible stations in the complete tool.

Stampack optimizes the complex die validation process before tool construction. The complete simulation of the process combined with the results evaluation will help tool designers to take the right decisions, dramatically reducing the potential for error and greatly improve manufacturing productivity.

Formability Analysis and Springback Prediction Trim Optimizer

Optimum trimming lines3D Shell

Stampack trim optimizer (TROP) is an automatic trimming line optimization module. Is an essential tool for the

determination of optimum blank shapes and trimming lines.

The trim line is rapidly determined to ensure that the desired shape and dimensions of the part boundary are obtained at the end of those operations which follow the trimming operation. TROP automatically adjusts the trim line to remove or add sheet metal until the desired part boundary is achieved.

Optimum trim line blank shape is necessary for the sheet metal forming process. The trim optimization not only prevents the wastage of material or reduces product development period but also improves product quality and reduces occurrence of defects like wrinkling and tearing.

Ironing process simulation2D · 3D Solid

Stampack provides appropriate element technology for an accurate ironing process definition where full 3D elements should be

used. Ironing is a very useful metal forming process when employed in combination with deep drawing to produce a uniform wall thickness part with greater height-to-diameter ratio. For axis-symmetric or plain strain components, the most effective solution is obtained using 2D elements.

Springback and springback compensation2D · 3D Shell & Solid

Stampack allows the accurate prediction of the f inal par t geometry via the fast springback computation.

A spring forward algorithm has been developed to systematically generate a complete geometry description of the tooling sur face with springback compensation. The algorithm has been proven successfully with complicated 3d real metal forming par ts.
