Composites software eases design process
One of the most significant new features in fibreSIM 5.4 is its integration with MSC.Software's SimXpert finite element analysis (FEA) software.
With headquarters in Venegono, Italy, AleniaAermacchi turned to Vistagy to help automate its end-to-end product development process.
Using FiberSIM software, AleniaAermacchi engineers will generate detailed documentation early in the design phase, and efficiently share composites information and detail across the organisation from within one application.
AleniaAermacchi will use FiberSIM's zone-based design and new automated plybook capabilities to ensure products are designed and manufactured accurately, within specification, and meet the demanding deadlines of its current aerospace design projects.
"Vistagy has more than fifteen years of aerospace engineering expertise, and leading companies like AleniaAermacchi turn to us to help them innovate their aircraft designs and manufacture products that give them a competitive edge", said Steve Luby, President and CEO at Vistagy.
"AleniaAermacchi is an important partner that prides itself on adopting the very latest design technology for more efficient and cost-effective product development".
"We look forward to continuing our work with AleniaAermacchi to improve the efficiency of their design processes for composite parts on commercial airliners".
