Cranes Software International (CSIL), the Bangalore-based global scientific and engineering software products and solutions company pronounced that it has concluded an agreement with Engineering Technology Associates (ETA) of USA to distribute and support ETA’s DYNAFORM and VPG products across India.

In order to increase awareness and educate the user base of eta/DYNAFORM and eta/VPG, CSIL would conduct a series of workshops and product demonstrations. The eta/DYNAFORM is a set of tools which enable die design engineers to evaluate the performance of stamping dies prior to physical prototype stamping dies. eta/VPG is a suite of tools used in the development of finite element models, to enable engineers to quickly and reliably develop complex models for durability and vehicle crashworthiness.

"Our association with ETA will enhance our product portfolio especially for the transportation industry. VPG in combination with LS-DYNA will help our customers handle explicit dynamic analysis problems like crash, impact, safety and drop tests which are of critical importance in today’s transportation and consumer electronics industry. With Dynaform, Cranes will enter the manufacturing sector with a world-class metal forming solution especially addressing die and stamping analyses needs," commented Pradeep Kumar, executive vice president of Cranes Software.
