ALGOR's InCAD Products Receive Autodesk Inventor Certification

ALGOR’s InCAD products seamlessly capture exact CAD geometry from Autodesk Inventor 5 for finite element analysis and Mechanical Event Simulation, as shown here with an assembly of an adjustable bracket. One-step assembly meshing includes automatic surface mesh matching between parts and built-in aspect ratio checking.

PITTSBURGH, PA – August 8, 2002 – ALGOR, Inc., a leading maker of software for mechanical engineers, announced that its InCAD products for Autodesk Inventor were among the first named by Autodesk, Inc. as Autodesk Inventor Certified Applications. The designation is part of Autodesk's new software partner program recognizing robust products that provide the highest levels of interoperability with Autodesk Inventor.

"The Autodesk Inventor Certified Application program helps Autodesk Inventor customers realize faster product development and shorter time to market," said Autodesk Partner Applications Manager Barrett Kamille. "High-quality products such as ALGOR's FEA and Mechanical Event Simulation [MES] solutions enhance our customers' overall productivity."

ALGOR Product Manager Bob Williams said, "We are pleased to be among the first certified Autodesk Inventor applications. This recognition strengthens our partnership with Autodesk and ensures that customers experience seamless data exchange between their Autodesk Inventor and ALGOR software."

ALGOR's InCAD Designer for Autodesk Inventor captures exact part and assembly geometry without file translation for use with any analysis type, including multiphysics, MES with linear and nonlinear material models, static stress with linear and nonlinear material models, linear dynamics, heat transfer, fluid flow, electrostatic and MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) simulation.
