About Rand Simulation Rand Simulation is focused on helping organizations bring their product vision to reality through incorporating engineering simulation technology into the product development process. Rand Simulation caters to product development organizations looking to compress the design process, maximize innovation, strengthen competitive differentiation and grow bottom-line profitability. Rand Simulation serves as both a North American reseller of Ansys engineering simulation software and as a trusted design consultant offering insights gained on over 4,000 design projects using engineering analysis software to balance design performance with size, cost, DFM and aesthetics. E L I T E C H A N N E L PA R T N E R simulation@rand.com | RandSIM.com | 888.483.0674 Ansys Rocky Particle Simulation Company Name IMS Engineering Industry Mining Challenge IMS needed to make design improvements in product development and implementation, specifically regarding the cone crusher and feeder breaker. Solution Engineers used Rocky to evaluate multiple designs and concepts to select the most efficient and cost-effective solution. Results They were able to decrease design time and operational costs by reducing the risk of under-performing equipment. Rocky in Action Summary Ansys is the gold standard in engineering simulaton software. For more than 50 years, the company has developed software that helps engineers test design variations in virtual environments to minimize the chance of failure. The addition of Rocky to the Ansys product portfolio expanded its simulation capabilities to include the leading DEM software, and with the integration of Rocky into Ansys Workbench, manufacturers now have more opportunities than ever to assess the multiphysics interactions of their designs to save time and money while improving the customer and employee experience. As an Ansys Elite Channel Partner, Rand Simulation helps companies of all sizes and in all industries realize the benefits of Ansys software through sales, training, and support as well as through consulting services.
