The Digimat material cards accurately capture all three of the above phenomena. In addition to providing a robust way to account for differing gate locations from the manufacturing process, Hexagon’s Digimat multiscale modelling approach provides significant improvements in the accuracy of the stiffness and failure. Hexagon’s Manufacturing Intelligence division provides solutions that use data from design and engineering, production and metrology to make manufacturing smarter.
