Adams Description
Adams assists engineers in understanding the dynamics of moving parts and how they are distributed within mechanical systems. Often, product manufacturers don't understand the true performance of a system until late in the design process. While mechanical, electrical, and other subsystems can be validated against the specific requirements of the systems engineering process within that process, full-system validation and testing occurs late in the design process. This leads to rework and costly design changes. Adams is the most widely used Multibody Dynamics (MBD), which improves engineering efficiency and lowers product development costs. It also allows for early system-level validation. Engineers can manage and evaluate the complex interactions between disciplines, including motion, structures, and actuation, to optimize product designs for safety, performance, and comfort.

MapleSim
MapleSim can be used to create digital twins for virtual commissioning and system-level models for complex engineering designs projects. It is an advanced modeling tool that allows you to reduce development time, lower costs, diagnose real-world performance issues, and reduce development time. You can eliminate vibrations using better control code and not hardware upgrades. With detailed simulation results, diagnose root-cause performance issues. Validate new designs before they are physically prototyped. MapleSim is an advanced system-level simulation and modeling tool that uses modern techniques to significantly reduce model development time, provide more insight into system behavior and produce high-fidelity simulations.

DC-E DigitalClone for Engineering
DigitalClone®, for Engineering is the only software that integrates multiple scales of analysis into a single package. It is the world's best gearbox reliability prediction tool. DC-E, in addition to the modeling and analysis capabilities at the level of the gearbox and the gear/bearing, is the only software that models fatigue life using detailed, physics-based models (US Patent 10474772B2).
DC-E allows the construction of a digital twin of a gearbox. This includes all stages of the asset's lifecycle, from design and manufacturing optimization to supplier selection to failure root cause analysis to condition based maintenance and prognostics. This computational environment reduces the time and cost of bringing new designs to market and maintaining them over time.

Ansys Motor-CAD
Ansys MotorCAD is a dedicated tool for electric machine design. It allows you to quickly simulate multiphysics across the entire torque-speed operating range. Motor-CAD allows engineers to evaluate motor topologies across the entire operating range. This allows them to create designs that are optimized for size, efficiency, and performance. Motor-CAD software's four modules, Emag, Therm Lab, Mech, allow multiphysics calculations to be performed quickly, iteratively, and users can move from concept to final design in a shorter time. Motor-CAD users can explore more motor topologies and fully evaluate the impact of advanced loss effects during the initial stages of an electrical mechanical design with Motor-CAD's streamlined data input process. This release features powerful new features for design optimization and multi-physics analysis, as well as system modeling for electric motors. Multiphysics simulations are fast across the entire torque-speed range.
