Sustainable Packaging Development - driven by MODSIM

Sustainability is one of the major challenges for CPG-R companies. CPG-R companies have sustainability targets in place to reduce their carbon footprint, where light weighting, more recycled instead of virgin plastics and alternative materials play an important role for the design of more eco-friendly packaging. More agile development processes are necessary to develop the best package in a short timeframe, with a massive use of simulation for virtual instead of physical testing, to be able to quickly validate designs, evaluate material alternatives, reduce the weight and run trade-off studies.
All plastic bottles from any producer need to match similar types of requirements. Top load, squeeze, capping, opening of the lid, and drop test are probably the most relevant scenarios to validate bottle performance in an early design stage.
SIMULIA on 3DEXPERIENCE platform with Abaqus solver technology help to replace time consuming physical prototypes by much faster simulations. On top of that, there is a unique toolset to capture and re-use simulation experts know-how and create easy-to-use web UI’s to execute complex simulation even from a cell phone. Now, complex simulations can be used directly by designers or packaging managers, who can quickly execute their highly repetitive day-to-day tasks like the above mentioned scenarios.
In the webinar, we explain the underlying MODSIM technology and show some typical scenarios like lid opening, cap application/removal and bottle drop as well as bottle lightweighing. Customers using this technology were able to reduce the weight of many different bottle types by typically 10-15% within short timeframe, fulfilling all requirements.
