Case Study
Avient Design
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2025-02/Hexagon and digimat case study.pdf
By using mold filling simulation and Digimat to evaluate
several options, we can account for manufacturing
variation when performing long fibre structural analysis.
This greatly improves solution resolution and provides
a guide for optimising the plastic component and mold
tooling design,” said Brad Davison, the North America
Director of Technology for Specialty Engineered Materials
at Avient.
The case study shows that by utilising
the 3D suite simulation and comparing to real-world
testing, Avient is equipped to more accurately interpret
the data to help solve its customers’ toughest application
challenges

Avient Reaffirms Commitment to U.N.
From labware for diagnostic testing to protective equipment and sterile packaging to ventilators and medical devices, plastics are a crucial tool in saving lives and improving health and safety in our communities.
These solutions help enable customers to achieve their sustainability goals by increasing the use of post customer recycled (PCR) and post industrial recycled (PIR) content, enabling recyclability, increasing adoption of biopolymers and minimizing plastic waste.

In the consumer applications, the elastomer performance needed is processability, colorability and softness.
An inch wide strip of TPE is cut and pulled at 90o to the substrate using an Instron tensile tester.
With an increasing awareness of ergonomics and the rise in joint overuse injuries, consumers are savvy to products that will fit their bodies better and provide vibration cushioning.
