PTC and Ansys share a strategic vision aligned on helping organizations improve product design and streamline operations through the ThingWorx Industrial Innovation Platform and the democratization of simulation with Creo Simulation Live and Creo Ansys Simulation
Ansys and PTC have partnered to accelerate product innovation by providing customers with a best-in-class simulation-driven design solutions. PTC has integrated Ansys technology into Creo to create two products. The first, Creo Simulation Live provides design engineers instantaneous static structural, thermal, modal and fluid flow design guidance, disrupting the traditional, time intensive design process with instant feedback through real-time simulation.
The second product; Creo Ansys Simulation is an easy-to-use, fully featured, high-fidelity simulation tool which leverages Ansys’ capabilities for thermal, structural, and modal analyses directly within Creo.
PTC and Ansys have developed a Digital Twin offering that combines expertise in simulation and IoT to extend Service Optimization solutions. The Simulation-Enhanced Digital Twin combines ThingWorx IoT data with ANSYS Twin Builder simulation to build a virtual replica that mirrors life and experience of a connected asset. Joint customers can use the Digital Twin to reduce operational cost through remote monitoring, improved diagnostics and predictive service while improving ROI by running assets at optimum performance. The solution is ideal for process-critical applications that operate in challenging environments. The Simulation-Enhanced Digital Twin is offered by PTC through select Channel Partners.
