Digital simulation software supplier ESI Group has unveiled its new Pam-Diemaker for CATIA V5, an integrated workbench to provide solution for stamping tool design.
Pam-Diemaker for CATIA V5 version 2009 reportedly generates a simulation model and a surface model, thus supporting the die design process from early feasibility to machining.
According to the company, the application integrates simulation algorithms within CATIA V5, allowing a surface design, in particular the binder surface and the die addendum starting from the part, based on parametric generative modelling.
Mark Vrolijk, diemaker product manager at ESI Group, said: “The solution combines the benefits from rapid surfacing techniques with the accuracy, precision of surface quality and efficiency of CATIA‘s data management.
“As a consequence, version 2009 ensures a consistent, safe and traceable geometric dataflow from the part’s CAD model to the Pam-Stamp 2G physics-based simulation environment. This software is distributed and supported by ESI and Dassault Systèmes PLM Market Place network.
