Create a draw die in Inspire Studio that you can export to Inspire Form to perform a stamping simulation.
First define the part and then adjust the draw direction to create a draw die.
Fill in missing surfaces.

Start using Inspire Studio with our interactive tutorials.
Create and edit a 2D sketch curve. A sketch curve is any "wire" entity such as a line, rectangle, circle, or arc.
Create and edit 3D curves by extending, rebuilding, intersecting, splitting, and projecting the shapes.
Create and edit 3D surfaces and solids by creating primitives or editing existing curves and surfaces.
Create polygonal surfaces that can easily be converted into NURBS surfaces. PolyNURBS combines the ease and simplicity of polygonal modeling with the precision and flexibility of NURBS, allowing you to quickly create free-form solid geometry that is smooth and continuous.
Create new objects by manipulating and modifying source objects.
Deform one or more objects with respect to an axis.
Measure dimensions, analyze curvature, check for continuity and watertightness, analyze the draft, detect undercuts, and create design iterations on the fly.
Dimension a line, edge, bounding box, angle, and radius/diameter in order to create objects which must fit predefined dimensions. You can also insert a general annotation to label the parts of your model.
Create detailed 2D drawings of the selected parts of a complex 3D model from multiple perspectives.
Adjust the materials, environment, and properties of objects in the scene to create a photorealistic image.
In Inspire Studio you can animate an object or group and the camera. There are two methods of animation: key frame animation and path animation.
Customize the tools available in the product. Choose from Full, Studio, and Stamping Die Design.
Select a part and define the thickness and position.
Adjust the draw direction to minimize the depth and avoid negative drafts with the help of the Depth Box and Draft Analysis.
Define the symmetry boundary conditions.
Define one or more binders for the draw die. You can either assign an existing surface as a binder or create a flat from a new surface.
Create one or more surfaces that extend from the part to the binder, to aid in stretching and forming.
Trim the binder and add a round to finalize the draw die. Create a matching die using Offset.
Export selected objects to a common folder used to exchange data with other Altair products. For example, you can export a die design from Inspire Studio to Inspire Form to perform a stamping simulation.
You can use C++ and Python to add custom operations and file formats.
Learn keyboard shortcuts and mouse controls for common operations.
