The best software for accurate blank development and advanced forming feasibility in Siemens NX
Blank Estimation Wizard is an essential toolkit for sheet metal product designers, Estimators, and Tool Engineers working with NX. It provides NX users a complete tool for accurately estimating blank size and detailed formability analysis in earlier phases of stamped components and draw development cycle. It determines if a component can be stamped consistently with minimum cost, while fulfilling all product performance requirements.

It optimizes material utilization and outputs reports for quoting and estimating. Formability analysis is based on component or die geometry and accounts for material properties, friction, blank-holder force, pressure pad, drawbeads, curved binder, and displacement constraints. It is fully integrated into NX and enables detailed thinning, thickening, Forming Limit Diagram, strain and stress evaluations only with NX basic modeling application modules.
