ALGOR Releases DesignCheck Simulation Tool for Pro/E
PITTSBURGH,
PA, June 4, 2008 - ALGOR, Inc., a leading provider of design, analysis and
simulation software, announced the availability of ALGOR DesignCheck – a
first-pass, fully integrated simulation tool for users of Pro/ENGINEER, the
integrated 3D CAD/CAM/CAE solution from Parametric Technology Corporation
(PTC) of Needham, Massachusetts. Expanding upon the existing technology
partnership between ALGOR and PTC, ALGOR DesignCheck is free, time-limited
finite element analysis (FEA) software that allows engineers and designers
to perform linear static stress analysis of single-part CAD models. With
ALGOR DesignCheck, Pro/ENGINEER users can virtually test the behavior of
product designs, speed up time to market and make better, safer products at
a lower cost.

ALGOR software's easy-to-use single user interface, FEMPRO, provides
direct CAD/CAE data exchange and full associativity with most CAD solid
modelers, including Pro/ENGINEER. This allows engineers to simply choose the
analysis tools they need, giving them access to ALGOR's wide range of
simulation capabilities including: static stress and Mechanical Event
Simulation (MES) with linear and nonlinear material models; linear dynamics;
fatigue; CFD including steady-state and transient heat transfer, steady and
unsteady fluid flow and mass transfer; electrostatics; full multiphysics;
and piping.
"ALGOR DesignCheck allows Pro/ENGINEER users to perform valuable,
production-quality work and experience the benefits of incorporating FEA
into the design process," said Bob Williams, ALGOR Product Manager. "After
getting started with ALGOR DesignCheck, Pro/ENGINEER users can easily
upgrade their ALGOR license to include additional analysis tools and support
for assemblies. After upgrading, they will enjoy all the same features they
have used with ALGOR DesignCheck including the same easy-to-use interface so
they don't need to learn a new interface or process in order to take
advantage of a broader range of analysis types."
"PTC's Partner Advantage Program is designed to create business
opportunities and revenue growth for both companies while providing optimal
solutions for customers," said Andy Barlow, senior director of business
development, PTC. "With the availability of ALGOR DesignCheck, ALGOR
continues to provide complementary solutions to our product development
system – enabling Pro/ENGINEER users to increase their productivity."
