Overview
Moldflow Mold Adviser is a midrange plastics flow simulation tool that allows mold designers to optimize single cavity, multicavity and family mold layouts, eliminate potential downstream problems and avoid costly rework and manufacturing delays. Optional add-on modules allow users to simulate more phases of the injection molding process and evaluate molded part performance and cooling circuit design.

Benefits

• Design and analyze virtually all types of hot and cold sprues and runner systems
• Obtain automatically sized runners to balance flow in multi-cavity and family molds
• Identify the best gate locations and determine the optimum number of gates
• Predict estimated cycle time, clamp tonnage and shot volume
• Simulate plastics flow through mold feed systems (sprues, runners and gates)
• Evaluate mold cooling circuits to achieve uniform cooling and minimum cycle times (optional add-on module)
• Determine if a part is likely to warp or deform beyond acceptable levels (optional add-on module)
