Once the single or multi-stage operation model setup is complete, start the tryout by clicking the Run button. The progress of the analysis can be visualized in the run status dialog. In multi-stage run operations, they are completed in the sequence defined. After completion, the progress bar shows a flag to load the results by clicking on the green flag. The Analysis Explorer lists results of all the defined operations and allows switching among them seamlessly. Percentage thinning for mobility based on the forming limit diagram is available for the top, middle, and bottom surface of a blank. This is used to contour and check the forming feasibility of the tool design. The force required for forming the tools is plotted in an additional window. When selecting tools of interest, the results can be animated to see how the blank can be incrementally deformed by tool motion to the desired shape. Call-outs are available to locally query the results at locations of interest for an in-depth understanding of the behavior of the blank during deformation between tools. Legend colors can be adjusted for more discrete color variations using the legend context menu or preference settings.
