PAM-STAMP 2017.0 release enables the user to be far more efficient with the setup and analysis of complete line die simulations, whether investigating a quick feasibility variant or an in-depth validation of the entire sheet metal forming process.

Highlights of the release:

• Revised graphical interface for fast one-click access to most frequently used functionalities
• New flexible and intuitive set-up for cold-forming processes (Process Editor)
• Dedicated functionality for quick definition of all operations (Operations Manager)
• New macros with kinematics based on the actual tipping system
• One-click creation of closed or open physical beads
• Improved kinematic check without penetrations of tools
• Pre-defined solver selection depending on stage type
• Improved performance for advanced implicit solver (in DMP)
• Coupling between explicit and implicit solver for e.g. effective elastic tool simulations
