Deform 3d Tutorial

When you launch Deform 3D, you will see the main interface divided into several sections:

Click the "Check" icon to ensure no errors exist. deform 3d tutorial

Set the friction coefficient (typically 0.3 for hot forging using the Shear friction law). When you launch Deform 3D, you will see

Once the simulation finishes, open the to see what happened: When you launch Deform 3D

Usually, dies are defined as Rigid to save computation time, assuming they won't deform under load. Phase C: Meshing the Workpiece

Once you master the workflow above, explore these features in your next DEFORM 3D tutorial:

Set the For a basic tutorial, 20,000 to 40,000 elements is a good balance between accuracy and speed.
