What's New

Make A Leap in Material-Led Eco-design

2022 R2 sees Ansys Granta’s products build on the data, tool, and integration offering to help engineers factor in material sustainability earlier in the design process – helping reduce product development time and make more sustainable material choices.

Users of Ansys Mechanical can use the new Ansys Material Calibration app available in Granta MI™ to generate accurate material models from experimental data, to help drive simulation accuracy with materials across the simulation team.

With material now exportable from any Ansys Granta product to any Ansys flagship solver and a supercharged version of Granta MI Pro, we’re making it easier to take the first step to achieving Material Intelligence.

Capabilities

From using the scalable Granta MI solution to manage and bring control to your in-house materials information.  Or, making smarter materials choices using Granta Selector. Our capabilities focus on the needs of Product, Manufacturing and Materials Engineering, Scientists, Simulation Analysts, Process Improvement, and IT:

  • Enabling digital transformation
  • Boosting simulation accuracy
  • Smarter materials choices
  • Fully integrated
  • Faster to market
  • Repeatable additive manufacturing
  • Ensure regulatory compliance
  • Visibility across the product value chain

Establishing a high-quality ‘gold source’ of enterprise-wide materials data is the foundation of digital transformation.

Improve simulation accuracy with access to an unrivalled catalog of materials property data.

Enable your materials experts to make trade-offs to save cost, weight and improve product quality.

Connect your materials data to leading CAD, CAE and PLM solutions, guaranteeing accuracy and consistency.

Design Engineers can reduce design iterations by making better materials decisions early in the conceptual phase.

Future-proof your AM processes by capturing critical property-process relationships.

From executives concerned with corporate liability to engineers making practical materials choices, manufacturing enterprises face restricted substances challenges at every level.

Identify and report on possible restricted substances in your product with the Ansys Granta MI Restricted Substances Module.

Key benefits:

  1. Avoid business risk due to restricted substance regulations (e.g. REACH)
  2. Consider compliance early in design, where change costs least and delivers the biggest impact.
  3. Prevent multi-million-dollar costs associated with expenses, delays or reputational damage.
  4. Base decisions on robust data about the materials and specifications that drive use of restricted substances.
  5. A partnership with Chemwatch to enable users with easy access to difficult to find substances data.

WHITE PAPERS

Ansys Material Intelligence
White Paper: Material Intelligence

The Business Case for Material Intelligence

If your organization makes or designs products, it uses materials. Information about these materials is vital, often with multi-million dollar impact. In other areas of product engineering, digital transformation is already highly embedded – for example, CAE, CAD and CAM are now ‘must haves’ for every manufacturing enterprise. Software technology to manage and effectively apply materials information had lagged behind – but this is changing, rapidly. In this white paper, we explore why this is, with materials information management increasingly established as a core engineering technology. Includes extensive case study and return on investment information.
