Mechanical designers need to predict product performance both with confidence and without building multiple physical prototypes. Autodesk® Simulation software provides a range of mechanical simulation tools that enable designers and engineers to bring product performance knowledge into early stages of the design cycle—helping to improve collaboration, design better and safer products, save time, and reduce manufacturing costs.
Validate. Predict. Optimize.
Autodesk simulation allows Mechanical designers to further validate and optimize designs with a broad range of enhanced mechanical simulation tools. You can download the free 30 day trial below:
Learn how to use simulation to enhance your Digital Prototyping workflow. This webinar will provide an introduction to Autodesk Simulation software.
Necessary design changes become more apparent when a product's real-world environment is fully simulated, but computationally intensive analyses can be time and resource intensive. Fast solvers in Autodesk Simulation software utilize the power of all available computing resources to perform parallel and distributed processing, allowing designers and engineers to study more realistic digital prototypes in a practical amount of time.
Manufacturers often create and share designs in multiple CAD software tools, making it difficult to integrate engineering simulation tools into an existing design process without requiring significant and costly changes. No matter the CAD software being used by your design team, simulation is becoming more and more important as physical prototypes are too costly and time consuming. Autodesk Simulation software supports efficient workflows in today's multi-CAD environment by providing direct geometry exchange and full associativity with Inventor, Pro/ENGINEER, SolidWorks, and other software.
Real-world product behavior is often the result of multiple physical effects interacting simultaneously. Advanced simulation setup is made easier through the use of standard engineering terminology, visual process guidance, and user-friendly tools and wizards that automate the transfer of simulation results between multiple analyses—focusing designers and engineers on product performance, not advanced numerical or simulation methods.
