Functionality Table
Please have a look at the following functionality table between COPRA FEA RF Professional (F1) and COPRA FEA RF Foundation (F2):
Functionality Table | F1 | F2 |
|---|---|---|
| Automatic preparation of the FEA model directly from the existing COPRA RF design data |
|
|
| Special tools for an easy, efficient and detailed “roll forming“ analysis / interpretation of simulation results |
|
|
| Welding of symmetrical and unsymmetrical sections (without taking into account heat effects) |
|
|
| Material database fuelled with real test data from material vendor | ||
| Automatic chamfer generation | ||
| Simulation with rotating rolls and friction. Allows to estimate the roll forming speed and power requirements |
|
|
| Pre-, Post- and Inline Punching with automatic calculation of the mesh including punched holes |
|
|
| Calculation of the forming forces and resulting shaft deflection by considering station stiffness |
|
|
| Simulations queue to avoid idle times |
|
|
| Advanced COPRA Process Control dashboard with live and history information to monitor running simulation |
|
|
| Restart functionality: modifications in the design can be implemented and the simulation restarted from that point on |
|
|
| Advanced restart functionality: modifications to the tooling and/or mesh. Includes automatic import of already existing meshes |
|
|
| Automatic restart of simulations after a power shutdown |
|
|
| Automatic report preparation (MS Word, HTML and PDF formats) reducing the time needed to create a post process report by up to 90% |
|
|
| Prediction of wear areas in the profile | ||
| Post-processing tools to Investigate end flare | ||
| Comprehensive overview of complete roll forming line results | ||
| Export of simulated results to external FEA packages |
|
|
| Video tutorials and user guides with step-by-step illustrated instructions and ready-to-use simulation models |
|

The COPRA FEA RF software includes MSC.Marc and MSC.Mentat as OEM application. This OEM version of the MSC.Marc software may only be used in combination with the COPRA FEA RF software. Any adaption of simulation models generated with COPRA FEA RF can only be made with the COPRA FEA RF software program and its embedded OEM-Version of the MSC.MARC Software.
