Simulation software shortens development time<\/h2>\n
The costs incurred by Gerresheimer<\/a> The innovative simulation software used by the company adjusts the production parameters on the basis of CFD (computational fluid dynamics). This enables Potential for improvement identified at an early stage<\/strong> and the development time can be shortened.<\/p> \u201eThe production of the glass container begins with the design of the mould. The more precisely the mould is designed and manufactured, the better its quality in terms of glass distribution, visual appearance, strength and weight.\u201c Philipp Amrhein,<\/strong> Manager New Product Development & Mould Design at Gerresheimer<\/a> in Lohr<\/p><\/blockquote>\n The weight of bottles, flacons and jars plays a particularly important role in energy consumption and therefore in both production and transport logistics. Taking into account all chemical and physical glass parameters optimising the shaping production process and the design of the moulds with the help of digital computer simulation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The mould cooling system is also optimally designed for the respective process using CFD simulation. This leads to Stress reduction in the glass container<\/strong> and thus to an effectively improved quality of the entire production process, for example by avoiding high reject rates<\/p>![\"\"](\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03.png\")
