Simulation & Generative Design
Accelerate innovation with generative design and empower designers with easy-to-use simulation tools
Empower designers and engineers with Simulation
In today’s competitive market, engineers and designers constantly face new challenges within the industry, including reducing costs, decreasing weight and developing innovative product designs faster. As a consequence, companies are now looking to incorporate some form of digital prototyping to help reduce design-to-market lead times.
For your company to remain competitive today and in the future, you need to empower designers and engineers with easy-to-use simulation tools that will help you make better and informed decisions early on.
Symetri has a dedicated team of highly skilled engineers who can provide problem-solving services for most types of mechanical problems: from design and stress analysis of aeronautical equipment to heavy mining machines in Finite Element Analysis (FEA), and from the optimisation of cleanrooms for the pharmaceutical industry to cooling of defence-critical equipment and huge transformers in CFD.
You can rely on Symetri with Simulation, FEA and CFD of:
Pressure drop in valves
Optimise design, predict pressure drop and avoid cavitation and erosion
Fatigue of welds
Predict the fatigue life of your product
Stress analysis
Easy-to-use tools
Buckling analysis
Check the structural integrity with respect to buckling
Drop test
Perform a virtual drop test for any structure
Electronics cooling
See the invisible and maximise product performance
Cleanroom
Design without recirculating air
Vibration & Modal dynamics
Perform virtual vibrational tests within the CAD environment.
Indoor air comfort
Simulate air quality very early on in the design stage
Flow of moving liquid
Simulate liquid and solid interaction
Simulation for marketing
Visualise and market your products earlier
Accelerate innovation with generative design
Generative design can drastically reduce design and development times by allowing the designer and engineers to explore a multitude of design scenarios in a short space of time that would otherwise be impossible mainly due to cost and time.
Benefits of generative design include:
Light weighting – Minimise mass and material use while maintaining high-performance standards and engineering constraints.
Performance improvements – Use generative design to help improve and optimise product durability and eliminate areas of weakness.
Part consolidation – Consolidate multiple components into solid parts to maximise the potential of additive manufacturing.
Services that can help you in the simulation and design phases:
