Software Description:
AdvantEdge is a validated finite elementanalysis solution for the optimization of metal cutting. AdvantEdgewas specifically developed to improve tool design, increasematerial removal rates, extend tool life, improve part quality andmore. AdvantEdge analyzes the machining process by modeling at thetool-workpiece level. Then, based on the physics of machining, theproduct embodies state-of-the-art finite element technology andmaterial modeling for an accurate representation of cuttingmechanics.
The user-friendly modeling products are used by engineers lookingto improve tool design, increase material removal rates, extendtool life, improve part quality and more. Utilizing AdvantEdgedecreases the need for trial and error testing, ultimately gettingproducts to market faster.
AdvantEdge enables engineers to analyze machining processes in2D and 3D environments. Manufacturers across the globe findAdvantEdge to be a valuable step in the design of milling,grooving, boring, sawing, broaching, drilling and turningprocesses. Engineers who use AdvantEdge are also given the power toanalyze temperature and stress in order to predict tool wearbehavior and performance. By comparing case-by-base scenarios,engineers can easily identify and implement optimumparameters.AdvantEdge users start simulating their processes bydefining tool geometry or import from a CAD program. Then, selecttool and workpeice materials, input cutting conditions and run thesimulation(s). Engineers can compare simulation results fordifferent cutting conditions or tool geometries to find optimalresults, such as: temperature and stress analysis, chip formationto predict improved chip evacuation and evaluate force plots tolower cutting forces and power consumption.
Here are some key features of “AdvantEdge”:
– STEP/STL/VRML tool import capbaility
– Standard and custom tool creation
– Library of 130+ workpiece materials
– User-defined material and constitutive models
– Residual stress modeling
