Plastic Injection Moulding Simulation Software

What is Cadmould Flex?

Cadmould Flex is SIMCON’s new subscription-based version of its injection molding simulation software CADMOULD. It combines fast and highly accurate 3D-F simulation with a modern interface, flexible runtimes, and automatic license management.

How is Cadmould Flex different from a classical CADMOULD license?

Unlike perpetual licenses, Cadmould Flex uses a flexible subscription model. Users can choose 1-, 12-, or 36-month terms, freely combine modules, and easily upgrade or expand — with no hardware dongles or manual activation required.

What advantages does Cadmould Flex offer to simulation specialists?

Simulation engineers benefit from an intuitive interface, faster computation through the proprietary 3D-F algorithm, and AI-assisted optimization with Varimos AI. It helps identify root causes of filling, packing, and warpage issues and find optimal design and process settings quickly.

Which Cadmould Flex plans are available?

Cadmould Flex is available in five tiers: Viewer, Flex Basic, Flex Advanced, Flex Premium, and Flex Enterprise. Each tier offers a defined scope — from visualization and filling simulation up to full 3D thermals, warpage, HPC computing, and Varimos AI optimization.

What is the 3D-F algorithm?

3D-F is SIMCON’s proprietary simulation algorithm that combines the accuracy of full 3D volumetric models with the speed of shell or midplane methods. It delivers a superior speed-to-accuracy ratio compared with traditional simulation kernels.

How does Varimos AI assist the simulation process?

Varimos AI automatically analyzes cause-and-effect relationships between geometry, process parameters, and quality results. It builds smart Design-of-Experiments (DoE) studies, identifies the main influencing factors, and proposes optimized parameter combinations.

Can non-experts use Cadmould Flex effectively?

Yes. The Basic and Advanced tiers are designed for beginners and occasional users. Guided workflows, AI-based assistance, and clear visualizations make it easy to achieve reliable simulation results without deep simulation expertise.

Which contract durations and payment options are available?

Users can choose between 1-, 12-, or 36-month terms. Longer contracts offer lower monthly rates. Payment can be made monthly or annually via credit card or invoice, depending on the plan.
