IPS Cable Simulation

Real-Time Simulation of Wires, Wiring Harnesses & Hoses

IPS Cable Simulation provides world-leading technology for the simulation of wires, wiring harnesses and hoses. Its accuracy is unique due to algorithms developed with the Fraunhofer Research Institute.

IPS Cable Simulation Software

Design Optimisation, Virtual Assembly and Digital Mock-up of Cables, Hoses and Wiring Harnesses

Save time and reduce costs, and improve the quality and durability of your products with IPS Cable Simulation.

  • Interactive user interface with real-time visualisation
  • Automatic cable routing and optimise paths
  • Detect collisions and identify the optimum position of materials
  • Minimise the number of physical prototypes and interations
  • Motion and stress analysis of flexible materials

IPS is integrated into the product processes of leading automotive companies such as Audi, Ford, Hyundai, Toyota, Volkswagen and Volvo.

Design Optimisation

Optimise routings, lengths and shapes

With IPS, engineers can find the optimum routing, lengths and shapes for wires, hoses and flexible components interactively.

Key Features and Benefits:

  • Automatic cable routing
  • Design of flexible parts with or without predeformation, interactive optimization of routings and lengths
  • Save on the number of clips with optimised clip positioning
  • Detection of collisions
  • Motion analysis
  • Calculation of large deformations between moving parts

Virtual Assembly

Install parts without causing damages or stresses during the assembly process

In a virtual assembly process, mountability and functionality of flexible components are verified interactively with IPS.

Key Features and Benefits:

  • Feasibility tests regarding mountability
  • Analysis of constructed spaces
  • Motion analysis of flexible components
  • Adjustment and interactive optimization of flexible parts (e.g. determination of the wire length needed for the assembly process)
  • Tests of incorrect fittings

Digital Mock-up

Reduce the number of physical prototypes

Applying IPS Cable Simulation in DMU processes minimises the number of physical prototypes. Due to physically correct simulation, maximum accuracy is achieved within a fraction of the time usually spent.

Key Features and Benefits:

  • Design validation of bending radius, torsion, forces, tensions etc.
  • Swept volumes for flexibles and rigid bodies
  • Contact handling ("cable to cable", "cable-to-geometry", "self-contact")
  • Post processing and report
  • Tolerance analysis
