SIMULAYT Limited, the niche composites modeling software house today
announced that Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation, the U.S. helicopter manufacturer, has made a multi-licence purchase of its Advanced Fiber Modeler product for use in the CH-53K and other programs.

Dr John Klintworth, CEO of Simulayt commented

“Sikorsky’s composites components are characterised by complex curvature and thick layups. We are pleased to help Sikorsky generate accurate manufacturing data using Advanced Fiber Modeler’s advanced capabilities in conjunction with CATIA V5 Composites Design. Accurate fiber orientations can then be transferred seamlessly into complex finite element analysis models of unmatched fidelity.”
