Material Data Sets
• A number of material characterization data sets
are available in .udb, moldex 3D, and SIMPOE
format
Mold Filling Simulation (see examples below)
• Serves to validate part design (e.g., gate location,
fill/pack/warp/cool) & material solution
• Evaluates component design viability with
preferred Avient material solution
• Fiber analysis determines fiber orientation
and length
• Predicts part quality and manufacturability
(shrink, warp, weld line location)
FILLING PART QUALITYFIBER ORIENTATION
Finite Element Analysis (FEA)
• Virtually simulates how an application will perform in real-world conditions with a high
level of precision
• Able to represent a variety of problems, test methods, models and outputs to evaluate the design,
process and material combination for validation or optimization
FEA Simulation Capabilities
• Static
- Displacement/rotations
- Stress and strains
- Contact pressure
- Reaction forces/moments
- Factors of safety
• Vibration
- Eigen frequencies
- Harmonic response
○ Harmonic displacement,
acceleration and stress
Software Used
• Autodesk Moldflow
• Simulia/Abaqus
• MSC Cradle
• CAD/CAE
- MSC Apex
- SolidWorks
• Failure mode effect analysis (FMEA) support
By leveraging mold filling simulation, data software,
and physical simulation capabilities, we can help
inform your decision-making process.

Because the trays were regularly handled by consumers
and filled with food, it was very important that any
changes made to the material would not jeopardize the
packaging’s FDA compliance.
It can also be an ideal choice to help
reduce picking errors with auto and manual fill
machines, decreasing waste and limiting production
downtime.
