- What is Inspire Extrude Polymer?
  Inspire Extrude Polymer offers an analysis tool for virtual testing, validation, correction and optimization of extrusion die designs.
- FAQs
  Find answers to Frequently Asked Questions from our users.
- Extrusion Analysis
  Setup and perform an Extrusion analysis.
- Tool Deflection Analysis
  Setup and perform a Tool Deflection analysis.
- Calibration Analysis
  Setup and perform a Calibration analysis.
  - Calibration Analysis Overview
    A quick overview of the calibration analysis procedure.
  - Orienting the Model
    Use the Orient tool to set the orientation of the profile.
  - Creating the Profile Solid
    Use the Profiles tool to create the profile solid by extruding the exit surface of the existing profile part.
  - Selecting Materials
    Use the Materials tool to select materials for the analysis.
  - Creating Inlet Boundary Conditions
    Specify conditions at the surface where the polymer enters the domain.
  - Selecting the Insert Part
    If the extrusion has a metal insert, that condition is applied using insert parts. Inserts are modeled using BCs (the interface condition between insert and the polymer).
  - Designating the Calibration Die
    Use the Calibrator tool to designate a calibration die and specify its coolant properties.
  - Designating Coolant Channels
    Use the Coolant tool to select coolant channel faces.
  - Performing Job Analysis
    Use the Analysis tool to submit the job for analysis, inspect the job status, perform post-processing and review job history.
    - Run Options: Local vs. Remote
      Choose whether to run jobs locally or on a remote job server.
      - Run a Job Manually
        Manually copy a prepared model file and queue it on a remote jobs server.
      - Add a Remote Job Server
        Add and configure an Altair PBS server to run jobs remotely.
      - Add a Remote Service Using HyperXtrude Job Manager
        Submit extrusion simulation on local or remote machines.
    - Submitting a Job
      Define and run an analyis using the Run Analysis tool.
    - Post-Processing
      Use the Show Analysis Results tool to view the results of an analysis in the Analysis Explorer. View and animate results, add callouts, and compare results from different runs.
    - Run Status
      View the status of the current run, as well runs for the current model that have not yet been viewed. To see all past runs, you need to view the run history.
    - Run History
      View, sort, open, and delete past runs for the current and previous models.
