Caterpillar | Manufacturing | 112900 | $64.8B | United States | Ansys Inc. | ANSYS Additive Suite | Additive Manufacturing | 2019 | n/a |
In 2019, Caterpillar implemented ANSYS Additive Suite as part of a Comprehensive AM Solution and placed an onsite ANSYS Embedded Expert from ANSYS Inc to support engineering teams. The engagement was staffed by a Senior Consulting Engineer working onsite to help Caterpillar engineers with design, model development and analysis across heavy equipment and engine component projects.
The ANSYS Additive Suite deployment encompassed broad use of ANSYS Workbench workflows and ANSYS Additive Manufacturing capabilities, alongside ANSYS Discovery Live, AIM and SpaceClaim for concept exploration. Functional modules and technical activities documented on site included finite element model development, static, thermal, impact and dynamic structural analysis, steady state and transient heat transfer, fluid flow analysis in ANSYS FLUENT, motion and rigid body dynamics, and topology optimization with ANSYS tools.
The implementation included development of ANSYS customized tools such as wizards and extensions integrated into Caterpillar process development and engineering workflows, plus training and support for ANSYS Workbench and Fluent. Specialized analysis capabilities used in the engagement included ANSYS Composite PrePost, ANSYS LS-DYNA, Fluent, CFX and Ensight for fluid and fluid-structure interaction analysis, and fatigue evaluation workflows with nCode.
Governance of the rollout emphasized an embedded expert model, on-the-job training, and standardization of process workflows through customized tool creation and documented simulation practices. Operational scope was centered on Caterpillar engineering and process development teams focused on heavy equipment and engine components, with configuration and automation work aligned to established ANSYS simulation and additive manufacturing practices.

GKN Sinter Metals | Manufacturing | 500 | $55M | United States | Ansys Inc. | ANSYS Additive Suite | Additive Manufacturing | 2018 | n/a |
In 2018, GKN Sinter Metals implemented ANSYS Additive Suite as a Comprehensive AM Solution to model selective laser melting SLM of 316L stainless steel. The ANSYS Additive Suite application was used to predict whether components would exceed allowable deformations and yield stresses during the printing process and after removal from the build plate. This work was targeted at the company’s additive manufacturing engineering function and quality engineering teams, aligning simulation results with production decision points.
Configuration centered on thermal-mechanical and residual stress simulation workflows within ANSYS Additive Suite, using material models for 316L stainless steel and layer-by-layer deposition sequences to capture transient temperature, phase change, and stress accumulation. The implementation included build orientation and support strategy scenarios, plus explicit removal-from-plate sequencing to analyze distortion and residual yield stress states. Simulation outputs were produced as engineering deliverables to inform pre-print adjustments to process parameters and part geometry.
Operational scope remained within engineering and AM process control, with ANSYS Additive Suite serving as the technical verification stage in the print release workflow. Governance introduced simulation acceptance criteria tied to allowable deformation and yield stress thresholds, enabling engineering sign-off prior to build release and creating reproducible simulation records for traceability in manufacturing and quality audits.

Relativity Space | Manufacturing | 1000 | $245M | United States | Ansys Inc. | ANSYS Additive Suite | Additive Manufacturing | 2018 | n/a |
In 2018 Relativity Space implemented ANSYS Additive Suite as a Comprehensive AM Solution to support engineering and manufacturing workflows for its large-scale 3D printed rockets. The ANSYS Additive Suite was positioned to enable simulation-driven design and additive process engineering for the company as it built the world’s largest 3D printer and used that printer to 3D print a rocket, shifting design activity directly into additive manufacturing practice.
The implementation focused on standard comprehensive AM capabilities, including design exploration and topology optimization, material and process modeling, thermal and structural simulation of builds, support generation and build preparation, and print path and sequence validation. ANSYS Additive Suite was configured to support an end-to-end design-to-build workflow and to accelerate iterative design cycles across product engineering and production engineering functions.
Governance centered on embedding additive simulation into engineering review and build release processes, with design iteration loops moving from concept to qualifying builds. Jordan Noone, Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder of Relativity Space, stated ANSYS ‘‘empowers us to reimagine how we build and fly rockets’’ and reported that using ANSYS’ streamlined additive manufacturing solutions enabled design iteration at 10x speed and consolidation to 100x fewer parts, outcomes that guided process standardization and part consolidation efforts across Relativity Space’s manufacturing organization.
