DYNAFORM 5.7 Tutorial: Hood Inner Guide

1. The document provides a tutorial for using Dynaform software to model a hood inner part for stamping. It describes 14 steps for preparing the CAD model including importing geometry, meshing, defining symmetry, boundary fills for inner and outer surfaces, adding a binder, master profile and addendum. 2. The steps also include procedures for smoothing the addendum, mirroring it to both sides, generating the addendum surface, trimming the binder and unfolding flanges. 3. The tutorial aims to create a complete stamping model of the hood inner part for further analysis and simulation in Dynaform.
