Even without physical data, the simulation can still be useful for comparing the design, material, and process. What happens if you change the material, processing conditions, testing conditions, or environmental variables? Once that trust is established, you can also gain confidence that the design, process, and material for your product will perform as intended.

But as carmakers juggle new materials to find the right balance of comfort and cost, it becomes more difficult to maintain color consistency. The judicious use of color masterbatch, additives to provide texture to a part, and other color and additive formulations enable manufacturers to realize innovative color matching even as they incorporate new materials into the mix. But beware: Matching colors on disparate materials, such as textiles and molded polymers, is not an easy task.
