AES Moldes Purchases Moldflow Plastics Advisers Software

Moldflow Corporation (NASDAQ:MFLO), the leading global provider of
design analysis solutions for the plastics injection molding industry,
today announced that AES Moldes Lda., a growing mold tooling and
engineering solutions provider based in Marinha Grande, Portugal,
recently invested in Moldflow Plastics Advisers(R) (MPA(R)) products.
The investment allows AES to expand their service offerings to include
mold validation through the use of simulation and adds to their
experience in mold design engineering and injection molding
processing. MPA products allow Moldflow customers to predict and avoid
injection molding manufacturing problems in the earliest stages of
product development, when the cost of change is lowest and the impact
on manufacturability is highest.

AES purchased 3 MPA modules - Mold Adviser, Performance Adviser
and the Cooling Circuit Adviser - which together will allow AES to
validate and optimize part geometry, make mold design decisions such
as to determine the best injection locations, analyze mold filling
characteristics to predict potential problems and evaluate alternative
solutions, as well as design and optimize mold cooling circuits.

Jocelyne Marinaro, Moldflow's Sales Director for Western Europe
explains, "We view AES Moldes' investment in Moldflow as a beneficial
move for both companies. AES can now predict and solve potential
manufacturing problems early in product development, thereby saving
their customers considerable time and money." She continued, "For
Moldflow, it further validates our position as the leading provider of
injection molding simulation software in a growing region for us, and
we look forward to supporting AES Moldes."

M. Rui Marques, President of AES Moldes, explains, "With MPA, we
can combine our experience and knowledge of tool building with the
verification capability of Moldflow." He continued, "Ultimately, our
customers will be able to better understand the tooling and injection
molding process before the mold is built and we will be able to
minimize the qualification time and improve product quality."
