Friction and Lubrication Simulation Software 'TriboForm'
Achieving a new level of simulation accuracy! Simulating friction and lubrication conditions.
TriboForm is software that can quickly simulate the coating of molds, lubrication, surface characteristics of materials, friction of new sheet materials, and ultimately the quality of products in the press forming process. By considering the effects of tribology more realistically, it enables a new level of simulation accuracy. TriboForm products enhance the AutoForm product line. 【Features】 ■ Accurate representation of complex tribological phenomena ■ Simulation, display, and evaluation of friction and lubrication conditions ■ Easy integration with representative simulation software ■ Avoid costly mold modifications during trials and production *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

[Magazine Contribution] December Issue of Molding Technology "Molding Technology Workshop 2022 in Gifu" Conference Proceedings Published
The December issue of Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun's "Mold Technology" features a collection of papers from the "Mold Technology Workshop 2022 in Gifu." This collection includes 43 general presentation papers related to mold processing, pressing and forging, injection molding, die casting, and the digitalization of manufacturing, all presented at the "Mold Technology Workshop" held on Thursday, November 17, at Juuroku Plaza in Gifu City, Gifu Prefecture. ■ "Friction Modeling with TriboForm" Masakazu Muramoto, AutoForm Japan In conventional press forming simulations, the definition of the friction coefficient based on Coulomb's law is common. However, in actual press forming, many disturbances occur, such as surface pressure, speed, and lubrication conditions, which cause the friction coefficient to change sequentially. As an example of solving this issue, we will introduce the concept of friction modeling with TriboForm, along with practical application cases in AutoForm. Please take a look.
