eXplorer for NX
Many NX users are designing complex plastic parts with complicated wall thickness variations.
Moldex3D eXplorer for NX provides insights into part design and the molding process very cost-effectively. Through visualizing 3D melt front advancement, gate contribution, weld line, air trap, temperature, molecular orientation and cooling time results, users can further optinmize their part design for both performance enhancement and cost reduction.
Moldex3D eXplorer is fully integrated into NX and is very easy to use. Simply assign gate locations directly on your plastic part, select a material and eXplorer will do the rest automatically! eXplorer for NX allows you to quickly check the manufacturability and quality of your plastic part design early in the design cycle, reducing time and cost on all of your plastic parts.
eXplorer is also available for Pro/ENGINEER and SolidWorks.

Design Re-use with Geolus Shape Search Being more efficient can make the difference between success and failure. The lower the cost the easier it is to price a deal-winning quote. Re-doing previous work instead of re-using an existing design decreases efficiency, adding to costs, taking resources away from innovation and losing an opportunity to standarize. |
