Industrial valve producer, Milwaukee Valve has recently expanded their online CAD product configurator, enabling output to Autodesk® REVIT® building information modeling (BIM) format. Designed and built by CADENAS PARTsolutions, the sales configurator now meets the needs of a much broader customer base by offering one of the most popular design formats on the market. Milwaukee Valve is best known for their selection of more than 5,000 valve configurations for commercial, industrial and residential applications. Their online CAD file generator boasts hundreds of products in more than 150 native, neutral CAD and graphic formats. They are adding Autodesk® REVIT® to their CAD product configurator to meet high customer demand. “The evolution of our configurator has paralleled evolution of the demand,” says Geoff McLaughlin, Vice President of Technical Support at Milwaukee Valve. “Our customers used to be satisfied with 2D drawings. They were ecstatic when we began offering 3D models in native formats. Now,

ESI Group announces the launch of Visual-Environment 9.0.  ESI's multi-domain simulation platform hosts most of ESI's Virtual Prototyping solutions, and is open to third party technologies. ESI's platform enables industrial users to automate all their Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) processes from Computer-Aided Design (CAD), through pre- and post-processing, modeling, simulation and visualization, to reporting in any CAE domain; all in a unified environment. Connecting ESI solutions while supporting third party applications, Visual-Environment 9.0 is the obvious choice to support the simulation of the manufacture and assembly of existing and future products, and to enable concurrent engineering and optimization across multiple domains including Crash, Safety, NVH, Energy, Heat Treatment, Flow, Electromagnetics, CFD and more. It helps industrial organizations to maximize their use of CAE in order to achieve greater productivity in their engineering processes and supports their quest for innovation. "Visual-Environment's wide range of functionalities across different solvers, implemented for pre- and post-processing applications, turn this software solution into an

Algoryx Simulation AB, a provider of interactive physics simulation solutions, and SpaceClaim, provider of flexible and affordable 3D modeling software for engineers, today announced Dynamics for SpaceClaim, a new real-time multibody simulation module for SpaceClaim Engineer that brings interactive physics to the everyday work of engineers and designers. Dynamics for SpaceClaim by Algoryx brings 3D models to life with physics-based motion dynamics powered by Algoryx’ real-time physics engine, AgX Dynamics. Dynamics for SpaceClaim adds value to the entire design process, from conceptual studies to detailed mechanical analysis. Further, when used with Luxion KeyShot, the same simulations can also be used to produce high impact photo-realistic product videos for design reviews, sales and marketing. ”The market has never seen dynamics that can be built this easily and provide this much visual information regarding the physical performance of their work,” said Frank DeSimone, VP of software development for SpaceClaim.” Algoryx’s AgX physics engine provides outstanding

AVEVA today announced that JSC NIAEP – JSC Atomstroyexport (ASE), an engineering company in the Russian nuclear industry, has signed an agreement to use AVEVA’s engineering & design software. “Specialists of JSC NIAEP-ASE have created and are now successfully using the unique Multi-D technology that supports the whole lifecycle of a nuclear plant – from engineering & design phase to decommissioning. Moreover, we are sure that the experience and knowledge that we have gained over the years will be very useful both in the oil & gas sphere and in thermal power plants, where the plants are on a similar scale with nuclear power plants. Our goal is not only to diversify our specialty, but also to make the software technology we use more versatile and acquiring the AVEVA software is another step in this direction,” said Sergey P. Olontsev, Vice-President JSC NIAEP-ASE. “JSC NIAEP-ASE appreciates the capabilities of the AVEVA solutions
