MSC.Software makes products that enable engineers to validate and optimize their designs using virtual prototypes. Customers in almost every part of manufacturing use our software to complement, and in some cases even replace the physical prototype “build and test” process that has traditionally been used in product design.
CAE Tools for building and testing virtual prototypes
MSC pioneered many of the technologies that are now relied upon by industry to analyze and predict stress and strain, vibration & dynamics, acoustics, and thermal analysis in our flagship product, MSC.Nastran. Over our rich history, MSC has developed or acquired many other well known CAE applications including Patran, Adams, Marc, Dytran, SimDesigner, SimManager, EASY5, Sinda, and Fluid Connection. We are committed to the continuing development of new CAE tools and technology in these products as well as in new products including MD Nastran, MD Adams, and SimXpert, that integrate the technologies from standalone CAE tools into unified multi-discipline solvers and user environments. These "next generation" products enable engineers to improve the reliability and accuracy of their virtual prototypes by including multi-physics and multi-discipline interactions.
Solutions for optimizing "virtual build and test" methods and processes
MSC also recognizes the need to scale the benefits of virtual prototyping and testing from pockets of experts to mainstream engineering and product development. We offer the only "simulation data management" (SDM) platform in the world that has been successfully deployed in industries including automotive, aerospace, shipbuilding, electronics, and more.
