Profil
PROFIL is the roll form design software for every manufacturer of cold roll-formed profiles or seamed tubes from sheet metal and for designers of rollformers and tube mills.
It enables quicker working and cost reductions in planning, design, calculation and drawing of the profile, the flower pattern (bending steps) and the roll tooling. Besides, it is available for all WINDOWS platforms and has an easy to use WINDOWS-based user interface, which enables experienced roll form designers to learn through self-tuition.
Features:
- Supports the section definition.
- Create new profiles by: Enter the dimensions in the system, import a CAD contour or use the standard profile design toolbox
- Determine the neutral line and calculate the length of the sheet metal developed
- Speeds up the design of flower pattern
- Supports modification and optimization of the flower, the stress of the band edge is recalculated and displayed after every modification of a bending angle.
- Speeds up the roll design by directly using the profile contour or any contour drawn in CAD.
- Supports manufacturing of the roll tools by creation of parts lists and NC-programs.
- Supports the quality management by checking the final design with the calculation of stress of band edge, the profile stress analysis (PSA), and the finite element simulation (FEA) using LS-DYNA.
- Helps search for suitable rolls if existing old rolls of the roll stock should be re-used in a new project.
- Helps to search for recent projects if the designer wants to consider experience from similar profiles that are produced in the past.
