ExtrusionFlow

ExtrusionFlow

ExtrusionFlow is an advanced simulation software developed by aluminium extrusion experts for die-makers and extruders. ExtrusionFlow enables the user to perform fast 3D simulations of the extrusion process to compute stress and deformation, temperature and fluid flow.

Strengths and Advantages

  • Simulation with bearings defined by the designer
  • Simulation with constant bearings
  • Bearing length calculation(with the module 'Automatic Bearing Calculator' )
  • Die stress and deformation analysis (thermal, mechanical, thermal & mechanical)  to understand the different effects on profile shape and tool deflections
  • Profile shape reduction with the help of thermal and mechanical simulation
  • Surface defects with the help of thermal simulation
  • Quality of welding seems in welding chamber with the help of pressure analysis
  • Deformation and failure analysis with the help of thermal and mechanical die simulation
  • Selection of the optimum bolster and sub-bolster
  • Database of commonly used alloys for tools and materials
