FTI Forming Suite 2018.0.0.17481 FTI FormingSuite Professional The most powerful stamping analysis tool for blank development, process design, and incremental simulation. Combines: FASTIncremental, FASTFORM Advanced, and FASTFORM MultiStage into one powerful package This seamless scenario covers the entire process from quoting to process design to virtual prove-out with speed and efficiency not seen before. Eliminates duplication of data entry Creates the complete tooling process Accurately determines material thinning and wrinkling Automatic extraction of tooling geometry FormingSuite Professional is a user-friendly combination one-step, implicit and explicit incremental analysis solution that provides a complete virtual die development and tryout for tool and die makers. It requires no FEA background. It offers many new advanced features such as automatic blank size, shape and location, automatic process setup, and automatic binder closing and wrap. Multistage2-min.png FASTIncremental FASTIncremental is a user-friendly incremental analysis solution that provides a detailed virtual die tryout for users with limited FEM background. It offers many new advanced features such as automatic blank size, shape and location, automatic process setup, and automatic binder closing and wrap. FEATURES: Binder wrap calculation based on inverse technology Automated tool extraction from provided first form geometry Analysis controlled through FormingSuite graphical user environment Pre- and Post-Processing is done in a single, intuitive to use environment Fully associative and regenerative to drastically reduce downstream design changes Based on LSTC's proven LS-Dyna® solver FastForm Advanced The Most Accurate and ONLY Regenerative and Associative Formability Tool to Increase Productivity of Engineers by 70% Identifies 90% of forming feasibility issues within minutes, to substantially reduce financial risks during product development The most accurate and speedy formability tool from product concept to die design; pinpoint problem root causes, product versus process issues When used as a front end to an incremental, will reduce number of incremental runs from 25 to 3 70% productivity improvement in evaluating multiple processing scenarios FFADfront-min.png FEATURES: The ONLY Regenerative and Associative environment for formability evaluation; simulates multiple processing scenarios in minutes with a regenerative tree Uses the most accurate forming analysis engine and only one for tight radii Materials database – populated by common materials; can add your own materials Automatic Meshing - Powerful mesh generator to hide FEA complexity. Capable of filling holes, offsetting to mid-plane, and displaying undercut elements Best in Class Skinning tool to convert from Solid into Skin, based on unique topology tool Forming Conditions – Best in Class tools to simulate blankholder forces, drawbeads, pressure pads, pilot holes, and constraints Curved Binder - Create or load a binder surface to create a more uniform draw depth Springback - Determine the final part shape resulting from springback, with or without trimming Tailor Welded Parts - Define additional materials for different areas of the part Cut Off Dies - 7 standard blank outlines are available
