Case Study: Royal Enfield achieves lighter, safer motorcycle design with Dassault Systèmes SIMULIA

Royal Enfield

Royal Enfield, the world's oldest motorcycle brand in continuous production, faced the challenge of integrating modern performance, safety, and emissions technology into its classic-styled bikes without compromising their iconic heritage or increasing weight. To achieve this, they partnered with Dassault Systèmes and adopted its SIMULIA portfolio of simulation applications.

By implementing Dassault Systèmes' SIMULIA solutions, including Abaqus, fe-safe, Simpack, and Tosca, Royal Enfield engineers could virtually test and optimize components for durability, weight, and performance. This resulted in significant weight reduction, improved reliability, and a faster time to market. The simulation tools provided high confidence in designs, reduced physical prototyping needs, and enabled the development of a single global motorcycle platform adaptable to different international regulations and terrains.
