Case Study: Optisys accelerates RF antenna design and time to market with Rescale

The Agility of Rescale Big Compute Enables RF Antenna Design Startup to Disrupt Market

Optisys, a Utah-based RF antenna design company specializing in 3D-printed metal antennas and RF components for military and commercial applications, needed a way to run demanding simulation workflows without investing in expensive local HPC hardware or building out an internal IT infrastructure. The team wanted on-demand access to simulation resources from multiple locations while supporting ANSYS electromagnetics and mechanical design work, including ITAR-sensitive projects.

With Rescale’s cloud HPC platform and license hosting, Optisys moved its ANSYS HFSS and ANSYS Mechanical simulations to the cloud, enabling faster optimizations, parallel projects, and scalable compute without upfront hardware CAPEX. Rescale helped Optisys cut RF design cycles from months to weeks, achieve a 3–4x speedup on most simulations, and run large models in about 10 minutes instead of hours or failed local runs, improving agility, productivity, and time to market.
