Process Integration

The last three decades have seen the emergence of hundreds of computer-aided engineering and design tools. Although the new technology has revolutionised the manufacturing industry, it also has increased the complexity of the design process.

In a typical aerospace firm, for example, the product development process may include two computer-aided design systems, a finite element modelling tool, a library of in-house materials, three commercial solvers, two homegrown solvers, and so on. The same company may have teams of engineers (structural, thermal, composite, manufacturing), all working with their own tool sets independently.

In such a scenario, Process Integration helps to:

• Identify bottlenecks in a complex information flow process;
• Integrate multiple tools running on varied platforms;
• Train new employees on how to use new simulation tools;
• Customise simulation processes and software tools to meet your exact needs;
• Provide engineering data management, process analysis and audit services for any company size.
