AutoForm TubeXpert R11 (x64)

Description
AutoForm TubeXpert is an easy-to-use and highly intuitive software solution for rapid tool design and simulation of tube bending, forming, and hydroforming processes. The software enables you to meet the increasing demands regarding part complexity, part quality and advanced materials, such as advanced high-strength steels and aluminum, as well as the increasing complexity and variety of forming processes.

With AutoForm TubeXpert, you can carry out comprehensive virtual tryout analyses of the forming process of tubular parts including all process steps from bending and preforming to hydroforming, annealing and calibration, cutting and tube end forming. Both cold and hot tube forming can be addressed. In addition, the software enables you to perform accurate springback simulation after any of the forming process steps and automatically make the necessary adjustments to the tool geometry and process parameters in order to compensate the effects of springback. The full integration of AutoForm-Sigma technology in AutoForm TubeXpert enables you as a part designer, process engineer, or tool and die maker to systematically improve tool designs and process layouts as well as evaluate the robustness of the manufacturing process.
