MDESIGN mechanical

Product Logic

A software environment for core computational tasks in mechanical engineering

MDESIGN mechanical brings together the calculation, analysis, and documentation of key machine components in a unified software environment. Users do not work with isolated individual tools, but rather follow clearly structured technical workflows.

The structure is based on typical engineering processes in mechanical engineering: joining technology, drive technology, spring technology, and fundamental analyses of materials and strength assessment. This allows calculations to be performed in a transparent manner, variants to be evaluated in a targeted way, and results to be documented consistently.
