Cloud Based Optimisation Of An Extrusion Die

EMO plans to improve their flat slit extrusion dies by numerical methods: The main challenge in plastic mold extrusion is to generate a uniform flow field across the exit plane of an extrusion die. The aim of the experiment is to analyse the structural interaction between the plastic melt and the shaping tool and to optimise the extrusion die design with a simulation and optimisation workflow running on HPC cloud computing resources.
