To import process variations from MPX

You can simulate actual injection molding process variations by importing data about the process from Moldflow Plastics Expert (MPX).

The machine data must be exported from MPX in UDM file (ASCII model file *.udm) format. The imported data sets up a new Design of Experiments (DOE) analysis in the current study.

Note: Importing process variations is only available for the Thermoplastic Injection Molding Process.

1. Open the project and study into which you want to place the imported data.
2. Click (Home tab > Molding Process Setup panel > Import MPX Process Variations).
3. Locate the UDM File (*.udm) that contains the data you want to import.
4. Click Open.
5. Click OK.
6. Click OK.

The Analysis Sequence of the current study is updated to include the imported Delta values in the DOE analysis.
