Moldex3D/eDesign-Fiber 

Moldex3D-Fiber accurately simulates the 3D fiber orientation in mold-filling process and further calculates the process-induced anisotropic thermo-mechanical properties of fiber-reinforced plastic part. With Moldex3D-Fiber, users can understand the 3D orientation of fiber and further control the anisotropic shrinkage of fiber-reinforced part. The process-induced anisotropic shrinkage and mechanical properties due to fiber orientation are therefore taken into account for accurate warpage prediction. 


With Moldex3D/eDesign-Fiber, users can understand the 3D orientation of fiber and further control the anisotropic shrinkage of fiber-reinforced part. Based on true 3D technology, it provides accurate and detailed 3D fiber orientation information throughout the part. The process-induced anisotropic shrinkage and mechanical properties due to fiber orientation are therefore taken into account for accurate warpage prediction.
