Ensuring your plant’s piping systems adhere to international codes and standards plays an integral role in keeping your plant operational. Intergraph CAESAR II 2013 software makes it easy to input and display all the data needed to accurately define a piping system analysis model. It evaluates the structural responses and stresses of your piping systems to international codes and standards, and enables you to access and modify, if necessary, input element by element or globally. As pipe flexibility and stress analysis software, CAESAR II makes quick work of developing analysis models while clearly indicating areas of concern via color-coded stress models and animated displacements for any stress load case. Included are tools and wizards to help you create expansion loops...

Delcam has launched the 2012 version of its PowerMILL CAM system for high-speed and five-axis machining. The new release includes a number of new strategies, together with more general enhancements to make programming faster and machining more efficient with the best-possible surface finish. Full details, including videos demonstrating the new functionality, can be seen on www.delcam.tv/pm2012/lz. The most important new option is flowline machining. With flowline machining, the toolpath is divided between a pair of drive curves in a constant number of passes, rather than having a varying number of passes with a constant stepover. The toolpath will have its start and end passes on the drive curves, with the intermediate passes blending between them. This approach gives smoother results...

MMSIM 12.1 contains many new features to aid RF designers. Many of these changes are described in my Part 1 blog post. I\’ve saved my favorite for last….here\’s a preview of the changes to the nport component in MMSIM12.1. 1. The Edit Object Properties/Add Instance form has been revised for better usability. 2. For most S-parameter files, only the S-Parameter file name and the number of ports need to be specified. (See the red boxes in the GUI below). The default settings for all of the other properties are suggested. nport1a gui 3. When you select the Browse and select s-data file button, the following GUI appears and allows you to browse and select the desired s-parameter data file. Once...

Sheet metal forming simulation has become a powerful tool for the industry as it helps prevent and solve problems occurring during production. The new trend is to integrate the design stage into PLM/CAD systems and link directly from there to the simulation. This is where ESI contributes by offering PAM-DIEMAKER for CATIA V5, a rapid die design software directly integrated within the CATIA V5 environment. ESI is launching its worldwide Rapid Die Face Design with PAM-DIEMAKER for CATIA V5 Roadshow on May 27, 2010 in Zamudio, Spain. This free roadshow is a series of CATIA V5 Embedded Die Design seminars designed for tool designers, manufacturing engineers, stamping simulation and CAE professionals, where participants will discover the benefits of the next...

SPI SheetMetalWorks Version 2013 again fulfills numerous customer‘s demands that have been transmitted to our developer‘s department. The most impressing enhancements certainly concern several possibilities of treating freeform surfaces and the new commands in connection with the design of ball corners. In the context of freeform surfaces SPI SheetMetalWorks enables you to design a slightly different \”alternative freeform model\”. Therefore the unfolding of freeform surfaces and the facet attributes have been basically reworked. SheetMetalWorks 2013 offers a wide range of controlling means to affect the unfold result. The manufacturing info attributes have been enhanced in the new version. You have the choice to opt for different representations, e. g. for subsequent NC programming it is possible to let interpret the...
