Following Siemens’ acquisition of Altair Engineering Inc., a leading player in the field of CAE simulation, and its integration into the Digital Industries Software division, the names of established products are gradually being changed. For example, Altair SimSolid, mentioned below, will now be known as Simcenter SimSolid. Simsolid was one of the most valuable components of the acquisition, and Siemens is confident in its continued success.
At Advanced Engineering, we have been working with Simsolid and providing customer support for several years now, and we have extensive experience with it. Let’s take a look at what Simcenter Simsolid will be like in 2026. In collaboration with the CAD.cz portal, we have prepared an article that explains the essentials. In it, we outline the main benefits and how these truly revolutionary features are changing the way simulations are used in practice, including the possibility of collaboration with AI tools. The article is available in its original form on CAD.cz and as a PDF copy on our website.
Smsolid will also be the focus of a webinar hosted by Siemens Digital Industries Software, which you can watch live on May 26, 2026, or later via a recording. You can find more information and a registration link in the News section of our website.
The range of applications for Simsolid continues to grow. Companies from various engineering sectors, specifically the automotive, aerospace, and space industries, are taking advantage of this solution. It can assist designers when simulating more complex assemblies within a CAD tool is not powerful enough, or when the complexity of simplifying and meshing the model makes it impractical to even consider simulations and evaluating different design variants. There are also frequent situations where Simsolid helps an experienced analyst assess the impact of proposed design changes within a very short timeframe. The validation FEM calculation, which is labor-intensive and time-consuming, is reserved for the winning variant. Take a look at a few real-world examples.
