Find out how the way you dye fibers can have an impact on the sustainability of your fibers. Discover how our fiber tracer technology can help confirm the origin of fibers in your textile products

While heavier weight can increase fatigue, if it is strategically and correctly placed, additional weight can improve dexterity. In overmolded applications, the thinner the layer of elastomer applied on the substrate, the harder it will feel. The image shows the result of a fill analysis that predicts the polymer flow in the mold.

HOW DO YOU OUTDOOR? We believe outdoor enthusiasts share an astonishing passion for nature, even when the path they take to immerse themselves in their surroundings varies a great deal. PLACES TO PLAY • Side-by-Sides & ATVs • Snowmobiles NEW FRONTIERS Standing Up to the Elements Off road vehicles should be made to take a beating.

The images below show just three in-house molding tools designed for demonstrating and testing materials for different shapes and application demands. This enables us to evaluate how different materials perform and to establish best practice processing parameters. Material Data Sets • A number of material characterization data sets are available in .udb, moldex 3D, xChange data cards, and SIPOE 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 • Dynamic - Acceleration - Impact - Break/no break - Transmitted force - Energy absorption • Thermal Mechanical - Temperature Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) - Heat path - Dominant heat transfer - Temperature mapping - Coupling with mechanical simulations 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 • Digimat • Simulia/Abaqus • MSC Cradle • CAD/CAE - MSC Apex - SolidWorks Failure Mode Effect Analysis (FMEA) Support By leveraging mold filling simulation, multiphysics simulation, and the understanding of the link between design, process and material, we can help inform your decision-making process for product development.
