Magnaghi selects simulation software from Altair
Altair Engineering has announced that Italy-based aerospace supplier Magnaghi Aeronautica has chosen the Hyperworks simulation platform to develop and optimise its landing gear systems.
The company designs, develops and manufactures landing gears, hydraulic components and fuel tanks for the aircraft industry.
Costantino Russo, chief deputy within the technical department of Magnaghi Aeronautica, said: 'We expect remarkable time savings through faster and more automated development processes and I think that Optistruct will help us to further reduce both the weight and shapes of our components.
'Particularly, I like the flexibility of the product family, its open architecture and its automated meshing capabilities.' Magnaghi Aeronautica will initially deploy Hypermesh, the suite's finite element pre-processor, and the Optistruct structural optimisation technology.
Following the initial deployment and training phase, Magnaghi Aeronautica plans to leverage Altair's unit-based software licensing model to explore the suite's 25-plus software titles, including its finite element solvers and multi-body dynamics solutions.
