Moldflow Plastics Advisers® (MPA®)

Moldflow Plastics Advisers® (MPA®) is easy to use plastics simulation software that allows part and mold designers to optimize their designs during the earliest stages of new product development.

MAnalysis Capabilities

- Plastic Filling Analysis
- Sink Marks Analysis
- Cooling Quality Analysis
- Gate Location Analysis
- Molding Window Analysis
- Key Benefits

- Evaluate the manufacturing feasibility of every design iteration
- Identify the most suitable plastics material candidate
- Optimize the part wall thickness to achieve uniform filling, minimum cycle time, and lowest part cost
- Identify and eliminate cosmetic defects such as sink marks, weld lines, and air traps
- Visualize the orientation of plastic to maximize part strength, especially in the vicinity of weld lines
- Obtain practical, results-specific advice on improving the part design
- Determine the best gate locations for a given part design
- Estimate the impact of changes to the part design or material selection on the overall part cost
- Communicate key design analysis aspects to the mold designer through automated, web-based, HTML project reports.
