Five ANSYS Simulation Products Certified for Autodesk Inventor 2010

By DE Editors

ANSYS, Inc. has announced that five of its products are now Inventor-certified for 32- and 64-bit Inventor 2010 software from Autodesk, Inc. This certification is reserved for partner solutions reviewed by Autodesk that have demonstrated that the integration is reliable and effective.

“These certifications have been made possible because of the open architecture designed into the ANSYS Workbench environment and our continued commitment to develop and maintain state-of-the-art interoperability with leading design systems,” said Dipankar Choudhury, vice president of corporate product strategy and planning. “Tightly integrating ANSYS Workbench with Inventor enables our mutual customers to rapidly optimize products and processes, speeding design and development times and reducing costs. Such optimization is a critical part of Simulation Driven Product Development, in which modeling and simulation are used to drive new solutions rather than to merely verify existing ones.”

ANSYS products certified for use with Autodesk Inventor 2010 now include ANSYS DesignSpace, ANSYS Mechanical, ANSYS Multiphysics, ANSYS CFX, and ANSYS DesignXplorer. The combination of these products with Autodesk Inventor enables upfront simulation, efficient evaluation of alternative designs, and iterative modification of designs for products, according to ANSYS.
