Simulayt develops and licenses the Layup Technology, which incorporates advanced fiber simulation and ply modeling capabilities. This technology allows the efficient and integrated design, analysis and manufacture of fiber reinforced products. By simulating manufacturing processes and linking this data to analysis and design models, the engineer can develop better products with greater robustness at lower cost.

The Layup Technology was first developed by Dr. J. W. Klintworth in 1991, initially driven by the aerospace composites industry. The technology was soon adopted by advanced motorsport engineers, and now, for example, the majority of successful Formula 1 cars are developed using Simulayt technology. With the continuous expansion of composite materials, the Layup Technology is now used extensively in the automotive, marine, energy, leisure and other industries utilising fiber reinforcement.

The initial use of the Layup Technology was focused within Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) and Virtual Product Development (VPD) tools utilising the finite element analysis method. More recently, the technology has been embedded within Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) tools used by design engineers. Simulayt can therefore uniquely offer solutions which bridge all engineering disciplines to offer a composites engineering solution of proven capability and broad application.
