Offer Description

Meeting European goals in terms of carbon emissions rises important challenges for the Automobile industry.

Car must be lighter and therefore the use of lighter and/or thinner materials is fundamental. These metallic sheets often exhibit a strong anisotropic behavior and therefore it is always a challenge to design a forming process in order to fulfill the geometric and visual quality requirements of the parts.

Within this context, Renault, AutoForm and CEMEF have joined forces in order to propose an end-to-end predictive modeling tool that significantly speeds up the designing process of new parts. The key physical phenomenon that must be controlled concerns the material spring-back. Spring-back can be defined as the elastic deformation that is released once the part is removed from the tool.
