"Years of modeling with MagNet have shown that it is extremely valuable in the design of magnetorheological devices with predictable performance."

"Eriez has been using Infolytica’s MagNet software since 1987 to design and optimize our industrial magnetic product lines. Product development that once took excessive time (for prototypes and modifications) now requires considerably less. Infolytica’s software, thanks to their technical support staff, has been an excellent tool for Eriez with which to generate data that would otherwise be either unavailable or impractical to obtain."

"Infolytica's FE MagNet package is an intuitive and interactive tool in terms of geometry building and solver parameter setup. Eddy current loss, leakage inductance, and flux density distribution are readily available without user request. Customer Support service is very accessible. Staff are friendly and everyone speaks English with a lovely French accent."

"MagNet is capable of solving complex EM problems that many other FEA EM software do not. Using MagNet is a lot easier and less time consuming than other FEA software we have used. When we have problems with our models, the knowledgeable support staff of Infolytica always address our problems promptly. They follow through until the problems are solved. Even when we do not experience particular problems, representative of Infolytica follow up from time to time to make sure we are indeed problem free. Infolytica is very flexible in accommodating our needs."

"MagNet has an intuitive user-interface, which puts powerful magnetic analysis tools into the hands of all of our design engineers. For a small company such as MagneMotion, this is vastly superior to requiring support from a dedicated software operator. We recently added thermal modeling and analysis capabilities by purchasing ThermNet. The consistent, intuitive user interface allowed us to yield productive results on the very day that we installed the software."

"I evaluated versions of magnetic field calculation software from a number of vendors and settled on Infolytica after concluding that MagNet was the most intuitive to learn and use. It is very easy to generate line graph plots from the results of the modeling and print them out on the same screen as the 3D field plots. Exporting the data to spreadsheets is a simple matter of highlighting the data from the MagNet graph table, copying it onto the clipboard, then pasting it into a standard spreadsheet program table. I recommend the Infolytica MagNet product without reservation. The telephone customer support has always been prompt, professional, and efficient. I have found the 3D modeler to be the most useful and have optimized many permanent magnet and electromagnet yoke designs with it."

"We don't use FEA every day, so we don't need a full time, dedicated FEA expert. Infolytica rebuilt its applications from the ground up with a thoroughly modern user interface that makes it easy for the occasional user to pick up one of their FEA applications and quickly go from concept to solution. Sophisticated parameterization and scripting capabilities enables us to create a library of common model components that can be quickly dropped into and scaled for new machinery designs. Furthermore, the underlying command structure uses a Windows-compliant scripting language that makes it extremely easy to automate tasks and integrate with other Windows programs, such as Visual Basic for Applications, Mathworks' MATLAB^®, and MS Office. Having fewer steps to a solution reduces our analysis costs and time to complete a design."

"We have used MagNet for over 10 years. It has paid for itself many times over by helping us evaluate novel designs, win contracts, reduce technical risks, control costs and meet specifications. It's combination of accurate, robust solvers, easy user interface, integrated parametric design, scripts and ActiveX automation make virtual prototyping a routine mode of operation. We use it for electromagnetic analysis and design; multi-physics analysis; engineering design; sensitivity analysis to aid engineering, fabrication, assembly, production and testing.

We have experimentally confirmed that MagNet has a precision of better than 10 ppm and an accuracy of 0.1%, limited only by our databases. During device tuning MagNet has been very helpful in sensitivity analysis and modeling at the 0.01% level.

Infolytica products are easy to use so the majority of our electromagnetic analysis effort is in design optimization not the straightforward task of building models. We are presently using OptiNet to make specialized optimization functions that meet our particular requirements. This should further reduce the overall cost of ownership.

A typical analysis and design cycle is to optimize an electromagnetic design using MagNet scripting and parametric analysis; export the solid model to engineering; perform engineering analysis and design, import the engineering solid model back into MagNet and then affirm the engineering design meets specifications by re-analyzing with MagNet. This process greatly reduces errors and improves performance.

Our products tend to have large, complex, dangerous, dynamic forces acting on the components during assembly and routine operation. Our mechanical engineers make use of the parametric electromagnetic force/torque analysis to aid in the design of the overall mechanical structure as well as specialized assembly tooling.

The Infolytica technical support staff are professionals who are very helpful in providing timely and useful assistance.

Overall, we are very pleased with MagNet."

"After evaluating several EM FEA software, our company decided to purchase MagNet, because MagNet has powerful capacity of modeling, flexible operation of pre-processing, and convenient tools for post-processing analysis. During my use of MagNet, Infolytica's technical support staff always quickly solved the questions we met in modeling and solving. In general, I am very satisfied with MagNet."

"The analytical design of induction process equipment is not an easy task as most material properties are highly temperature dependent and the geometries are often quite complex. MagNet and particularly ThermNet, which can easily handle temperature dependent material properties, have proven to us to be invaluable tools in this regard. Through MagNet and ThermNet modeling we have been able to move from empirically determined to simulated solutions, and have thus gained a far more in depth understanding of the processes our equipment perform. We also have found these tools invaluable in validating our analytical models and we can readily determine their range of validity by comparing their solutions to ThermNet or MagNet simulations. These solutions have eliminated costly, time-consuming experiments or data collection expeditions to customer facilities.

It has been a wonderful experience working with Infolytica as a company. In our 10-year relationship, we have had excellent customer support and many valuable technical exchanges with their knowledgeable and competent staff. MagNet and ThermNet have been one of the better engineering tool investments our company has made."
