CAD Morpher is a transformational software from DEP which allows users to morph existing CAD data (body structures, powertrain and chassis parts) directly to new shapes rapidly.
For example, the complete BIW CAD data of an existing production vehicle can be morphed and made to fit a new vehicle’s styling data and/or proportions.
Several months of CAD development can be reduced using our patented CAD morphing technology.
CAD morphing can be carried out at all different stages of product development:
- Early concept stage: Existing donor CAD data can be morphed to target new styling data and vehicle proportions
- Vehicle architecture development: Existing BIW CAD data can be automatically updated to fit new sections as determined by architecture team
- Vehicle optimization: Existing CAD data can be updated to match optimized results obtained by the CAE team
Morphed CAD data thus obtained can be used for studies involving packaging, formability, styling, human factors, ergonomics, CAE, supplier sourcing etc. very early on in the program.
CAD Morpher is the perfect link between the CAE teams and the design department. Optimized Finite Element and CFD data can be communicated to the design department directly as morphed CAD data.
