Ludovic v7.0 : always closer to the twin screw extrusion process

Moving closer from the industrial process is a real motivation for our team, as our main target remains to answer the user's needs. As the twin screw process become more and more versatile, more and more technic and more and more focused on the performance : simulation has to do so.

Ludovic V7.0

The new developments of Ludovic V7.0

Lots of developments have been integrated into this newest version of THE software dedicated to corotating twin screw extruders. The Ludovic V7.0 roadmap is mainly driven by all of our users who share their needs or ideas for still improving the model. Thus, the different upgrades are tackling different issues : the user-friendly environment, the extruder design capability and the materials issues.

A refreshed interface

The Ludovic environment is a strength of the software. As it allows users to quickly design machines and screw profiles, the interface had to become more intuivite. For reaching this target, different improvements have been designed :

  • Totally refreshed interface
  • New Dashboard for more readability on the simulation key facts
  • Simulation batch mode revisited : for designing a batch of simulations to be afterward computed

Going further into the process complexity

The user-friendly interface is not the only concern for a modeling software. It has to be complete enough for adressing all the possible issues and configurations handled by the industrials. That is the reason why the model of the software and the features have been pushed again further.

Among the most noticable new integrations :

  • Integration of the new Turbine Mixing Elements (TME)
  • Integration of Blister/Ring elements
  • New Standard Database of simulations : integrating realistic configurations (compounds, masterbatches, agro...)
  • Adding the Velocity results at the screw head

All the new integrated developments are listed on our eSupport site

Soon released

The last tests of this brand new version are now currently performed. Thus, the Ludovic V7.0 should be ready for May, 2020.

All the users being under active maintenance will received the link for downloading the Ludovic V7.0 version.

Main targets of numerical simulation

Numerical simulation aims to get closer from the industrial process in order to bring much more accuracy in the results and in comfort in use.

Ludovic at the Leistritz Academy

During the Leistriz Pharma extrusion Academy, SC-Consultants presents the Ludovic software, with a special pharma version. The Leistritz Academy takes place in Nurnberg on March 30-31, 2017

Hot Melt Extrusion applications

 

SC-Consultants introduces new results in Ludovic for meeting the pharma industry specific requirements. With the Pharma Edition, the Ludovic software holds now dedicated results.

 Three Tec Logo ThermoFisher Logo

General overview : a TSC what for?

This training is aimed at providing a concrete answer to the various HME industrial issues, within the numerical simulation during two days.

  • Reminders about the extrusion mechanisms and hands on tutorials in using the Ludovic software (day 1)
  • Issues related to measuring simulation-relevant material characteristics (day 2)

Who should attend the TSC

The Twin Screw Course targets process engineers and scientists who are involved in the Hot Melt Extrusion process and want to improve the process and the product quality.

What you will learn

During these days, attendees learn about :

  • Benefits of numerical simulation to optimize the process

  • Process mechanisms description and understanding

  • How to solve industrial HME cases with rules and tips

  • Plan, reduce the trials (and the API consumption)

The short-terms benefits

In terms of benefits, participating to the TSC allows to :

  • Gain experience on the global extrusion/HME mechanisms understanding

  • Learn about the most relevant parameters (material characterization)

  • Get reliable data from the simulations

  • Identify the key parameters of the extrusion process

  • Manage campaign trials and experiments plan

  • Save trials, materials, time and API
