Case Study: Optimec Consultants automates FEA modeling and analysis with MSC SimXpert

Optimec Consultants Automates Modeling and Analysis with MSC SimXpert

An engineering services firm, Optimec Consultants, faced the challenge of automating the highly repetitive and error-prone process of building and analyzing large Finite Element Analysis (FEA) models for the machinery industry. To tackle this, they worked with MSC Software and leveraged the MSC SimXpert multidisciplinary simulation environment to develop automated templates.

The solution implemented using MSC SimXpert streamlined several key processes. Templates automated the creation of 2D properties, paper rolls for the pulp and paper industry, non-structural components, and the modification of shell thicknesses due to rust. This resulted in massive time savings, reducing certain tasks from hours to seconds and eliminating days of manual work, while also minimizing errors and providing easier verification of results for Optimec Consultants and their clients.
