Software chosen to optimise aerospace
development
MT Aerospace will implement HyperWorks tools within the design and optimisation processes of its aerospace components.
MT Aerospace, a supplier of components and subsystems for the aerospace industry and a systems supplier for antennas and mechatronics, has chosen the Altair HyperWorks suite of software solutions to optimise its product development processes The company will implement HyperWorks tools within the design and optimisation processes of its advanced aerospace components and, in doing so, will frontload the development process

The HyperWorks suite and the OptiStruct design synthesis optimisation technology will be used to optimise existing cutting machines and to develop new 2D machines.
In addition, the company will use HyperMesh for pre and post-processing tasks, as well as to modify models for finite-element (FE) analysis.
"We have chosen HyperWorks, because optimisation is becoming a growing issue within our industry", said Dr Ulrich Clormann, Director of the Engineering Department at MT Aerospace.
"Besides simulating and testing the function of our components, HyperWorks will enable us to optimise their structure and shape before the final design".
"The HyperWorks suite offers us more functionality and higher productivity than the tools we have been using so far".
Altair HyperWorks is an integrated CAE framework containing best-in-class solutions for the complete virtual product development process.
HyperWorks not contains powerful FE and multi-body simulation solutions.
It also delivers an open, programmable platform that is easy to integrate into existing processes.
Altair OptiStruct is a highly advanced FE-based software for both structural analysis and design optimisation.
OptiStruct is used to design, evaluate and improve performance of mechanical structures.
Altair HyperMesh is a high-performance FE pre and post-processor for popular FE solvers.
The software enables engineers to analyse product design performance in a highly interactive and visual environment.
"MT Aerospace's decision to integrate HyperWorks into their product development process is clear evidence of the ongoing trend toward using HyperWorks tools within the aerospace industry", said Dr Detlef Schneider, Managing Director of Altair Engineering, Germany.
"More and more companies are re-evaluating the tools they are currently using, and have chosen to implement HyperWorks to update and improve their development processes".
"Using this advanced technology is rapidly becoming a critical element in remaining competitive in the marketplace".
