FASTFORM Advanced

Product catalog summary
Overview: FASTFORM Advanced is a comprehensive software solution developed by Forming Technologies Incorporated (FTI) for analyzing product formability and die design. It aims to reduce financial risks and development time by identifying potential issues early in the product lifecycle.
Key Features:
  • Materials Database: A customizable database for material properties.
  • Automatic Meshing: Simplifies the finite element analysis (FEA) process with a powerful mesh generator.
  • Tipping: Allows automatic and manual orientation of parts for press direction.
  • Forming Conditions: Simulates effects of blankholder force, drawbeads, pressure pads, and constraints.
  • Curved Binder: Facilitates the creation of uniform draw depths.
  • Springback Analysis: Determines final part shape post-springback.
  • Tailor Welded Parts: Supports defining different materials for various part areas.
  • Cut Off Dies: Offers five standard blank outlines.
  • Exporting: Allows export in IGES, DXF, Nastran, or LS-DYNA formats.
  • Reports: Generates HTML reports summarizing results.
Benefits: The software provides fast and accurate formability analysis, helping users implement changes early, saving corporations significant costs annually. It considers various factors such as component geometry, material properties, and forming conditions.
About FTI: Forming Technologies Incorporated is a leader in computer-aided engineering software for sheet metal forming design and simulation. With over 19 years of experience, FTI serves industries like automotive, aerospace, and appliances, offering solutions that reduce development time and material costs.
