Key features and benefits

Main features

• Reduces model development time from months to days while producing high-fidelity, high-performance models.
• Its multi-domain physical modeling environment supports system-level modeling.
• A completely open environment, never restricted to integrated components or analyses
• Seamlessly integrates with popular tool chains in real time, including Simulink and IMF-compatible tools.
• CAD Toolbox module: import CAD models into MapleSim and capture kinematic and kinetic properties of model components

Benefits

• Develop better projects with powerful analysis and optimization tools. Due to the symbolic computing mechanism, MapleSim has an extensive library of built-in analysis tools for sensitivity analysis, parameter scanning, as well as tools for developing custom analytics.
• Get extremely fast simulation code - with MapleSim, you can get real-time simulation speeds without sacrificing loyalty.
• The CAD Toolbox module allows users to see how mechanical CAD models will behave as part of a larger multi-domain system and apply MapleSim's advanced analysis tools to improve projects.
