Use Design-Integrated Analysis to make critical performance-based decisions…faster!

From Dassault Systemes of America Corp.

Under today’s increasing pressure to deliver better products faster, there is a growing need to perform simulation as early as possible in the design process. With CATIA integrated Analysis products, finite element technology is made available within the CATIA environment, allowing designers and engineers to efficiently incorporate accurate stress and thermal analysis into the design process. In this webinar, we will show how standard Automotive simulations can be easily performed by designers and thereby reduce the number of iterations with CAE experts.

Metal Injection Molding: Catamold® A Proven Technology for Complex Steel Automotive Components

From BASF Corporation

Catamold® is the leading ready-to-mold, high quality feedstock for Metal Injection Molding (MIM). MIM enables the economic production of complex, net-shape steel components in high volumes allowing engineers to think outside the box and imagine new innovative designs for automotive components. Available in a wide range of alloys, MIM’s high final density and homogeneous microstructure yields mechanical properties exceeding investment casting. The design freedom and cost effectiveness coupled with current engine down sizing and boosting trends are expanding applications for MIM. Embraced by automotive designers in Europe, Catamold® is a proven technology which is gaining wider acceptance in North America.

Best Kept Secrets on a Practical Approach to Optimize Your Machine

From FANUC FA America

A high level, practical approach to accurate parameterization, error compensation, servo tuning, and process tuning are all necessary to optimize a machine tool. The needs and performance requirements of a machine tool varies with the market they serve. Optimizing machine performance by tailoring it to the individual needs of a particular user provides the most productive platform for that industry. While no CNC feature can make a poor machine into a good machine, applying and optimizing powerful CNC features can make a good machine much better.

Flying Off The line: How Aerospace Knowledge Can Accelerate the Use of Composites in Mass Produced Auto

From Dassault Systèmes

Having been introduced to the industry in the 1950s, the use of composites by automotive manufacturers is nothing new. However, composites have not yet been adopted on a large scale because of technical issues like material characterization, manufacturing and joining that needed to be solved. Composites have been slowly introduced where it made sense and now, performance, safety and fuel economy standards are beginning to dictate the need for composites in mass production. This session will leverage technology and knowledge from the aerospace industry and apply ‘lessons learned’ to the automotive industry. The benefits of using composites in mass production will be discussed, along with the important factors needed for composites to succeed in the automotive industry.

Radio Flyer - Bringing Joy to Every Boy and Girl with the Help of 3D Printing

From Objet Geometries, Inc.

Almost everyone owned a bright red Radio Flyer wagon as a kid and we can all remember the playful times made possible by Radio Flyer’s mission of “bring joy to every boy and every girl.” Today Radio Flyer touches the hearts of children worldwide with even greater choices of wagon, scooters. Trikes and Ride-ons designed with new technologies like 3D Printing. Tom Schlegel Vice President of Product Development for Radio Flyer will discuss how his team leverages rapid prototyping to bring better products to market faster. Tom will also discuss the benefits Radio Flyer experienced by bringing the technology in house versus outsourcing for 3D models. Tom will be joined by Neil Ranney, Manager of Products and Applications from Objet who will detail some of the application uses and techniques commonly used by product development teams utilizing 3D printer technology.
