AUTOMATED VARIANT ANALYSIS AND OPTIMIZATION SOFTWARE FOR PLASTIC INJECTION MOLDING
VARIMOS is an automation layer that sits on top of our simulation software CADMOULD. Its automations help you to quickly generate many design variants, simulate them hyper-efficiently, and analyze results from multiple simulations in a summarized fashion. Powerful artificial intelligence helps you by suggesting optimal solutions, based on your targets!
VARIMOS Results: Sensitivity analysis and optimization
Interactive results: not a black box!
VARIMOS doesn’t just present you with a single black-box “optimum” solution. Rather, it makes a suggestion, and then you can play around, change variable settings and see what would change, if you did it differently.
Super simple results
Simply change the variable sliders on the left, and instantly see what will happen to your results, on the right. The results update in real-time. No need to run more simulations and wait!
SENSITIVITY

CASE EXAMPLE
OPTIMIZING SHRINKAGE AND WARPAGE
We used VARIMOS automation to find a better solution that successfully minimized shrinkage and warpage.
The laser-welding succeeded and the customer won an award for their innovative engineering solutions.
CASE EXAMPLE
SINK MARKS ON AN INDUSTRIAL FILTER CASE
This industrial filter case had significant sink marks, as you can see on the left-side picture.
VARIMOS was used to find ways to fix this issue, while also reducing weight.
The result was significantly reduced sink marks, with simultaneously reduced part weight!
HOW DOES VARIMOS WORK?
The good news is: it’s super simple. All you need to do is three things: define goals, define your variables, and get results!
1. Set goals
You define your goals and which quality measures you want to optimize.
2. DEFINE VARIABLES
You then tell VARIMOS which variables and parameters it may change and what restrictions it must not violate.
3. GET RESULTS
Based on your answers, VARIMOS will create a Design Of Experiments for you, automatically run these experiments as simulations, create a meta model from the results, and visualize the results for you, simply and interactively.
