Polymer.

Some of you might be scratching your head asking yourself, what exactly is extrusion simulation software? Well, trust me, you've seen the product of its handiwork and it's likely you’ve even interacted with it today. You see, extrusion simulation software like Click2Extrude 2017 is used to help metal and polymer extrusion companies simulate the interaction of their materials with the dies that shape a substance into a final form.

In the past, when designs were more rigid and lacked the subtle curves that are now demanded in the automotive and aerospace industries, the process of metal and polymer extrusion didn’t require advanced simulation. Today, that's hardly the case.

Fortunately, the

Click2Extrude suite

is steadily making the process of ensuring that dies and materials work together seamlessly much more easily and scientifically.

In the 2017 release, both Click2Extrude Metal and Click2Extrude Polymer are packed with new features. For its part, Click2Extrude Metal includes the ability to predict where internal defects may occur in weldments, skin tracking to identify scrap and back-end defects, a die failure prediction algorithm and quite a lot more.

When it comes to Click2Extrude Polymer, the 2017 update includes die swell prediction and profile shape defects, co-extrusion analysis and the opportunity to predict clamshelling and mandrel shifts. Again, Click2Extrude Polymer features a litany of other powerful enhancements that make extrusion simulation much more thorough and easy to use.

As the demand for lightweighting and aerodynamics continues to drive the extrusion markets, you can be certain that extrusion simulation software will become even more vital for manufacturers looking to capture the business of aerospace and for automotive giants looking for the cheapest and fastest solutions to their design and manufacturing challenges.
