DEFORM Heat Treatment & Microstructure Modelling Webinar

Wednesday 18 November 2009 - 14.00 - 14.15

DEFORM Webinars Overview

Join us in our regular series of webinars that are designed to give an introduction to the applications of the DEFORM software.

DEFORM is a powerful process simulation system designed to analyse the flow of complex manufacturing processes. DEFORM provide fast and cost effective information about existing or potential processes and has a proven track record as the premier metal forming simulation code. With easy-to-use wizard style interfaces and an open system DEFORM can be used by design engineers, researchers and analysts alike.

* DEFORM Machining - Thursday 19th November - 10.00-11.15

Why Use Simulation?

A significant time and cost investment is made in developing a process prior to the first production run. Markets and are changing faster and the traditional development methods of shop floor 'trial and error' are too slow.

DEFORM provides insight into a potential process that can influence the design before problems may occur and will provide process information that will not be available on the shop floor. In a world of increasing cost and time pressures, simulation can be used to develop optimum processes with fewer shop trials in less time. This leads on to improved product quality and reduced costs.

DEFORM Heat Treatment & Microstructure Modelling Webinar


Date: Wednesday 18th November
Time: 14.00 - 14.15

DEFORM Heat Treatment & Microstructure Modelling Webinar Outline

The DEFORM system can predict thermal, mechanical and metallurgical responses of parts during heat treatment and deformation processes. Heat treat distortion, quench cracking and residual stresses can be simulated in order to optimise schedules and processes. The system can also provide information on phase transformation and phase volume fraction. Microstructure evolution can also be predicted such as grain size and recrystalisation.

A variety of materials ranging from carbon steel and aluminum to titanium and nickel based alloys can be modeled. Typical heat treatment processes include:

* Heat Treatment Processes such as Normalising, Austenising, Carburising, Quenching and Tempering
* Aging & Stress relieving
* Grain size prediction
* Microstructure Evolution

This webinar will give an overview of the technologies available in DEFORM for heat treatment processes and microstructure evolution.
