ExtrusionFlow simulates metal flow, pressure, temperature distribution and die stress inside the die, letting you catch balance, deformation and weld-line problems on the 3D model — before cutting any metal.
ExtrusionFlow highlights exactly where flow velocity is uneven across pockets, so bearing lengths can be corrected before the physical trial. The same 3D model used by Extrumat feeds directly into the simulation — no re-modeling, no format conversion.
Simulations run against a database of real aluminium alloy flow-stress and thermal properties, so results reflect the actual billet material rather than a generic aluminium approximation.
Metal flow velocity, pressure, temperature distribution and die stress/deformation — all on the actual 3D die model, before any physical trial.
It replaces most of the trial-and-error: major balance, deformation and weld-line issues surface on screen first, so the physical trial becomes a confirmation step rather than a discovery process.
Yes — the same 3D model flows directly from Extrumat into ExtrusionFlow, with no re-modeling or file conversion needed.
A full flow, thermal and stress simulation on a typical die completes in under 2 hours — a virtual die trial rather than a multi-day physical one.
A built-in database of aluminium alloy flow-stress and thermal properties, so results reflect the real billet alloy rather than a generic material model.
