Revolutionize your engineering process with multiphysics simulation

Reduce prototypes, accelerate product development and improve product performance with the Multiphysics suite.

Multiphysics is not a dream; it is a reality

The Multiphysics suite from Hexagon is a scalable portfolio of products that brings the power of cutting-edge, physics-based simulation technologies to solve real-world engineering problems.

Carrying a long tradition of technical expertise and industry knowledge, we bring the most advanced technologies to solve industrially relevant problems with pragmatic solutions such as vertical applications with built-in domain expertise. Customisation and automation provide access to a rich pool of solutions from 1D solvers to front-end geometry handling, CAD, and meshing technologies.

The suite has been designed for interoperability to ensure seamless integration with your existing systems and other Hexagon products, adopting open industry standards and enhancing them to fit industrial needs. With a modern user experience thanks to photorealistic effects and immersive interpretation (AR/VR), you can see your designs in real life, gathering valuable insight for making data-driven decisions.

Acoustic simulation for a quieter world

From headphones and speakers to electric vehicles and aircraft, sound and noise, acoustics are increasingly important to consumer experience. Hexagon’s acoustic simulation tools enable designers and engineers to understand the key parameters of the sounds we hear and design for optimum acoustic performance.
