Altair UK Announces High Profile Agenda for Engineering Design Seminar

Due to take place on 24th June at the National Motorcycle Museum in Solihull, the popular seminar last held in April 2006 will showcase some of the UK’s leading computer aided engineering (CAE) success stories. A selection of leading companies will present first hand how they have successfully integrated Altair’s HyperWorks CAE suite into their design process to dramatically improve their design productivity. Presenters include Airbus UK, Bombardier Transportation, Jaguar & Land Rover, Unilever and Corus. In addition SAIC Motor, UK Technical Centre Ltd will present a keynote address entitled:

“Delivering Successful Vehicle Design in Compressed Timescales”

Presenters will discuss the drivers leading them to switch from their incumbent pre and post-processing solutions over to the HyperWorks toolset in order to take advantage of increased design productivity enabling them to bring products to market faster than ever before. In addition, Altair UK’s own technical specialists will be on hand to answer any questions about the technology and will showcase its capabilities through live demonstrations.

“Establishing simulations of product behavior that drive improvements in the product design have never been more vital than they are today”, explains Maurice Linscott, Regional Director of Altair UK, “The demands to get the right product to market ahead of competitors, coupled with increasing legislation, and the drive for reduced ‘cost of ownership’ puts ever increasing pressure on OEMs and their supply chains. The excellent line up of leading industry speakers supporting this event are testament to how our products and their capabilities are enabling companies to address these demands”

This seminar follows Altair’s recent launch of HyperWorks 9, the latest version of the Enterprise CAE suite currently used by over 3,000 OEMs and tier suppliers worldwide.
