• SOLIDReporter - An add-in product for all SOLIDWORKS users (Jul 13, 2021)

  Logopress, a long-time SOLIDWORKS software partner, announced the launch of a new add-in product called SOLIDReporter which has been developed for all SOLIDWORKS users. SOLIDReporter is an easy-to-use and affordable add-in designed to work seamlessly within SOLIDWORKS to automatically record, monitor and manage time, tasks, and projects.

  SOLIDReporter will automatically record time spend working on parts, assemblies or drawings while automatically switching between projects based on criteria defined by the user. It also provides the flexibility of creating custom tasks to keep track of time spent while working outside of SOLIDWORKS, whether it is time spent in meetings, on breaks, in the shop, etc.

  SOLIDReporter helps the user and the manager to monitor their projects in real time. It also allows the user and the manager to generate analytical reports by project, task, or time period. SOLIDReporter is designed to be forgotten, without forgetting what was worked on in SOLIDWORKS.

  SOLIDReporter automatically stops allocating time to a project, based on a user defined period of inactivity in SOLIDWORKS. The user can also add notes such as reminders, ideas, and questions to the currently active project in order to follow up on them later. In addition, a time budget can be set for each individual project. SOLIDReporter then monitors the amount of the budgeted time used providing alerts at project milestones.

  Ray Proeber, president of Accurate Die design Software, stated: “People are often pulled in many different directions and at the end of the day, they don’t want to have to remember what they spent their time on and how long they spent on it. It is also typically only a guess and not an accurate accounting of their time. SOLIDReporter does away with this headache. In no time at all SOLIDReporter will become an indispensable time and project management tool for automatically recording time and generating reports in SOLIDWORKS.”

  A companion product of SOLIDReporter SOLO is SOLIDReporter TEAM REPORT. Its main goal is to easily create consolidated reports by project, by task and by time period, for a group of coworkers using SOLIDReporter SOLO.

  You can manage and analyze data recorded by 1 or more copies of SOLIDReporter SOLO and allows you to create compiled reports for multiple users and Team. Useful for the project manager, team leader, department head etc. and can be installed on a computer that does not have SOLIDWORKS

  SOLIDReporter and SOLIDReporter TEAM REPORT are available for purchase today from www.SOLIDReporter.com. Volume purchases in the United States may be made through Logopress’ North American distributor, Accurate Die Design Software, Inc., www.DieDesignSoftware.com.

• Logopress ProgSim – Forming Simulation of Progressive Dies inside SOLIDWORKS & Logopress DieDesign Software (Jul 13, 2021)

  Logopress®, a long-time SOLIDWORKS® software partner, announced the launch of a new software product called Logopress ProgSim. This new software enables progressive die designers working in SOLIDWORKS to efficiently simulate, modify, and validate their strip layouts. The software allows them to gain deep insight into the forming process and take corrective measures on the computer screen to prevent costly prototyping and reduce time spent in the tryout press.

  Logopress ProgSim was developed using incremental simulation technology powered by the proven, industry-leading AutoForm solver. It is customized for small to medium-sized progressive die companies that want to attain highly accurate results in stamping simulation but cannot justify the cost of an incremental simulation software that does not have a size limitation on the parts that it can simulate. Logopress ProgSim is an affordable, easy to use, and highly accurate forming simulation software, which fully meets the needs of these companies, even for those without any prior FEA experience.

  The newly developed software allows progressive die designers rapid and accurate forming simulation of the progressive die process, including drawing, flanging, and forming operations—as well as springback. Users can gain deep insight into the forming process, including force prediction, and can quickly identify problem areas such as wrinkles, splits, or excessive thinning that might occur during the process. This knowledge of the forming process, revealed on the computer screen, expands the overall formability know-how of the entire design department and is also very useful for estimators and die makers.

  Logopress ProgSim acts as a virtual tryout press for forming and enables die designers to validate a process quickly and accurately even before the actual die design has begun. This reduces time and costs related to prototyping, as well as time spent in the tryout press.

  Yves Thizy, Global Sales Director at Logopress, stated: “I am pleased and excited that we can offer such an effective software option to progressive die designers working with SOLIDWORKS & Logopress DieDesign as it enables them to eliminate formability issues before they build a die. Logopress ProgSim allows them to see what they will achieve in the tryout press while still designing the strip layout. I started my career in the tool & die industry, 30 years ago, at the time of the ‘wire EDM machine revolution’. My feeling is that Logopress ProgSim will soon become as natural and indispensable for a die designer as a wire EDM machine has been to every company that builds dies. Without a doubt, it will lead to a consistently faster and more profitable delivery of progressive dies.”
