Design and manufacture higher performance turbomachinery in less time

White River Junction, VT, USA – November 30, 2020 —

Concepts NREC is pleased to announce new releases of the Agile Engineering Design System^® and OMNIS™/Agile.

The Agile Engineering Design System^® is an integrated suite of software modules for Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) specialized for turbomachinery. New capabilities in every module make the software easier to learn and use, run faster, produce more accurate results, and expand the types of components that can be designed, optimized and manufactured. This enables our customers to optimize turbomachinery designs based on the impact to cost, machining time, and performance.

The future of turbomachinery design is here!

Concepts NREC is happy to announce that the transition of our design tools to the OMNIS platform is well underway! AXIAL™, our axial turbine and compressor meanline design and analysis product, has already made the transition. In addition, much of the axial context of our flagship 3-D design product, AxCent^®, has also been migrated to this new platform.
