Looking at leadframe material properties

You can look at the properties of the various leadframe materials available in the databases.

Autodesk Simulation Moldflow databases include a default leadframe material for you to use in your simulation. If you use different leadframe materials, it is advisable for you to create your own database with your materials data. The closer the data used in a simulation is to real-life, the more accurate your results will be.

  1. Open a new or existing project.
  2. Select Search (Tools tab > Databases panel > Search). The Search Databases dialog appears.
  3. Select Leadframe material from the Property type list, then click OK. This opens the Search Leadframe material Databases dialog.
  4. Select a leadframe material, then click Details to open the Leadframe material dialog. If you have not created a leadframe material database of your own, there is a default material available for you to select.
  5. When you have finished studying the properties of the selected leadframe material, click OK to exit out of the dialog.
