Description

HEEDS is an advanced software suite designed for design space exploration and optimization that seamlessly connects with various commercial computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided engineering (CAE) tools to foster product innovation. By automating analysis workflows, HEEDS significantly speeds up the product development cycle (Process Automation), optimizes the use of computational resources (Distributed Execution), and conducts thorough explorations of the design landscape for creative solutions (Efficient Search), while also ensuring that new designs meet performance standards through rigorous assessment (Insight & Discovery). The software facilitates automated workflows, streamlining the product development process for users. HEEDS boasts a comprehensive array of pre-built interfaces for numerous CAD and CAE applications, allowing for rapid and effortless integration of different technologies without requiring custom scripts. Moreover, data can be shared automatically among various modeling and simulation tools to assess and compare performance trade-offs effectively, enhancing decision-making in the design process. This interconnectedness not only saves time but also leads to more innovative and effective product solutions.

Description

PDS® is an all-encompassing and advanced computer-aided design and engineering tool. Focused on production efficiency, PDS ensures optimal design outcomes while minimizing the overall installed costs associated with projects. This application not only boosts value and mitigates risk but also maintains the integrity of data throughout the process. Since the mid-1980s, it has been the preferred choice among owner operators and engineering, procurement, and construction firms worldwide for various design initiatives. It features dynamic walkthroughs, enabling operations and maintenance teams to engage with the virtual plant before actual construction begins. Moreover, PDS offers a specification-driven design approach, performing both "hard" and "soft" interference checks, and it generates precise material take-offs. Additionally, it comes equipped with a wealth of customizable reference data that adheres to industry standards, further enhancing its utility in diverse engineering projects.
