SimData Manager added to software for simulation

This is to help analysts easily keep up with the constantly increasing number of simulation runs across all disciplines and the global collaboration of simulation activities along the supply chain.

Vice President of EMEA at Altair, Detlef Schneider, Senior said: "SimData Manager is an excellent addition to Altair’s software lineup. CAE data management is important to almost all of our customers, so being able to offer them this capability is a great asset. We look forward to growing this partnership and seeing how we can improve our customers’ experience in the future.”

The softwaretraces CAD geometries throughout the process to the final analysis reports and various simulation models and vice versa, making it so engineers are always aware of which computer-aided design (CAD) geometry was the base for their simulation models in order to easily select the related analysis results from the SDM system.

Head of Sales and Marketing at PDTec, Albrecht Pfaff said: "PDTec is excited to become a member of the Altair Partner Alliance.”

Pfaff added: “We see great opportunities for Altair’s customers to leverage the new partnership and get access to PDTec’ s SimData Manager via HyperWorks Units. Larger organisations are challenged by the size of CAE data and the extension of CAE into many disciplines. Global simulation teams want to share their analysis results and work on joint CAE projects. SimData Manager provides a central enterprise system to manage all CAE data globally.”

SimData Manager improves project efficiency and overall success by notifying analysts of any updates to the CAD models during simultaneous engineering processes, making it so they are able to decide if changes are necessary for the current simulation. HyperMesh, HyperView and HyperGraph have also been integrated with SimData Manager to make the process of accessing CAE data even more seamless for engineers already working in the HyperWorks environment.
