Digimat-MS
Increase your confidence in simulation by leveraging predictive multiscale techniques
Digimat-MS
Accurately predict parts performance accounting for manufacturing process
Digimat-MS is a comprehensive solution that takes into account the process-induced material microstructure in the finite element analysis of the component.
Elevate your designs into performance with Multiscale Simulations
By integrating manufacturing in the design cycle, Digimat-MS allows engineers to reduce the number of prototypes and bring products to market faster. The holistic solution spans from micro to macro, leveraging local microstructures induced by manufacturing to enrich CAE analysis and predict structural performances with unparalleled accuracy. The intuitive interface empowers engineers of all levels to swiftly design lightweight components with confidence, supporting their sustainable objectives.
Users can select from various manufacturing processes such as injection and compression moulding, draping, thermoforming or additive manufacturing, and experience a seamless workflow tailored for the considered application. To increase productivity, Digimat-MS interfaces with a variety of FEA solvers and provides dedicated fatigue and failure post-processing capabilities.
