Magsoft Joins Forces with Schneider Electric


BALLSTON SPA, N.Y., Sept. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Magsoft Corporation is proud to announce the development of their new partnership with Schneider Electric. Magsoft and Schneider Electric have worked closely together for over 15 years, but this announcement marks a transition into a more rigorous and closely coupled inter-relationship.

Magsoft's flagship product is Flux. Flux is a general purpose Computer-Aided Engineering [CAE] simulation software, which readily allows one to virtually prototype electromagnetic or electro-mechanical devices. The extent of capabilities provides one with the ability to analyze either global device response or fine detail localized behavior. External circuit and rigid body coupling allow Flux to provide a full transient solution, and the ability to utilize combinations of mesh-types insures a solution with a minimum computation time. Existing parameter controls are revolutionary and allow one to readily create geometry relationships and expressions. Component libraries can be easily generated, and with the modification of parameters entirely new structures can be evaluated. Optimization, robust design and design-of-experiment studies are a quick extension to the use of Flux.

Flux will be the global standard for Schneider Electric's electromagnetic analysis. Schneider Electric will have unlimited access to the Flux technology, and according to Claude Ricaud, Senior VP of Science and Technology "the modelling capabilities within Flux are tremendous, and we are extremely pleased to be able to leverage these technologies to design more rapidly even more robust products for our markets. Sharing R&D efforts seamlessly between our centers all over the world will increase our R&D efficiency and responsiveness. This co-design capability will also give us stronger innovation potential."

"We too are very excited about this new partnership, and it will certainly be a strong catalyst for sustaining our future software development efforts. One major goal that we have is to provide the building blocks necessary to couple to complementary tools available in the marketplace thus improving connectivity and interoperability. Multi-physics transient simulation solutions are now a must for improving the energy efficiency of devices. We can certainly see this on the horizon, " says Philippe Wendling VP of Magsoft Corporation.
