I do not know of any other company that can offer such a complete package from design simulation right through to manufacturing and I feel these capabilities give us a distinct advantage in the CAE space.
"The CAE industry has been talking about bringing the virtual and the real world together for over 20 years, but MSC's suite of world-class solutions, combined with Hexagon's metrology and measurement data expertise is making that ambition a reality, and I'm excited to be a part of it."
