Autoform R11 [SAFE]

: Metal "springs back" after it is bent. R11 allows users to measure this exactly as it happens in the real manufacturing process, enabling more accurate compensation (over-crowning) before the first tool is ever milled.

: Researching how to reduce material waste (up to 45%) by using pure shear deformation to form parts with minimal thickness variation. autoform r11

R11 includes a parametric library of standard die components (cushion pins, nitrogen springs, draw beads). Instead of modeling a pin from scratch, users drag a "Cushion Pin" object onto the press table. The system automatically adjusts force distribution based on the pad contact. : Metal "springs back" after it is bent

A new thermal model for line joining allows users to specify welding speed and power input. The software then calculates the thermal loading of the heat-affected zone (HAZ) to determine how welding heat impacts the final dimensional accuracy of the assembly.
