Dynaform is a complete die system, LS-DYNA based simulation solution for automotive, electrical, stamping, tool and die industries. It allows organizations to evaluate alternative and unconventional designs and materials, while reducing costs, eliminating prototype tooling, and improving product performance.
By simulating the die system, during the design stage, Dynaform ensures the highest quality formed part and most efficient manufacturing process possible.

The BSE module is used for unfolding 3-dimensional sheet metal parts and estimating blank size, along with blank nesting for maximum material usage, scrap & piece price. BSE can be used to predict thinning, thickening and also to generate a forming limit diagram (FLD).
The FS module facilitates the rapid development and validation of single-station, progressive and line die designs. It uncovers hidden problem areas and enables die designers to optimize designs based on accurate forming results.
Dynaform’s D-Eval module is tailored to analyze CAD based tooling designs during early stage product development cycle. It is equipped with the stamping purpose increment solver which generates reliable formability results in a reasonable response time.
The DSA module efficiently predicts most stamping concerns within the stamping production line. DSA consists of three unique capabilities: Die Structure Integrity (DSI), Scrap Shedding/Removal (SSR), and Sheet Metal Transferring/Handling (SMTH).
DSI simulates operational loads to analyze the design integrity of the die. DSI can generate FEA models of the die structure, define operational/stamping loads and evaluate the die structure strength and durability by using implicit and explicit solutions.
The number one cause of stamping line shutdown is the failure of scrap to exit the workstation. This problem can be predicted and corrected in the trim die design stage to avoid troubleshooting in the stamping plant. SHR streamlines model generation for scrap, trim dies, chutes and trim steel. Trimming operations and shedding simulations can be easily setup in the scrap shedding graphic interface.
SMTH simulates the transfer of metal as it progresses through the manufacturing process. It simulates the transfer of the work-piece to the initial die station, movement between stations, pick-up of the finished part and placement on the shipping rack. Part deformation generated in the simulation is used to predict interference between the work-piece and tools. The stress/strain results can be used to prevent damage during transportation, as well as loading and unloading operations.
The BSE-in-NX is a complete solution for accurately estimating blank size along with blank nesting for maximum material utilization, minimum scrap and piece costs—all within the familiar NX environment. The solution can quickly produce a blank outline for blank size estimation along with piece price and scrap calculation.
The D-Eval-in-NX facilitates engineers to analyze die design within the NX environment using an efficient non-linear finite element program specially developed for simulation of sheet metal forming processes.
