19 Aug 2020
From Weld Quality to Body Manufacturing & Distortion Engineering, ESI SYSWELD offers a unique computer-aided assessment of material characteristics, residual stresses and distortions by taking into account all the multi-physics that is involved in Welding, Assembly and Heat Treatment manufacturing processes:
- for process feasibility and material characteristic control
- for process security and product performance improvement
- for car body manufacturing and distortion control
ESI SYSWELD 2020.5 includes:
- Welding Simulation: Visual-Weld 16.0.1 and SYSWELD Solver 2020.0
- Heat Treatment Simulation: Visual-HT 16.0.1 and SYSWELD Solver 2020.0
- Assembly Simulation: Visual-Assembly 16.0.1 and Virtual Assembly Solver (CSM) 2020:
- Body manufacturing for auto industry
- Distortion engineering on large welded assembly
Highlights of ESI SYSWELD:
Visual Weld and HT:
Fast, intuitive and easy-to-use welding and heat treatment simulation tool which covers all activities of the welding & heat treatment engineer. Some key new functionalities of version 2020.5 are:
- Chaining Simulation Solution using CATGEN Import/Export Generic ESI Format
- SYSWELD to Abaqus Easy Chaining
- Nitsche Sticking Contact New Optimized Parameters
- Weld speed and power ramp control
Visual Assembly:
New generation, easy-to-use assembly simulation to ensure dimension accuracy “distortion control” of assemblies which:
- Covers complete car body manufacturing chain starting from the stamped part to pre-positioning to holding/clamping and finally welding/joining. Inheriting details of the “as manufactured” components from the press shop, visual assembly simulates step by step the entire assembly and welding process chain in the body shop.
- Covers large welded assemblies with thick plates and multi-pass welds, which are common in the shipbuilding industry. Aimed at shop floor production, the software can deliver the optimization of a weld sequence plan thanks to a streamlined and intuitive interface, offering dedicated automatic meshing functionalities and easy model set-up.
