Introduction to MASTA CAE software

MASTA Benefits

Accurately and rapidly design transmission systems from scratch or imported concepts.

Comprehensively understand the life of a mechanical part over the customer duty cycle.

Identify potential failure modes early in the product development cycle.

Rapidly predict key performance characteristics at the design stage.

Easily explore changes in transmission layout, component selection and/or design, materials and manufacturing processes in the convenience of a virtual environment.

Perform full system simulations for any transmission configuration.

Incorporate manufacturing simulation at the design stage to reduce process development time & cost.

MASTA’s unique and modern architecture written from the ground up in C# makes it a significantly more stable comparative solution for current and future operating systems.

Testimonials

“SMT reply promptly and professionally with a friendly tone that never feels like any question is too great or too small. Overall MASTA is a fantastic piece of software, backed up by an excellent support team who clearly know the inner workings of their software. You’d think this would apply to all software providers but trust me, it does not!”

“The response from the technical support is fast, competent and helpful.”

“The competency of the SMT support group has been great with a good mix of seasoned professionals in the domain and young enthusiasts with acumen for learning and it’s always a pleasure to interact with SMT support as it results in quick solution to the problem at hand as well as learning.”

“We always get very clear and accurate responses to our questions and it’s evident that support employees really want to help. This is extremely important for us. All employees of SMT I ever contacted were very knowledgeable, polite and friendly. I am really glad that we have a partner like SMT to support us with great software and great user support.”

“We received support for everything we needed, from installing the software to using it.”

“MASTA has greatly improved our gearcase design and analysis capabilities, and of all the decisions I’ve made over the 40 years working for Joy Global, half of that in gearcase design, picking MASTA CAE software is without a doubt the best one!”

“As a development tool for the drive system in our outboard motor division, we were attracted by the rapid evolution of the software and introduced MASTA in 2016. Since then, we have achieved a 60% reduction in design review work hours during model changes and have also received support for the development of our flagship outboard motor.

For issues with prototype machines, we received accurate and prompt cause analysis and countermeasure proposals.
We have achieved results that exceed our expectations with the implementation. We look forward to future software upgrades.”
