ESI Group's Welding simulation software provides solutions to everyday issues faced by designers, process planners, and manufacturing practitioners. It can be used at any stage of product and process development. Our offer includes SYSWELD – the simulation software used to simulate the welding physics for the local model – and PAM-ASSEMBLY – the simulation solution to perform distortion engineering on large and complex structures in the shortest time possible.
The Welding Simulation Solution helps you to design welded assemblies and fabrication processes in order to minimize or control distortion through simulation. Consequently, you can significantly reduce fabrication costs. For distortion control, fabrication design via modeling can:

•  Eliminate the need for expensive distortion corrections
• Reduce machining requirements
• Minimize capital equipment cost
• Improve quality
• Permit pre-machining concepts to be used
  

Controlling residual stress can significantly enhance the structure’s service life. With residual stress control via modeling you can:

• Reduce weight
• Maximize fatigue performance
• Lead to quality enhancements
• Minimize costly service problems
  

Using the Welding Simulation Solution, a drastic minimization of physical prototypes, leading to a high return on investment!
