BLANK PREDICTION SOFTWARE Quickly and accurately develops blank shapes for both simple and complex geometries Reduces material costs and number of trials during prove-out Accurately identifies material thinning and gathering conditions Automatically generates a report for accurate quoting and estimating Accurate blank shape development and mapping of hole locations from 3D part to 2D or 3D blank CATBLANK CALCULATES INITIAL BLANK SHAPES FOR DIE DESIGN AND COST ESTIMATING IN MINUTES FORMING TECHNOLOGIES INCORPORATED

CATBLANK CATBLANK provides CATIA users with a fast and accurate method for developing optimal blank shapes. CATBLANK accounts for material stretch and deformation. It is specifically designed for estimators, engineers, account managers, and tool and die designers. Features Fast and accurate blank shape generation Holes are precisely mapped from part to blank Thickness plot helps identify potential problem areas Graphical display of material thinning and gathering addresses initial product and process feasibility Customizable materials database HTML-based report generation summarizes the process...
