What is Altair Inspire Extrude Metal

Every extrusion company is looking to eliminate expensive prototypes and reduce redesign cycles. Advanced physics simulations are now accessible to organizations of all sizes. Altair Inspire Extrude Metal is an easy-to-learn tool that allows simulation to be used by any engineer or designer to increase their understanding of how profile features and process variables interact for any specific metal alloy. It will help your team achieve productivity gains by reducing product development costs and improving extrusion quality, increasing production throughput and customer satisfaction.

Make better design decisions by detecting possible defects before a data is built. Even the most complex profiles can be validated for production with Inspire Extrude Metal. Using geometry creation and simplification tools, CAD can be quickly characterized and modified within the tool, ensuring potential profile distortion, deflection damage, back-end contamination, load weld defects, weld weld defects, bad seam welding, bad grain size, overheating profile quality, and poor surface quality issues are fixed early development. You can achieve lower scrap rates by exploring process improvements on a virtual printer. Simulation allows you to see within your production line and adjust process variables to reduce visible and invisible defects. Inspire Extrude Metal provides quick studies on extrusion matrix performance, an understanding of profile deformation, part temperature visualization, tool assembly elastic and elasto-plastic properties modeling, correcting the matrix using automatic bearing optimization, predictions of repute rates.
