Models imported from Autodesk® Simulation Mechanical are easily prepared for a Moldflow analysis.
Several preliminary steps are automatically set when working with a model exported from Autodesk® Simulation Mechanical. The material selected in Autodesk® Simulation Mechanical is imported, an appropriate analysis technology is selected, a gate location based on the geometry of the part is recommended, and the analysis sequence is set to Fill + Pack.
Note: An Advanced license is required to take advantage of this feature.
Select Run Fill + Pack Analysis to select the default settings. An injection location is placed at the suggested gate location and the analysis is performed.
Note: For analyses of parts where structural performance criteria are critical, it is important that the injection location used in the analysis should match the injection location used in production.
You can select alternate gates and materials as required.
When you have set up the Autodesk Moldflow analysis parameters you require, select 
Start Analysis!
When the analysis is complete, the resulting process-induced mechanical properties are automatically made available toAutodesk Simulation Mechanical for use in the structural analysis.
Note: In order for Autodesk Moldflow results to transfer successfully for the structural analysis, you cannot change the orientation of the imported model with respect to the global coordinate system or modify the geometry. You should not change the name of the study that was created on import.
