ESI SYSWELD - Welding & Assembly Predictive Simulation
Welding & Assembly simulation minimizes the cost of manufacturing planning, try-out and fabrication validation and time to market. This allows our customers to spend the majority of their time creating new, innovative products.
Main Benefits
- Minimize prototyping costs
- Develop and optimize a welding plan in a short timeframe
- Keep welding distortions within allowable tolerances
- Control high stresses in the welding design
- Guarantee the highest quality welds

Distortion Control in Automotive Industry using Virtual Welding & Assembly
Benefiting from years of developments aimed at the automotive industry, SYSWELD enables the modeling of the full stamp-welding-assembly simulation chain for fast distortion engineering in the context of car body manufacturing.
- Design engineers can now control the dimensional inaccuracies of hot and cold joined assemblies by accounting for the mechanical load effects during successive assembly processes, and heat effects induced by welding.
- Engineers can virtually manufacture, assemble and test physically realistic virtual components, long before their hardware prototypes are manufactured.
- Automotive manufacturers and their suppliers can consequently reduce the cost and delays caused by manufacturing planning, try-out and process validation.

ESI SYSWELD - Heat Treatment (HT) Predictive Simulation
SYSWELD addresses heat treatment processes (Carburizing, Carbonitriding, and Quenching etc.) and considers all thermal, metallurgical and mechanical phenomena.
Main Benefits
- Avoid component distortion and high material hardness during or after HT
- Obtain correct material strength, toughness and hardness
- Ensure high wear resistance of the contacting surfaces
- Achieve the required distribution of residual stresses
