ESI presents its Virtual Prototyping solutions
at the International Paris Air Show
Software & services for the virtual engineering
of aeronautic parts, systems and components
Paris, France - June 16, 2015 - ESI Group, pioneer and world-leading solution
provider in Virtual Prototyping for manufacturing industries, announces its
participation in the 51(st) International Paris Air Show in Le Bourget, June 15
to 21, 2015. ESI will present its solutions enabling industrial manufacturers in
the aerospace sector to virtually build, test and experience products, thereby
reducing or eliminating the need for real prototypes. Making the most of today's
digital capabilities including HPC and Cloud Computing, ESI's Computer-Aided
Engineering (CAE) software empowers aircraft manufacturers and their suppliers
to achieve disruptive innovations at a faster pace and managed cost.
During the Paris Air Show, ESI experts will demonstrate software solutions for
the full Virtual Prototyping from parts, to components and at the full system
level: following a path through virtual manufacturing, virtual performance
testing, to immersive experience of the product and its interaction with its
environment in virtual reality. ESI's solutions for virtual manufacturing
encompass casting, sheet metal forming, welding & assembly processes, as well as
the various processes involved in the manufacturing of composite parts. New
materials and new manufacturing processes have become increasingly important for
aerospace companies as they secure their production ramp-up and to introduce the
major innovations necessary to achieve weight reduction and fuel savings whilst
meeting or exceeding aircraft performance requirements. Virtual manufacturing
enables companies to evaluate new materials and manufacturing processes quickly
and therefore accelerate innovation.
ESI will also present its software solutions for the virtual performance testing
of future products. Such testing can be achieved well before any physical
prototype is available, by building and testing realistic virtual prototypes,
thus enabling manufacturers to detect design errors very early on in the product
development process and avoid costly, late program design changes. Among ESI's
virtual performance solutions, VA One is the all-in-one simulation software used
to test the vibro-acoustic performance of products, parts or components across
the full frequency range. Many aerospace companies including NASA and AIRBUS
Group, depend on VA One to diagnose potential noise and vibration problems up
front in the development process to improve product performance.
Also featured at the Paris Air Show, ESI's software CEM Solution addresses
Electromagnetic Compatibility and Interference issues (EMC/EMI) related to the
onboard electronics and complex cable networks found in aircrafts and aerospace
devices. With its large model-handling capacity, high operating frequencies, and
sophisticated scenarios, CEM Solution helps aerospace manufacturers take
electromagnetic modeling one step further in their quest for innovation.
ESI will also showcase Pro-SiVIC(TM), a software introduced through a recent
acquisition that addresses the interactions of an aircraft with environment.
Sample aeronautic applications include the simulation of airplane lighting
systems important when taxiing. Pilots rely on such aircraft lighting systems;
they are critical to on ground safety and faultless visibility must be
guaranteed. Pro-SiVIC(TM) provides full, immersive virtual 3D dynamic tests,
recreating the conditions of real tests on the ground and even during flight
situations.

As Virtual Reality (VR) is increasingly used by manufacturers across all
industry sectors, ESI will demonstrate how its leading VR solution IC.IDO helps
with the development of new aerospace components; supporting fully immersive 3D
engineering reviews (real-scale and real-time), providing a platform of virtual
maintenance training, and enabling interactive product presentations. IC.IDO
will be featured at the booth of AEROCAMPUS Aquitaine (Hall 4, B165, Aerospace
Valley Area), Europe's leading aircraft maintenance training center. IC.IDO
helps optimize aircraft maintenance by reducing technical constraints, cutting
the time and cost of grounding an aircraft, and avoiding possible material
damage due to operational errors. Using Diiice, Immersion's latest immersive
Virtual Reality system for state-of-the-art immersive 3D, AEROCAMPUS Aquitaine
will demonstrate its use of IC.IDO to train maintenance technicians operating on
Dassault Aviation aircraft.
Aircraft manufacturer and equipment supplier Daher will also deliver live
demonstrations of IC.IDO, illustrating how Virtual Reality can be used to set up
assembly line scenarios for its new TBM900 aircraft. With IC.IDO, Daher can
evaluate, validate and optimize assembly methods and associated processes.
Virtual Reality allows them to simulate extremely complex sets of operations for
their production lines without the need to run trials on the shop floor or to
stop the production. Virtual Reality will be used as a virtual showroom for its
aerostructures and integrated logistics offering.
Also during the International Paris Air Show, ESI will display Virtual Seat
Solution, its unique software dedicated to the end-to-end Virtual Prototyping of
seats. From manufacturing to testing a seat, and to experiencing it in Virtual
Reality, Virtual Seat Solution enables full virtual pre-certification. ESI
customer Expliseat recently shared the story of their success with this
solution: developing and certifying the lightest aircraft seat in the history of
civil aviation. This significant weight reduction translates into an estimated
3 to 5 percent fuel saving - or $300,000 to $500,000 per aircraft per year.
Meet ESI at the International Paris Air Show!
ESI will be at booth BC80 (Hall 4) with other members of the competitiveness
cluster Pôle Astech and the Paris Chamber of Commerce (CCI Ile de France). To

About ESI Group
ESI is a world-leading provider of Virtual Product Engineering software and
services with a strong foundation in the physics of the materials of which
products are built.
Founded over 40 years ago, ESI has developed a unique proficiency in helping
industrial manufacturers replace physical prototypes by virtually replicating
the fabrication, assembly and testing of products in different environments.
Virtual Prototyping enables ESI's clients to evaluate the performance of their
product, and the consequences of its manufacturing history, under normal or
accidental conditions. By benefiting from this information early in the process,
enterprises know whether a product can be built, and whether it will meet its
performance and certification objectives, before any physical prototype is
built. To enable customer innovation, ESI's solutions integrate the latest
technologies in high performance computing and immersive Virtual Reality,
allowing companies to bring products to life before they even
exist.
Today, ESI's customer base spans nearly every industry sector. The company
employs about 1000 high-level specialists worldwide to address the needs of
customers in more than 40 countries. For further information, visit www.esi-
