SolidWorks Simulation - Benefits for Automotive and Transporation Industry


SolidWorks Simulation:  Easy to Use Validation for  Automotive Suppliers

Ranging from Simple Static Stress/ Stiffness analysis to tri-axial vibration shaker test to non-linear elastomeric applications, SolidWorks Simulation enables designers to perform Finite Element Analysis within the framework of 3D CAD.  With primary goals of Ease-of -Use and Empowering Designers to perform Up-front Engineering, SolidWorks Simulation has found  very high acceptance among automotive engineers.

5 Reasons Why Automotive Suppliers Invest in SolidWorks Simulation

SolidWorks Simulation has been adopted by the Automotive Community for many reasons.  Compelling among them are:
  • Ease of Use
  • CAD Integrated Design Validation with Optimization for Value Engineering
  • Proven multi-domain capabilities
  • Lowest Total Cost of Ownership
  • Assured support from EGS India - Authorised Reseller for SolidWorks Simulation in India since 1997
