Version AM / WELD -FLOW-3D Software
FLOW-3D AM integrates the advanced capabilities of FLOW-3D software with the precision of laser, DEM, and WELD modules to accurately simulate the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process. These simulations encompass detailed multi-layer powder deposition dynamics as well as the direct deposition (DED) process, catering to critical industrial applications. This software is designed to provide in-depth insights into keyhole formation, melt pool behavior, and the melting front dynamics. It offers maximum flexibility for configuring various laser sources of different shapes and powers and supports multi-material handling, ensuring comprehensive process simulation. Industries such as aerospace, automotive, biotechnology, maritime engineering, and additive manufacturing benefit from FLOW-3D AM's capability to simulate complex welding processes and advanced manufacturing techniques with high precision.Most popular related searches
FLOW-3D AM is the expert combination of the FLOW-3D software with the laser, DEM and WELD modules to simulate the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process, including multi-layer powder deposition dynamics, or the “direct deposition” (DED) process.
This software can provide the detail of laser (or arc) melting dynamics on spatial scales ranging from the microscale to tens of millimetres, with information on keyhole generation, melting pool, temperature gradients, coupled with the best metal dynamics solver.
FLOW-3D AM allows the entire process to be easily simulated, from the simulation of powders through the DEM module, to the passage of the laser through the WELD module.
