⚡ Quantum Brief
SIMCON unveiled the Cadmould AI Solver, the world’s first Large Engineering Model for plastic injection moulding, co-developed with Emmi AI. The transformer-based system delivers simulation results up to 1,000 times faster than traditional solvers. The AI Solver eliminates computational bottlenecks by providing instant feedback on filling patterns, pressure, and temperature, reducing hours-long simulations to seconds. This acceleration enables engineers to explore vastly more design variations during early development phases. The technology complements rather than replaces classical solvers. Engineers use the AI Solver for rapid iterative design, then switch to high-precision numerical validation for final manufacturing approval. Built on a transformer architecture trained on hundreds of terabytes of data, the AI generalizes to unseen geometries without retraining, accurately predicting complex physical behaviors in new part designs. SIMCON launched a free interactive preview and a Partner Program for industrial enterprises, offering early access to upcoming features like shrinkage and warpage prediction while incorporating user feedback into development.

The Cadmould AI Solver shatters this barrier by providing engineers with instant feedback on filling pattern, pressure, and temperature in seconds. What once required hours per simulation now takes seconds, enabling engineers to explore orders of magnitude more design alternatives during early development.Article contentArticle contentCrucially, the new AI technology is designed to complement, not replace, traditional numerical solvers. In this new paradigm, engineers use the Cadmould AI Solver in the early stages to rapidly explore the solution space and narrow down the optimal process window. Once the ideal design is identified, the classical numerical solver within Cadmould Flex is used to perform the ultimate, highest-precision validation required for final manufacturing sign-off.Article contentTop StoriesGet the latest headlines, breaking news and columns.There was an error, please provide a valid email address.Sign UpBy signing up you consent to receive the above newsletter from Postmedia Network Inc.Thanks for signing up!A welcome email is on its way.

Together, they create an end-to-end workflow that is both incredibly fast and reliable.”Article contentBuilt on a transformer-based neural network architecture and trained on hundreds of terabytes of data, the AI Solver demonstrates true geometric generalization. It accurately predicts complex physical behaviours and filling patterns for new, unseen part topologies without requiring model retraining.Article contentTo mark the milestone, SIMCON has launched a free, interactive research preview accessible directly via web browser. Simultaneously, the company is inviting interested practitioners to apply for its Partner Program. Designed for industrial enterprises, the program gives partners priority access to upcoming capabilities – such as shrinkage and warpage prediction – as they become available. Partners benchmark the AI Solver against their own geometries in close exchange with SIMCON’s engineering team, and their feedback directly informs the product roadmap.Article contentAbout SIMCONArticle contentSIMCON, founded in Germany, is a software company specializing in injection moulding simulation and optimization solutions.
