Case Study: Uponor achieves higher productivity and material savings with MSC Software's Simufact.forming

Process optimization through forming simulation

Uponor GmbH, a supplier of plastic pipe systems, faced the challenge of entering the die forging business to produce metal fittings in-house, seeking greater flexibility and cost reduction. To compensate for a lack of experience in forging, they turned to vendor MSC Software and utilized their Simufact.forming process simulation software to develop and optimize their forming processes.

The solution implemented by MSC Software involved using simulation to evaluate and optimize forging processes before physical production. This allowed Uponor to increase machine led to more robust and efficient manufacturing processes.
