Your battery breakthrough starts here
As battery systems witness an increase in complexity and regulations, safety requirements, and performance targets rise, simulation-led design has become the foundation of battery innovation. Hexagon’s Design & Engineering software empowers battery engineers to simulate every layer of the product life cycle, from material behavior at the microstructure level to system-wide thermal management and compliance validation.
Beyond zero prototypes
From electrode composition to pack-level validation, Hexagon’s Design & Engineering’s integrated solutions replace
trial-and-error testing with data-driven development, giving engineering teams the insight to accelerate design, improve safety, and reduce physical prototypes—without compromising performance.
Our customers have dramatically accelerated their development timelines by simulating electrochemical and mechanical performance early, reducing validation risks, and delivering batteries that excel in meeting safety and durability requirements.
Battery systems are getting complex, and so are the engineering demands
The solution:
Hexagon Design & Engineering software gives battery teams a smarter way forward:
🔹Simulate electrochemical, thermal, and mechanical behavior from day one
🔹Replace late-stage surprises with early-stage virtual validation
🔹Model everything – from microstructure to pack – in one unified, multi-physics platform
🔹Build compliance and warranty confidence into every design decision
🔹Launch faster, safer, and with complete design visibility
Powerful tools for for next-generation battery design
Digimat: Advanced material modeling to understand and optimize composite and multi-phase material behavior.
Cradle CFD: Solution for thermal management, flow analysis, and cooling strategies—critical for battery safety and performance.
CAEfatigue: Fatigue analysis software to assess structural durability and predict battery component life under real-world conditions
MSC CoSim: MSC Co-simulation engine that enables coupling between different solvers for complex multi-physics battery behavior.
MSC Nastran: Industry-standard structural analysis solution for battery pack integrity, mechanical stress, and crash simulation.
Marc: Nonlinear FEA tool for simulating advanced material behavior, including thermal, contact, and large deformation problems in battery systems.
Sienna ECAD faced a real challenge: making sure their batteries stayed cool under pressure. They used our Cradle CFD software like a secret weapon, testing different setups to find the perfect cooling recipe.
Spotlight
Accelerate battery innovation by connecting materials, design, and manufacturing into one seamless simulation workflow. Reduce iterations, speed up productisation, and deliver compliance-ready batteries built for reliability and scale.
Redefine what’s possible in battery innovation. Engineer it with Hexagon.
Get the most out of your Hexagon computer-aided engineering (CAE) software with a complete range of support options including training, e-learning, engineering services and toolkit solutions.
The problem:
Battery testing is slow. Physical prototyping is expensive. And critical safety and compliance decisions are still made too late in the cycle.
The stressors:
Global warranties stretch up to 10 years. EV platforms are accelerating. And every component – from electrode materials to pack integration – impacts long-term battery performance.
Outdated, trial-and-error workflows aren’t just inefficient anymore. They’re a risk to your revenue, your reputation, and your product success.
