Cadence Teams Up With Dassault

Cadence Design Systems, Inc. and Dassault Systèmes announced at 3DEXPERIENCE World that they have extended their ongoing strategic partnership by integrating the artificial intelligence-driven Cadence OrCAD X and Allegro X with Dassault Systèmes’ extended 3DEXPERIENCE Works Portfolio, for SOLIDWORKS existing and future customers. This enables collaboration for continuous development across printed circuit board, 3D mechanical design and simulation.

The cloud-enabled integration offers joint customers a solution for next-generation product development, enabling a faster design turnaround time.

This new integration provides electrical and mechanical engineers ability to accelerate the mechatronics system development process while optimizing designs for performance, reliability, manufacturability, supply resilience, compliance and cost, companies report. The new integration offers a scalable experience to customers of different sizes, from startups to enterprises, the companies add.

“Every industry is experiencing exploding product complexity due to electrification, AI/ML, security, connectivity and sustainability requirements,” says Tom Beckley, senior vice president at Cadence. “Cadence is the leader in developing AI tools for advanced IC packaging and PCB design. With Dassault Systèmes’ powerful 3DEXPERIENCE platform, customers can now design using a best-in-class solution that enables collaboration across PCB and 3D mechanical design.”

“Today's experience economy, where the value of a product comes from its usage, drives exponential demand for connected evolutive electromechanical products. Companies are shifting to experience thinking in their product development processes. Our fast-developing partnership with Cadence empowers our customers to make this shift,” said Philippe Laufer, executive vice president Global Brands, Dassault Systèmes.
