Keysight Adds Assembly Simulation to Portfolio

Keysight Technologies, Inc. unveils Keysight Assembly, a new virtual process simulation solution designed to help manufacturers identify assembly issues earlier in development, the company reports.

Developed in collaboration with automotive OEM partners, Keysight Assembly enables engineers to replicate shop-floor processes, including part positioning, clamping, and joining, through guided workflows and templates that require no specialized finite element modeling (FEM) skills. Teams gain visibility into distortion and dimensional risks much earlier than physical prototyping, according to Keysight.

Keysight Assembly integrates with the company's existing stamping simulation software, allowing engineers to carry stamped-part data from forming through assembly and validate outcomes against pre-production scan data. This connects separate stages of manufacturing development into a single workflow.

“Engineers know the frustration of discovering distortion only after parts are on the shop floor," says Mathilde Chabin, director of Product Management for Virtual Manufacturing, Keysight. "Traditional tools stop at part-level analysis and don't reflect how assemblies are actually built. Keysight Assembly simulates real production workflows, so teams can see process sensitivity early, when changes are easy and inexpensive.”
