MANUFACTURE exactly what hasbeen designed. Use Laminate

Tools results to nest, cut and place(project) the flat patterns with third­

party products. Allow shop­floorpersonnel to access the native

information for best results.

Manufacture

CHECK FEA results and useLaminate Tools to generate new

Failure Indices, Margins of Safetyand Reserve Factors, or even layer

stresses. Examine results byloadcase, by layer, by global ply,layer by layer for each element,

group worst elements, etc.

Check

ANALYSE the composite Layup byconverting the global ply drapingresults to accurate local elementmaterial properties (laminates) foruse in FEA.

Analysis

DESIGN the composites aspectsfor your structure. Build the entireLayup by simulating the draping offabric material over complexsurfaces. Review and make rapidchanges before finalising theplybook.

Design

VIEW, interpret, verify, share,communicate and safeguardall the composite materials

information.Use industry­standard methods

and proven technology tominimise design time.
