3D Shapes for Moldflow Simulation and CAD Services

Imagine being able to accurately predict the future. Imagine the time and money saved as manufacturing problems are resolved during product development. With advanced simulation from 3D Shapes, predicting the future isn't left to your imagination, it is reality.

Using best-in-class solutions from Autodesk, 3D Shapes provides simulation for straight injection molding and related alternative processes. Combining years of experience with superior tools, our analyses assure the success of your project.

From your earliest product concepts through final production tooling, 3D Shapes' simulation services keep your projects on track.

Moldflow Analysis Services

Gas-assist part

Filling of Gas-Assist Part

With Moldflow analysis, you will gain valuable insights into the dynamics of filling, cooling, packing and warpage. You will actually look inside your part and mold evaluating vital parameters before investing time and money in tooling. Understanding what happens during the entire cycle as the mold fills, packs and cools provides an opportunity to modify both the part and tool design. You will not simply be seeing symptoms of problems, you will actually be able to diagnose the causes.

Rework, repair and scrap can be a thing of the past. Imagine sampling your first part and having confidence that it will be right the first time. Imagine a competitive advantage to combat outsourcing.

For conventional injection molding or alternative processes such as gas-assist, co-injection, MuCell®, overmolding and insert molding, 3D Shapes has the experience and skills to accurately predict the future and increase your profits.

We can also analyze thermosets and reactive processes such as RIM, RTM and microchip encapsulation.

Before your first prototype or prototype tool you will understand whether your design will work.  For more details contact 3D Shapes.

Solutions for Design and Manufacturing

Don't wait until you have a problem with a part or mold. Analyze and simulate your parts while they are still in the development process. Confirm that they will perform before investing another dollar or another hour.

If you didn't take advantage of these tools in the design process and problems occur 3D Shapes can diagnose the causes and find the solutions.

Predicting the future can start simply by sending us your CAD data or giving us a call.
