FORM solidThinking' Sheet Metal Forming Simulation Software File Edit View Geometry Feasibility Measure Home Thinning Major Strain Minor Strain Effective Strain Formability Thickness Click2Form is a sheet metal forming simulation software which allows users to enhance and optimize the forming process for massively improving productivity and quality. Product Highlights • Stamping simulation software with the ability to do product design, feasibility analysis and cost estimation. • User-friendly interface facilitating natural workflow for innovative user experience. • Identify potential stamping defects such as splits and wrinkles and modify product design early in the design cycle. • Quick and optimal nesting of blank in the sheet metal coil to maximize material utilization for progressive and transfer die forming. Benefits Click2Form is a unique software that enables users to optimally design sheet metal components considering manufacturing feasibility and material cost. Thanks to the fast and accurate inverse/one-step simulation technology, users can analyze the design quickly for forming feasibility. The nesting functionality rapidly proposes efficient layout of flattened blank on the sheet metal coil for maximum material utilization and minimum material cost. Click2Form offers an innovative user experience allowing natural transition between analysis, design modifications and costing through a simplified user-friendly interface designed for beginners and experts alike. Design Better Products • Quick and reliable check on stamping feasibility of design. • Visualize potential defect areas (splits, wrinkles, loose metal). • Modify design and gauge materials quickly to eliminate defects to finalize the design. • Optimal blank nesting in transfer die or progressive die layout within manufacturing constraints for maximum material utilization and reduction of material cost. • Guide the user with the design and reduce trial and error. Accelerate die face design and process planning • Evaluate product designs for feasibility and quoting. • Quickly check die face designs for stamping feasibility. • Predict common stamping defects in die face design upfront and correct them before detailed incremental analysis. • Assist die face designers to identify process conditions like blank holder force
