When it comes to manufacturing innovative aerospace technologies, the product development and analysis process can be long and tedious. As part of their new generation launch vehicle and spacecraft engine product offerings, Astra was looking for a way to streamline their product development life cycle. While they intended to improve speed and efficiency, it was important that Astra’s team not lose accuracy within their data and remain consistent with their pre-existing test results. With Altair SimSolid, Astra was able to build and analyze better, more reliable products faster. It allowed Astra to perform the expected workload they needed, producing robust results and accurate reporting in a tenth of the time it took other in-house tools currently in use.
