Update-Trainings

Is it enough to calculate the part? What do I need to know about the process? Should I calculate the tool? These and similar questions arise in everyday use of SIGMASOFT® and will be answered during the training.

Starting with the initial idea of the part through to ongoing production, simulation strategies are discussed that accelerate decision-making processes. Through the efficient use of these strategies, SIGMASOFT® noticeably expands the scope of action.

During the training, the necessary actions in the areas of design, toolmaking and process technology will be discussed.

With clear workflows and examples, a systematic approach is developed to support everyday work. A specific practical example will be used and the route from article simulation to virtual molding using SIGMASOFT® will be followed.

After the training, the participants will be equipped with the appropriate simulation strategies specifically for each project status.

The aim of this training is learning the basics of preparing and evaluating a DoE using SIGMASOFT®. Virtual DoE is not only a consistent continuation of our virtual molding technology, but also a revolutionary step that sets our software apart from the usual simulation approaches.

You will be able to find the optimal configuration for your simulation just by defining degrees of freedom and your general goals. This makes it very easy to find the perfect process parameters even before setting up the mold, which saves time as well as money.

The implementation of the SIGMASOFT® concept will be discussed with the help of illustrative examples. In addition, further innovations of the current SIGMASOFT® version will be introduced during the training.

How does the injection molding process influence the shrinkage and warpage of the part? Is it reasonable to adopt the cavity geometry to compensate for the warpage?

If yes, to what extent? As a design/production engineer or manufacturer of injection molds you deal with questions of that kind every day.

The Stress I Basic training is a chance to refresh your basics and deepen your knowledge on how to predict warpage with SIGMASOFT®. We present our guidelines that help you evaluate various scenarios you may face on the way from designing the plastic part up to the production phase – and successfully manage this to make the right decisions with the help of SIGMASOFT®.

The Stress II Advanced training is the continuation of our one-day basic course and is construed for experienced SIGMASOFT® users involved in the planning, design and implementation of plastic parts and the associated molds.

During the training, the development process from the quoting phase to the validation of the mold will be discussed with an example from the industry. The training focuses on a methodical procedure in the evaluation of shrinkage and warpage with SIGMASOFT® and how to act on the findings. During the course, a guideline, which will help to coordinate the resources available in SIGMASOFT® with the questions and requirements for the finished component, will be developed.
