Key features of Simcenter Inspire
Simcenter Inspire provides a comprehensive set of tools for design exploration, optimisation, and manufacturing simulation, ensuring engineers can create lighter, stronger, and more efficient products with confidence.
Geometry Creation
Create complex and precise geometries using a combination of traditional CAD techniques and implicit modelling. Users can quickly generate and modify parts, define structured/unstructured lattice structures, and streamline workflows without relying on external CAD software.
Manufacturing Simulation
Evaluate manufacturing feasibility early in the design phase by simulating real-world manufacturing processes, including:
✔ Metal casting – Predict defects such as shrinkage, porosity, and air entrapment.
✔ Metal forming – Optimise stamping and forming operations to reduce waste.
✔ Extrusion (polymer & metal) – Ensure material flow and profile accuracy.
✔ Injection moulding – Detect potential defects and enhance polymer processing.
✔ Polyfoam expansion – Simulate polyurethane foaming processes.
✔ Additive manufacturing – Predict part deformation and residual stress during 3D printing.
Topology Optimisation
Maximise material efficiency with AI-driven topology optimisation, ensuring parts are as lightweight and structurally sound as possible. Users can define load paths, constraints, and objectives to automatically generate optimised designs, reducing material usage while maintaining performance.
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
Run fast and accurate CFD simulations to analyse internal and external fluid flows, thermal effects, and turbulence. Engineers can evaluate airflow, cooling efficiency, and pressure distribution in real time to enhance product performance.
