5
Strip design

• Calculation of cut blank
• Automatic feature recognition (Analyse of the
  part)
• Automatic creation of strip layout with stations
• Placement of stamping tools on the strip layout
• Modification and inserting of stations
• 3D Simulation of strip

6
Processes at the strip layout

• Bending
• Springback
• Punching
• Embossing
• Idle station

7
Easy creation of punches

• Easy creaton of bending- and cutting punches at
  the strip layout (piercing punches, other puches
  etc)
• It is even possible to define the complete
  punching assembly (punch, punch-holder, guide
  bushing and die bushing etc)

8
Die set design

• Automatic creation of die sets with the help of
  an-easy-to use ProgressivePower script language
• Application of knowledge-based design rules
• Fast creation of die set

9
Placement of standard parts

• The comfortable Library management system
  enables the integration of company specific
  standard parts
• Supports loading of 3D models from file system
  or from PDM Systems (like WM or MM)
• Direct positioning
• Automatic creation of machining features

Dieset specific Standard parts
11
Catalogs

• Catalogs and Standard parts of major producers
  are provided

12
Startholes

• Startholes for wireerosion processes can be
  easily created
• They also appear in holechart and in 2D Views

13
Holechart

• With the help of SolidGenius module, a holechart
  can be created for CNC manufacturing
• The format of holechart is customizeable
• Machining Features (even the most complex ones)
  are recognized automatically

14
Generation of drawings
Automatically generate component and assembly
drawings based on the die design
