ESI Group announces its participation at CastExpo, 16-19 April 2016 in Minneapolis, MN, USA. Sponsored by the American Foundry Society (AFS), CastExpo is the largest metal casting trade show in North America. ESI will showcase on booth 1915 its leading casting simulation software, ProCAST, which addresses a large number of casting processes for diverse metals and alloys. Developed over the past 25 years, ProCAST has helped foundries, big and small, improve cast part quality, reduce manufacturing defects, and lower scrap rates. ESI ProCAST is a versatile, precise and comprehensive casting simulation solution, enabling foundries to tackle easily both typical and complex casting issues. Using ProCAST, manufacturers quickly understand and fix casting defects caused by shrinkage, gas porosity, mis-runs, inclusions, and a variety of other defects linked to microstructure and mechanical evolution. Based on powerful Finite Element technology, ProCAST expands the scope of typical casting simulation to stress evaluation

SQS, a market leader in quality management and software testing for Product Life Cycle Management (PLM), has partnered with Siemens PLM to provide an innovative end to end testing solution for ten clients. Since 2015 SQS and Siemens have been supporting these North American and European firms in the Automotive, Aerospace, Hi-tech, Oil & Transport sectors, where the commercial engagement was either fixed price or output based.   Its ten years working with Siemens helped SQS to identify the newest product releases and, using the vast product knowledge of SQS’ SWAT team of PLM specialists (Subject Matter Experts) and functional experts, it was then able to create this new and innovative end to end testing solution, testing Siemens Teamcenter while new releases were still being developed.   This had the added unique advantage of allowing SQS to deliver a solution six to nine month ahead of competitors. SQS’ SWAT team designed the

Plastic Ingenuity, the national leader in innovative packaging solutions from proposal to finished product, is proud to debut a groundbreaking new technology to promote collaboration between manufacturers and real world shoppers. Perfect Shelf, a 3D experience solution from Dassault Systèmes, bridges the gap between retailers, consumers, and product design engineers. The digital modeling system creates highly realistic aisle views with shelves, fixtures, products, lighting, and even promotional materials. The tool creates the opportunity for specific, high quality design work, in addition to manufacturing and prototyping cost savings. A major factor in the consumer shopping experience around the world, product shelving quality plays a key role in brand awareness, sales margins, and overall product revenue. With a smart digital simulation, the very essential experience of a product’s performance in-store can be assessed and adjusted nimbly. The result is less cost with a better product, fewer errors, and ultimately a better experience

The companies intend to co-locate resources in Walldorf, Germany and Palo Alto, Calif. deepening their long-standing partnership and delivering a distinct blend of market-leading capabilities. In addition, the companies will showcase new solutions and thought leadership to clients in IBM, SAP innovation centers around the world. "The future of business strategy and business value will proceed from the foundational elements of this announcement -- cognitive, cloud and the design of consumer-quality experiences in every industry," said Bridget van Kralingen, senior

ASCON Group, the developer and integrator of high-performance CAD/AEC/PLM software systems, is pleased to announce the newest release of its architectural design system, Renga Architecture v2.3. This release adds color, works with table data, links to KOMPAS-3D, and many more useful functions. Until now, Renga Architecture displayed graphics exclusively in monochrome, but now it adds two new display modes, wireframe and color. Wireframe mode shows just the model's edges (lines without surfaces). Originally developed for Renga Structure, our upcoming building structures design system, wireframe display mode helps to see insides of buildings, and is especially useful when creating the new objects. The second new display mode, Color, visually differentiates objects. Object colors are set in the model by default. Tables is the new tool for creating forms, such as specifications, lists, and BOMs (bills of material). Data from spreadsheets can be copied into tables in Renga. After tables are placed in

Customers of ANSYS can now design their innovative electronic products faster and more cost-effectively thanks to the latest release of ANSYS® Savant™ and ANSYS® EMIT™ software.
