Zero Scrap Welds
Catch distortion risk on screen, not on the floor
By the time a fabricated assembly is out of tolerance, the welding is already done. Reworking a distorted structure costs far more than adjusting a weld sequence on screen.
A structure that's warped out of tolerance won't mate with adjoining components, forcing costly on-site correction or scrapping the part entirely.
High tensile residual stress left in a joint after welding can seed cracks that only surface after the part is in service.
Without simulation, finding a working weld sequence often means welding, measuring, scrapping, and welding again — burning material and shop time.
A moving heat source model traces the weld path, replicating the arc's energy and travel speed.
Temperature-dependent material behaviour captures how the zone around the weld changes as it heats and cools.
As the weld cools and contracts against the surrounding cold material, internal stress builds up in the joint.
That locked-in stress translates into the bowing, twisting, or shrinkage seen in the finished structure.
Instead of manually defining every thermal and structural parameter, the guided setup asks for the inputs that matter most — joint geometry, pass sequence, and material — and handles the rest.
Element activation for filler material, heat source placement along the weld path, and the thermal-to-structural handoff are automated rather than hand-built.
A welding engineer without deep simulation experience can run a meaningful analysis — the workflow doesn't require a dedicated FEA specialist for every study.
