The team utilizes MSC Nastran and Adams to simulate various sub-systems such as engines and transmissions until it conforms to standards and then builds a physical prototype, thus saving costs and time in product development. In particular, MSC Nastran is being used for NVH and Durability analysis; Adams is being used for System Level Vehicle Dynamic studies.

“Virtual validation of design has become a key step in our product development process,” said Mr. Ashish Arora, Head - Engineering Service, Escorts Agri Machinery. “Use of MSC solutions has contributed to the reduction in the number of physical prototypes as well as the number of physical tests that we carry out before finalizing the design. We have been able to reduce development time and bring our new product lines to domestic and export markets significantly faster.”
