Altair, a global leader in computational intelligence, is set to unveil its latest advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and simulation technologies at Hannover Messe 2025, scheduled from 31 March to 4 April in Hanover, Germany. The company aims to demonstrate how its innovations can accelerate business growth, enhance performance, and promote sustainable success across various industries.
Ravi Kunju, Altair’s Chief Product and Strategy Officer, emphasised the pivotal role of AI and machine learning in meeting contemporary organisational demands for speed, quality, and cost-effectiveness. He stated, “Altair’s AI-powered engineering solutions unlock deeper insights, accelerate design, and enhance decision-making to create a safer, more connected, more sustainable future.” A notable example is the collaboration with CNH Industrial, where Altair’s AI-augmented simulation tools facilitated the creation of a digital twin, streamlining product development with rapid predictions and performance enhancements.
Giuseppe Gullo, FEA Design Analysis Engineer at CNH Industrial, highlighted the benefits of this partnership: “Thanks to Altair’s cutting-edge virtual product development solutions, we created a digital twin of our product, helping us gain a better understanding and slash our time to market.” He further noted that the AI-driven algorithms streamlined validation processes, accounted for complex effects, reduced computational costs, and optimised workflows.
At Hannover Messe 2025, Altair plans to showcase AI’s transformative potential across several domains:
-
Smart Manufacturing: Introducing scalable AI solutions designed to enhance operations, optimise supply chains, and streamline maintenance, all without necessitating extensive data science teams.
-
AI-Powered Engineering: Demonstrating how embedded AI can accelerate design, simulation, and decision-making through intuitive, user-friendly workflows.
-
Digital Twins: Showcasing the advanced integration of simulation, AI, and high-performance computing (HPC) to create comprehensive, end-to-end digital twins.
-
Knowledge Graphs: Providing comprehensive organisational context to enterprise analytics solutions, especially those employing generative AI.
-
AI Fabric: Presenting a next-generation data and AI architecture approach that enables businesses to transform their operations.
