Software / Graphics & Design →Altair Inspire Form 2024.1 Win x64

New Features and Enhancements 2024.1
The Inspire Form 2024.1 release includes the following new features and enhancements.
Resolved Issues
General:
- Fixed an issue where callouts couldn't be created for edge displacement and edge strain.
- Fixed an issue where section cuts weren't fully supported with FE mesh objects.
- Fixed an issue where the part selection dialog couldn't be moved and overlapped with other dialogs while visualizing results.
- Fixed an issue where the Move manipulator didn't appear on the center of gravity of selected objects.
- Fixed an issue where the Measure tool wasn't supported for objects represented by FE mesh.
Feasibility
- Fixed an issue where the draw direction wasn't aligning to the face normal.
- Fixed an issue where Min and Max springback displacements were shown at the same location in the published Tryout report.
- Fixed an issue where the Cam-Pad-Front was moving in the opposite direction of the attached CAM tool.
- Fixed an issue where the Trim operation deleted the wrong part of the blank in special use cases.
- Fixed an issue where the application sometimes crashed when starting a run.
- Improved the offset edge for drawbead creation for robustness

Altair Inspire Formis a complete stamping simulation environment that can effectively be used by product designers and process engineers to optimize designs, simulate robust manufacturing and reduce material costs. With the fast and easy feasibility module, users can analyze parts in seconds to predict formability early in the product development cycle. The automated blank nesting proposes an efficient layout of the flattened blank on the sheet coil to maximize material utilization. The tryout module includes a highly scalable incremental solver, helping users to iterate and simulate multi-stage forming, trimming and springback in a modern and intuitive user interface, reducing complexity and making the production of high quality parts more economical. Altair Inspire Form also offers an innovative user experience to seamlessly transition between design and analysis through a highly intuitive user interface designed for beginners and experts alike. It enables part and process designers to evaluate manufacturability early in the development cycle to avoid costly trials downstream. Altair Inspire Form automatically generates a report for fitted and nested blanks to help maximize material utilization
