SUMMARY
ANSYS is the WW leading simulation software company. Engineering simulation has become a key area of product development. It is recognized as instrumental in the digital transformation of industries: simulation and analysis tools are key technologies to accelerate design development and reduce the use of physical prototypes. With a connected product (IoT), simulation provides value through the product life cycle from requirements, design, testing, manufacturing, commissioning, operations and maintenance.
Material costs have become critical contribution to the overall product development cost ; with factor of safety margins going down and product complexity going up, the role of material development is becoming even more important than before; Upcoming technology disruptions such as Autonomous-electric vehicles are pushing eco-systems to be aware of material type (for example reduce rare earth material content), usage, cost etc. (within the product, and product interfacing with the surroundings) Thus, material accuracy, traceability and reliable materials information to make smart materials choices and to ensure simulation accuracy is becoming vital. ANSYS’ recent acquisition of Granta technologies is to help customers manage enterprise material intelligence and information through product life cycle from CAD to manufacturing to services/operations. These new technologies are to help customers manage IP, security through access and version control, interconnect with other enterprise systems such as CAD/PLM, MES and CAE; Knowledge and data management of material, material characterization, supply chain integration, ultimately bringing down material development and introduction cost while improving design efficiency.
