GLASS FORMING
FORGE® NxT addressing glass forming process
Glass containers are produced based on 2 major processes, blow-blow process and press-blow process. FORGE® NxT addresses these 2 processes and provides an accurate prediction of:
-
The thickness in the final stage at any point of the glass container,
-
Local necking defect,
-
The temperature distribution at any time of the process,
-
The optimal pressure cycle to apply.
Competitive features:
-
Accurate temperature calculation with dedicated numerical methods and integration scheme as well as coupled thermal resolution with all the dies thanks to appropriate and smart contact procedure,
-
Dedicated model for glass (Fulcher) with available data and possibility to use end-user own tabulated curves,
-
Dedicated meshing technique to finely capture temperature gradient in the thickness without impacting the CPU time,
