Case Study: Embraer achieves 3X faster aircraft tooling design with Cadence MSC Apex

Embraer speeds aircraft tooling design 3x with Cadence

Embraer, a global aerospace company, faced significant challenges in its tooling engineering process. Their engineers were using overly complex and time-consuming analysis software to design the tooling structures for manufacturing aircraft components. This inefficiency, provided by their previous CAE software, limited design iterations and often resulted in overly conservative, heavier designs. They needed a streamlined solution to improve modeling and meshing for structural and thermal analysis.

Cadence addressed this challenge by implementing its MSC Apex Unified Structural Simulation Environment. The solution's advanced hexahedral meshing capability and unified environment for analysis allowed Embraer's engineers to complete their work three times faster. This resulted in higher quality designs, more efficient parts, and the ability to deliver more results with the same engineering team, all without compromising on safety or ergonomics.
