Video Overview: Body and Chassis Manufacturing Simulation
This video showcases the transformative power of ESI's virtual prototyping solutions in revolutionizing car body and chassis manufacturing. You will see solutions that pave the way for transition from physical to virtual testing, significantly reducing development time and costs, while enhancing vehicle safety and performance.
Watch Mark Vrolijk as he introduces:
- PAM-Stamp: to simulate sheet metal forming and predict issues like cracks in lightweight designs.
- ProCAST: and how to analyze casting processes for quality control.
- PAM-Composites: to model composite materials for strength and lightness.
- SYSWeld: to simulate welding processes to predict quality and distortions.
Mark also addresses the challenges of handling high-strength steel, aluminum components, and complex castings before discussing the merits of 'virtual value chains' that connect manufacturing, assembly, and performance for optimal final assembly quality, improved safety, and accelerated time to market.
