Case Study

Engineering programmes in practice.

Selected studies on how Make Intelligence applies Auto-Die Design to automotive forming workflows — focused on geometry, simulation and manufacturability.

Closing the forming design loop

How engineering teams can move from repeated CAD–CAE cycles toward a structured, AI-assisted optimisation loop for manufacturable geometry.

Challenge

Complex body and structural stampings often require many manual geometry revisions before thinning, wrinkling, cracking or springback risks are brought under control. Simulation feedback is valuable, but interpretation and the next design action remain slow and experience-dependent.

Approach

Auto-Die Design converts CAD geometry into engineering-aware features, connects forming simulation signals to those features, and proposes controlled geometry modifications under engineer-defined objectives and constraints.

Outcome

A clearer engineering workflow where design intent, manufacturability evaluation and optimisation remain linked — reducing fragmented iteration while keeping engineers in control of decisions.
