Today’s medical manufacturers use analysis software to simulate and assess the performance of a variety of product designs, including implantable surgical devices, artificial limbs and organs, prostheses, orthopedics, and artificial heart valves. COSMOS analysis software is part of the SolidWorks suite of products and enables engineers to identify and address potential design problems before prototyping and productions.

• Analysis: COSMOS software helps engineers ensure a device’s behavior will be within design limits. Tools include those for static, thermal, nonlinear, vibration, fluid flow and electromagnetic analysis.

• Assembly analysis: COSMOS enables engineers to simulate external instrumentation systems, sensing units and control modules through the analysis of small or large CAD assemblies.

• Visualisation: COSMOS allows for a first check of design intent, along with a clear and accurate review of parts and assemblies early in the design cycle.

• Communication: COSMOS allows designers to share analysis results in various format and to publish eDrawings.
