BlankWorks
Complex Sheet Metal Designs
BlankWorks provides SolidWorks users with a fully integrated tool for developing optimal blank shapes for complex formed sheet metal designs. It accounts for material stretch and deformation as well as bending and can flatten any SolidWorks geometry
It is specifically designed for estimators, engineers, account managers and tool and die designers.
The Most Accurate Blank Development Tool
- 50x faster and more accurate (1.4% vs. 10% inaccuracy) than manual calculations with full associativity to native geometry
- Accurate material costs in minutes for budget integrity
- Reduce material costs and number of prove-out trials
- Reduces collaboration lag (time to communicate a change and obtain feedback), and hence results in 50% less engineering changes, since the analysis is current with the geometry.
FEATURES:
- Fast and accurate blank shape generation
- Graphical display of material thinning and gathering, addresses initial product and process feasibility.
- Customizable materials database provides flexibility required to analyze virtually any component.
- HTML-based report generation summarizes the process and provides valuable engineering data for estimating.
- Extremely simple user interface capitalizes on the seamless integration with native geometry in SolidWorks
