ANSYS DesignXplorer
The ANSYS DesignXplorer solution works from within the ANSYS Workbench interface to perform Design of Experiments (DOE) analyses of any ANSYS Workbench simulation, including those with CAD parameters. Although it requires more analyses to be performed and is typically slower than Variational Technology, which is now also a part of ANSYS DesignXplorer, DOE is not limited in the types of analyses that can be used with it. In fact, ANSYS DesignXplorer software can be used with ANSYS® Parametric Design LanguageTM (APDL)-based files to perform DOE on existing or new ANSYS analyses. ANSYS DesignXplorer allows you to perform optimization and Design for Six Sigma with any application or sequence of applications, including in-house codes, by using the third-party plug-in.
Design of Experiments
ANSYS DesignXplorer has a powerful suite of DOE tools. Automatic Design Points can be generated two ways, Central Composite Design (CCD) or Optimal Space-Filling. CCD provides a traditional DOE sampling set, while Optimal Space-Filling’s objective is to gain the maximum insight with the fewest number of points. After sampling, ANSYS DesignXplorer provides four different meta-models to represent the simulations responses; Full Second-Order Polynomial, Kriging, Non-Parametric Regression and Neural Network. Kriging has two variants, pure Kriging and Radial Basis Function. These meta-models can accurately represent highly nonlinear responses. Once you have the simulation’s responses characterized, ANSYS DesignXplorer supplies three different types of optimization algorithms

Everyday your company faces local and international competition. To stay on top, you must increase the added value of your products and reduce your design and manufacturing costs. The design of experiments is a fast and efficient tool to reach those goals.
Optimum Design of Experiments is based on the Taguchi method, a well-known design of experiments technique. It allows you to solve rapidly design problems or improve the efficiency of processes.
With this software, you will be able to:
* reduce the time to launch products on the market ;
* eliminate the expensive trials and errors method ("one factor at a time") ;
* identify in a faster way the main causes affecting the quality of your products and the productivity of your processes ;
* gather significant information allowing a better control of your products and processes .

eQuote is an automated cost estimation and quotation system for sheet metal parts. It offers simplicity and unprecedented ease-of-use, while utilising an advanced manufacturing operations modeling engine to produce reliable and consistent results.
eQuote is fully integrated within Radan and is available as an optional module to augment any of our systems. It can be used to generate estimates of any sheet metal part regardless of origin, making it as easy to cost imported parts as one modeled and unfolded in Radan 3D.
Every manufacturing organisation is different and works in a different way. eQuote is designed to accommodate your unique setup by enabling complete configuration of all material and operation costs. Out of the box, example operations are provided within eQuote to support a complete range of sheet metal manufacturing operations such as punching, laser cutting and folding, but you can create additional operations of your own to suit your needs.
eQuote enables overheads to be modelled and attributed to parts in a variety of ways and also allows additional operations such as painting, deburring or welding to be added.

In recent years reverse engineering has been seen as a necessary yet time consuming engineering process, invariably requiring highly skilled resources. This is no longer the case as CopyCAD is quick, simple and interactive, offering even casual users the power to quickly solve engineering problems, from closing the loop on development cycles with copy milling, to feeding free form organic surfaces into the front end of the design project. By embracing the potential of scanned point cloud data, CopyCAD offers solutions constrained only by the imagination of the user.
CopyCAD is a complete point data manipulation and transformation solution, enabling engineers to bridge quickly and accurately the gap between the physical and digital world. CopyCAD does not constrain a user to the traditional definitions of reverse engineering.
Instead, CopyCAD gives the user total control over a point cloud data set, and offers a complete set of solution paths to the user.
