Building the Perfect Robot: Harnessing the Power of Simulation
Presented in collaboration with:
ANYbotics leads the way in developing battery-powered legged robots for industrial applications in complex, hazardous, and potentially explosive environments such as off-shore oil platforms and industrial plants. The robots are hi-tech products with state-of-the-art sensors, electronic equipment, and parts that require precise engineering within strict safety and operating limits.
ANYbotics has been leveraging the power of engineering simulation in the cloud by using SimScale to optimize its designs’ structural, thermal, and airflow characteristics.
“Autonomous robotics require demanding engineering simulation that can account for a broad range of physical phenomena” — Alessandro Scafato, Team Lead, Hardware Verification Engineering at ANYbotics
Team Lead, Hardware Verification Engineering
Dr. Alessandro Scafato, Team Lead, Hardware Verification Engineering at ANYbotics, is a simulation specialist and has a Ph.D. from Loughborough University, UK. He leads the simulation and analysis capabilities at ANYbotics and acts as an internal consultant to the broader engineering and product development teams.
Product Manager – Structural Mechanics
David is the product manager for Structural Mechanics at SimScale. He brings with him years of professional experience in CAE, with a background in marine engineering. He is committed to helping organizations discover the benefits of early-stage simulation and works to make nonlinear and dynamic FEA applications accessible to design engineers worldwide.
“ITW is a world leader in plastic components for the automotive industry and we are successfully using SimScale in order to understand the insertion/holding force of our fasteners, and perform vibration and fatigue stress to our brackets and different components. Since I am not a dedicated FEA engineer, I need something fairly intuitive and fast that points me in the right direction and SimScale is perfect for this with a very well-designed interface. I get good results for quite complicated plastic parts that have a lot of deformation. Plus, if I run into trouble, I can always rely on the very helpful and proactive SimScale support team.”
“When I started with SimScale, I knew from my previous experience how simulations are structured and work, but I had forgotten some details over the years. The great tutorials, documentation, and personal conversations with support have brought me up to date within 2 months of using SimScale. I am now well versed and use SimScale even with smaller problems to confirm my pre-calculations and to quickly compare design studies.”
SimScale is the world’s first cloud-native SaaS engineering simulation platform, giving engineers and designers immediate access to digital prototyping early in the design stage, throughout the entire R&D cycle, and across the entire enterprise. By providing instant access to a single fluid, thermal, and structural simulation tool built on the latest cloud computing technology, SimScale has moved high-fidelity physics simulation technology from a complex and cost-prohibitive desktop application to a user-friendly web application, accessible to any designer and engineer in the world.
