Anyone using the Prog. Die Wizzard on NX5?
(OP)
We ajust started testing NX5 with the die wizzard. We gave up on it in NX3. From the looks of it, they are now including metaform but calling it one-step unforming. My question is how many of you on this board are using the PDW, and how do you like it?

Our Stamping designers have had PDW for 18 months and have been trained in NX3 and PDW from (UGS)Siemens. I myself design product and have history with molds(cast/plastic) and trim dies. They really haven't used it much unfortunately. We are in the process of bringing on TC and NX5 from ideas. is PDW compatable with 5.02.2, last i heard it wasn't. They have been doing a few strips but not entire designs.

Are you using it in Native or TC? We run MoldWizard in Tc an it is a dog, i am afraid to see what will happen with PDW. Our local UGS guy was in last week and sugesseted getting a licence for One Stem Formability Analysis, this will flatten coins and gussets and draws. He wasn;t able to show it but it seems to be what we need. with the product end i have found it best to have clean NX Sheet Metal parts. I flatten them for them so I'm am not sure what they would use.
Thanks
