Add in for vacuum forming tools

[tinten]

I have a friend who claim that there is a module available for Pro/E which helps you in the design of tools for vacuum forming of plastic. My friend cannot remember what it is called and I have not found anything while browsing on internet either. Does anyone on this forum know about it?
The tool is supposed to have these features among others:
<ul>[*]It will warn you if there is a risk that the thickness of the plastic can become too thin.[*]It will warn you if there are areas on the tool which can become too cold.[/list]
Thanks in advance!
