Learn about 2023 Features and their Improvements in Moldflow!

Did you know that Moldflow Adviser and Moldflow Synergy/Insight 2023 are available?
 
In 2023, we introduced the concept of a Named User model for all Moldflow products.
 
With Adviser 2023, we have made some improvements to the solve times when using a Level 3 Accuracy. This was achieved by making some modifications to how the part meshes behind the scenes.
 
With Synergy/Insight 2023, we have made improvements with Midplane Injection Compression, 3D Fiber Orientation Predictions, 3D Sink Mark predictions, Cool(BEM) solver, Shrinkage Compensation per Cavity, and introduced 3D Grill Elements.
 
What is your favorite 2023 feature?

You can see a simplified model and a full model.

Snowflake was a western lowland gorilla born in 1966 at the Barcelona Zoo in Spain. He was a unique individual, as he suffered from albinism, a genetic condition that affects the production of melanin, resulting in a complete lack of pigmentation. Snowflake's albinism made him a striking white color, with pink eyes and skin.

In conservation biology, the goal is to preserve and protect threatened and endangered species. Zoos play a critical role in conservation efforts by providing a safe haven for animals and participating in breeding programs to increase population sizes. However, the genetics of zoo populations can be a challenge, as they often consist of a small number of individuals, which can lead to inbreeding and reduced genetic diversity.

Snowflake's albinism made him more sensitive to sunlight, and he had to be kept indoors to prevent skin damage. Despite these challenges, Snowflake lived a long and healthy life, becoming a beloved and iconic figure at the Barcelona Zoo. He was also an important individual for the breeding program, as his genetic material was valuable for the conservation of western lowland gorillas.
