Whether they call it smart manufacturing or Industry 4.0, Altair helps customers realize their factory of the future. We provide software and cloud solutions that integrate the enabling technologies of simulation, high-performance computing (HPC), and artificial intelligence (AI) to power a digital transformation in their production facilities and throughout their organization.
Altair’s customers span companies from discrete and process manufacturing to oil, gas, mining, and other industrial segments.
Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is increasing connectivity, generating data, and unlocking potential. Altair knows how to take full advantage of data to fuel innovation, drive new opportunities, and accelerate your smart manufacturing transformation.
Digital twins help organizations optimize performance, gain visibility of in-service life, know when and where to perform maintenance, and how to extend a product’s remaining useful life. We take a complete, open, and flexible approach that enables your digital transformation vision on your terms.
Today, many organizations are taking new approaches to the design and optimization of components for additive manufacturing. Altair provides a powerful, comprehensive solution that enables designers to unleash the potential of additive manufacturing to create intricate, organic shapes to meet functional requirements without needing to deal with the constraints of traditional manufacturing methods.
Altair can help you deploy edge compute clusters, train and execute machine learning models, implement complex application business logic, perform data transforms, visualize real-time data, and much more.
The 5G standard is the foundation for many IIoT applications. Simulating the devices, 5G antennas, and the 5G networks they are operating within, helps to create the desired communication performance.
We give you the building blocks for your digital transformation to get moving fast, scale quickly, and continue to improve over time.
Manufacturing simulation has traditionally been applied during the latter stages of product development, but Altair has pioneered simulation-driven design for manufacturing (SDfM), bringing manufacturing simulation into the earliest stages of concept design with fast, accurate solvers and intuitive interfaces. This innovation allows concept designs to consider more manufacturing options and constraints, enabling engineers to better understand designs instead of depending purely on institutional know-how.

The increasing complexity of industrial machinery requires active management of technical risks in product line development and customer implementation projects. Altair’s integrated product and process simulation tools allow a holistic view of the system from different roles to ensure perfectly running production earlier.
Machine learning enables equipment to become self-aware, optimize itself, allow machine makers to automate path error corrections, and vary manufacturing tolerances or mechanical aging of the system.
By extracting real value from their data, manufacturers can make accurate predictions about component life, replacement requirements, energy efficiency, utilization, and other factors that have direct impacts on production capacity, throughput, quality, sales, customer acceptance, and overall efficiency.
Low cost sensors and new wireless connectivity tools enable manufacturers to employ digital analytics more effectively than ever before. With the right tools, they can gather, cleanse, process, and visualize massive amounts of data from disparate sources that cover all phases of the product life cycle, from product design to warranty claims.
This guide explains some of the major challenges involved in applying data analytics to manufacturing processes and the benefits of developing optimized approaches to addressing those challenges.

Any industry that produces bulk quantities of goods such as pharmaceuticals, food, chemicals, or cosmetics, is seeking to produce these products consistently while reducing cost factors like waste and down time. Due to the nature of process manufacturing, multiple ingredients are combined to be mixed, coated, or sorted, so understanding the behavior of these processes is of paramount importance for manufacturers. Through the use of simulation modeling and Smart Manufacturing principals, manufacturers are now able to optimize these processes, leading to greater productivity and profitability.
Product engineers are under consistent pressure to reduce the costs, improve the quality and increase the throughput of manufacturing processes. This fast-paced environment is not well suited for trial-and-error manufacturing engineering.
How are engineers responding to these challenges? Is simulation and simulation-driven design for manufacturing (SDfM) well established across the industry? When simulation is deployed, does it deliver on the promises of reducing costs while improving throughput and quality? And what are the barriers to the adoption of simulation during the early stages of product development?
In this 2021 survey report conducted by Engineering.com, we discuss those questions and discover:
