PACE software solutions for preliminary design relieve design experts from non-value adding activities giving them the freedom to explore a wider range of alternative concepts, also off the beaten track. They help mitigate technological risks, support investment decisions and reduce time to market.
Our solutions support the evaluation of conventional & non-conventional configurations and add a further functional layer for systems architecture design while enabling investigations and trade-offs at the aircraft level.
Our product offering and open architecture enables customers to select the functionality best suited to their current design focus and objectives - contact us for a free consultation!
Shorter development cycles and faster time to market
Reliable data for strategic technology roadmap decisions
High-quality and innovative technological solutions
Easy integration into existing tool and process landscapes
Dissemination of proven design solutions and best practices
Up to 80% of the total lifecycle cost of highly engineered products are decided in the early design stages, so getting it right from the beginning is vital to the overall development success and leads to better, more innovative products.
PACE preliminary design solutions build on a best-in-class software platform for model-based design, which supports you from design space exploration to design automation.
Discover the suite of PACE products and extend your competitive edge reducing your time to market in a highly challenging business environment, while mitigating technological risks in support of your investment decisions.
Our model-based design tools support a variety of engineering tasks spanning from design space exploration and technology selection in the early project phase to in-depth layout and sizing of aircraft sub-systems and the automation of preliminary design tasks at the component or sub-system level. Our user base includes leading OEMs, first-tier suppliers and research organizations from around the world.
Discover how our best-in-class software platform for model-based design supports design space exploration to design automation and optimizes systems architectures at aircraft level, as well as adapts perfectly to conventional design configurations and future technologies.
An important objective of our model-based platform is to extend the scope of multi-disciplinary design methodologies from the early phases of the product development process (conceptual and preliminary design) to the later ones and to support evolving investigations in a single environment.
Our platform is highly scalable and extensible enabling you to incrementally increase the fidelity of the multi-disciplinary product model and seamlessly integrate commercial or proprietary analysis methods. Its open architecture also makes it very easy to interface our design platform with third-party process integration or physics-based simulation tools.
Our preliminary design solutions are embedded in an efficient ecosystem of supporting technologies:
Aerospace is a research-intensive industry and relies on universities and research institutions to contribute advanced product and process knowledge that can be translated into technological innovation.
PACE software products for preliminary design are appreciated by leading universities and research organizations, supporting a wide range of research areas:
PACE is firmly committed to supporting the education of the next generation of aerospace engineers with state-of-the-art design software – please inquire about our university licensing program.
In addition, we offer student placements and internship programs, which give graduate and post-graduate students an opportunity to apply their design skills to real-world challenges – don’t hesitate to contact us with questions and proposals.
