New flow simulalion for microcellular foams. (Injection Molding).


Ability to simulate simulate - simulation  flow and predict cell size in the MuCell micro-cellular foam molding process from Trexel Inc. is one of the new features of Moldflow Plastics Insight (MPI MPI - Message Passing Interface ) 4.1 simulation software Simulation software is based on the process of imitating a real phenomenon with a set of mathematical formulas. It is, essentially, a program that allows the user to observe an operation through simulation without actually running the program.  from Moldflow Corp., Wayland, Mass. To be released this month, MPI 4.1 also features the ability to simulate the Dynamic Feed System of Synventive Molding Solutions. MPI 4.1 can simulate up to 32 independent pressure profiles in a Dynamic Feed System.

Other enhancements include significantly faster cooling analysis and new ability to predict fiber orientation in MPI/Flow3D, a module designed for simulating thick parts that are not well represented by a midplane model. The 3D fiber-orientation analysis also predicts its contribution to warpage Warp´age
