ESI Launches PAM-COMPOSITES 2016
Complete Simulation Solution to Perfect Composite Material Manufacturing at
Every Stage
Paris, France - 29 September, 2016 - ESI Group, leading innovator in Virtual
Prototyping software and services for manufacturing industries, announces the
release of its PAM-COMPOSITES 2016 software solution to provide process and
design engineers with its full suite of modules to predict, analyze and correct
manufacturing defects of composite structural components across the complete
manufacturing chain.
The cost-effective solution combines the existing modules of ESI Group with new,
innovative enhancements that enable process and design engineers to precisely
identify the origin of defects and manufacture composite parts with a higher
degree of accuracy; reducing material waste and obsoleting the need for costly
and time consuming trial and error approaches.

chain for developing a defect-free aeronautic composite fuselage panel.
Using the ESI PAM-COMPOSITES solution, process and design engineers can tailor
simulations to the exact nature of the composite material and their unique shop
floor environment to improve process stability and reduce manufacturing defects
for a vast range of composites manufacturing processes. These include: draping,
thermoforming, Liquid Composites Molding (LCM), Resin Transfer Molding (RTM),
and curing , as well as two new robot draping processes: Automated Fiber
Placement (AFP) and Automated Tape Layering (ATL).
Jacinto Tortosa, CEO at FIDAMC - a Spanish company aiming to consolidate their
leadership position in composite material technology - recognizes the
contribution of numerical simulation to their success. He states that ESI PAM-
COMPOSITES allows them to perform "the analysis and optimization of each
individual manufacturing operation" so they can "save cost and speed up project
completion, substituting manufacturing trials by simulation ".
In PAM-COMPOSITES 2016, the newly introduced Design of Experiments (DoE)
functionality automatically analyzes variations in the composite material and
manufacturing process parameters to allow process and design engineers to
optimize key influencing parameters and improve process stability.
The new Die Spotting functionality allows process and design engineers to
automatically morph existing tools to ensure a perfect contact with the part.
This avoids the bridging effects often seen with thermoformed organo-sheet
components where resin migration and lack of compaction leads to visible
defects. It also allows engineers to avoid the incidence of areas with low fiber
content or race tracking during resin injection or infusion.
PAM-COMPOSITES brings together the PAM-FORM, PAM-RTM and PAM-DISTORTION modules
into one, competitively-priced bundle within a process-oriented Graphical User
Interface to free specialist resources and allow all engineers to use this
highly intuitive solution.

manufacturing defects for composite structural components across the complete
manufacturing chain. Manufacturing processes covered include draping,
thermoforming, Liquid Composites Molding (LCM), Resin Transfer Molding (RTM),
and curing.
