SUMMARY:Moldex3D Webinar: Bridging the Gap Aligning Simulated and Real-World Pressure Data
DESCRIPTION:Date：Aug 20\, 2025\nTime： 2:00 PM EDT\n\nIn high-pressure applications like injection molding\, accurately predicting pressure loss across the entire system is critical for diagnosing and preventing molding issues. While many focus solely on maximum pressure values\, it’s the pressure trends and contours that offer the most insight into flow behavior\, imbalance\, and potential defects. \nThis webinar will explore how to interpret pressure distribution more effectively using Moldex3D\, helping you uncover root causes of issues such as short shots\, warpage\, or excessive clamp force requirements. Learn how to go beyond surface-level metrics and leverage full pressure analysis to make smarter design and process decisions—before you mold.\nWhat will attendees learn? \n\nHow to identify and eliminate common LSR/ silicone molding issues—such as air traps\, flashing\, short shots\, and uneven curing—through simulation.\nGain practical strategies to improve simulation accuracy through better material data\, boundary condition settings\, and interpretation of pressure contours and trends.

SUMMARY:Beaumont Moldflow Webinar Series: STAMP
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, April 10th – Dave Corsi\nSTAMP – Shrinkage Test Adjusted Mechanical Properties \nBeaumont is holding this FREE webinar series showcasing tips\, tricks\, and some of the latest features Moldflow has to offer. Come listen in\, ask questions and share with your co-workers!  There are three remaining webinars each covering different Moldflow topics all starting at noon EST. \nSTAMP – Shrinkage Test Adjusted Mechanical Properties\nAn accurate simulation is only as accurate as the information provided. One of the most important inputs in plastic flow simulation is the material file itself. If a material file is missing critical tested data\, then the simulated results could be compromised. Simulation software generally uses a simplified thermo-viscous-elastic residual stress model due to the lack of good material data in anisotropic thermo-viscoelastic residual stress calculations and crystallization. This model has a constant solidification temperature with available material data obtained under laboratory conditions. It can generally provide acceptable results helping users optimize the processing conditions for mold and part design. However\, model calibration and correction can further improve the predicted accuracy. Moldflow uses measured shrinkage data to improve the shrinkage and warpage prediction for Midplane and Dual Domain models known as CRIMS “Corrected Residual In-Mold Stress”. STAMP or “Shrinkage Test Adjusted Mechanical Properties” is a shrinkage correction model that will use the measured shrinkage data\, obtained from rectangular plaque moldings\, to calibrate modulus\, Poisson’s Ratio\, and Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE). This new model gives additional accuracy for 3D simulations and is only available for Autodesk Moldflow.

SUMMARY:Beaumont Moldflow Webinar Series: Hot Gate Insulation
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, March 20th – Jerry Rooney\nHot Gate Insulation – Is the Default Assumption Safe? \nBeaumont is holding this FREE webinar series showcasing tips\, tricks\, and some of the latest features Moldflow has to offer. Come listen in\, ask questions and share with your co-workers!  There are three remaining webinars each covering different Moldflow topics all starting at noon EST. \nHot Gate Insulation – Is the Default Assumption Safe?\nBy default\, Moldflow assumes good insulation between Hot Gate elements and Part elements. Consequently\, the mold temperature near the gate is quite uniform\, and shows little evidence of the heat load from the nearby hot gate. The goal was to determine if manipulating the insulation properties of the hot gate produces notably different results in terms of packing and warpage. The results show increases in local shrinkage near the gates and slight changes to warpage magnitudes. Warpage trends remained the same in all scenarios. Additional simulations should be performed to determine the trends on a variety of materials and part designs. Lastly\, future work should involve taking actual temperature measurements from a production tool and comparing to simulation outputs.

SUMMARY:Beaumont Moldflow Webinar Series: Thermal Pins
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, February 27th\, Noon (EST) – Mike Hall\nThermal Pins – How to Model and Why it Matters \nBeaumont is holding this FREE webinar series showcasing tips\, tricks\, and some of the latest features Moldflow has to offer. Come listen in\, ask questions and share with your co-workers!  There are three remaining webinars each covering different Moldflow topics all starting at noon EST. \nThermal Pins – How to Model and Why it Matters\nThermal Pins are used in place of or in addition to baffles and bubblers to improve heat extraction from hot spot regions in injection molded parts. The evolution of injection molding flow simulation allows us to evaluate cooling lines within a mold before cutting steel\, but can thermal pins be accurately modeled within the simulation? Proper modeling techniques are essential to differentiate between using a bubbler\, baffle\, or thermal pin in Moldflow to minimize hot spots across the cavity and avoid costly tool revisions.

SUMMARY:DELMIAWorks Webinar: Mastering Manufacturing Process Development
DESCRIPTION:From Concept to Production: Mastering Manufacturing Process Development\n\n\n\n\n\nAug 28\, 2024 11:00 AM (ET)\n\n\n\nIn the competitive world of manufacturing\, the design and layout of your processes are as critical as the equipment you use. Whether integrating a new production line or transitioning to a new facility\, optimizing material flow from raw materials to finished products is key to a successful investment. Historically\, large multinational firms have relied on meticulous planning and advanced 3D renders to refine their processes. In contrast\, midmarket manufacturers lacking these resources often rely on informal knowledge and estimates\, leading to suboptimal outcomes. However\, with the constant evolution of process simulation tools and user friendly process monitoring systems\, midmarket manufacturers now have the capability to develop and evaluate production processes in a virtual environment.\n\nJoin DELMIAWorks Industry Process Consultants Johann Ortiz-Franco and Josh Covault on August 28th at 11:00 am EST as they review tools and techniques for creating digital process replicas and simulating the impact of changes before they are made in the real world.\n\nIn this webinar\, we will delve into:\n• Utilizing Digital Twin Technology: Transform plant layouts with optimized space and resource utilization.\n• Optimizing Process Flows: Enhance production efficiency through testing and refining.\n• Real-Time Data Acquisition: Validate assumptions and decisions made during the design process.\n\nDon’t miss this opportunity to learn more about the technology that can help you expand your production facility safely and efficiently -without the guesswork and anxiety.
