MSC.Software Corp. , a global provider of enterprise simulation solutions including simulation software and services, recently announced that ADVICS Co., LTD., a leading supplier of automotive brake systems and components, has purchased MSC SimDesigner Enterprise for deployment in their CATIA(R) V5 CAD environments.
ADVICS is currently using CATIA V5 as part of highly-efficient product development program to promote digital engineering. To accelerate product development cycle, the company will now deploy MSC.Software’s SimDesigner Enterprise for CATIA V5 which features a number of designer-friendly tools enabling earlier validation and multidiscipline simulation workbenches in one package, including an embedded Nonlinear workbench, Linear workbench, Thermal workbench and Enterprise Gateways for MSC Nastran and MSC Marc.
With this global implementation of SimDesigner Enterprise, ADVICS will be able to execute simulations at the earliest stages of design, improving the efficiency of each project and speeding time-to-market.
“Our company’s goal is to contribute to the creation of safer and more comfortable automobiles,” said Hirohiko Yoshida, manager of the design administration section, technical administration department at ADVICS Co. “This goal requires us to continuously advance the power of brake-system development-on a global scale. MSC.Software’s products will allow us to accelerate our development while continuously improving the quality and functionality of MSC’s products.”
MSC.Software’s SimDesigner Enterprise for CATIA V5 is a CAD-embedded simulation suite that features enterprise collaboration and centralized data management. Providing an intuitive, CAD-integrated method for design engineers and engineering teams to perform repeatable, fully documented simulation studies earlier in the design process, SimDesigner Enterprise delivers the ability for product teams across the extended enterprise to create and collaborate on designs and performance simulations in one powerful application.
Fully integrated within the CAD process, SimDesigner Enterprise speeds innovation, reduces development costs, improves product quality, enables better collaboration, and improves both productivity as well as consistency. With SimDesigner Enterprise for CATIA V5, designers and teams can easily use MSC.Software’s industry-leading solver products in a Dassault Systemes CATIA V5 environment, delivering a feature-rich suite of powerful tools for accurate analysis and the ability to manage, control and reuse simulation data on an enterprise-wide, global scale.
