Build in manufacturability from day one.
Mold simulation gives part designers the ability to explore more design options more rapidly and identify manufacturing issues before final part geometry is locked in.
Lower Part Cost
Ongoing Optimize cycle time, gate location, wall thickness, and
other variables.Faster Time to Market
Minimize iterations caused by warpage and shrinkage, and reduce
tooling time.Higher Product Quality
Address weld lines, air traps, and other issues when it is less
expensive to make changes.
Autodesk Moldflow is an industry-leading solution for optimizing plastic part designs before manufacturing. Use it to find the ideal balance of cycle time, cost, and part quality for your products.
Achieve success with
Plastic flow
Simulate the flow of thermosets and thermoplastics to help optimize plastic part and injection mold designs, reduce potential part defects, and improve the molding process.
Tooling layout
Evaluate and optimize cavity location, hot and cold runner systems, and gating configurations.
Mold cooling configuration
Improve cooling system efficiency, minimize part warpage, achieve smooth surfaces, and reduce cycle times.
Shrinkage and warpage
Evaluate plastic parts and injection mold designs to help control shrinkage and warpage.
Material library
Robust library with over 11,500 grades of material from a variety of suppliers to effectively evaluate various material options for your part design.
