CADFEM – world of simulation

Simulation without limits

Liebherr stands for a group of companies that is successful with a wide variety of products and systems, at over 140 locations. One constant: Simulation with Ansys and CADFEM.

Cranes, refrigerators, electronics, aircraft systems, excavators ... few companies are as diversified as Liebherr.
One constant is found in many plants, divisions, countries: Liebherr engineers simulate with Ansys and CADFEM.

Why Liebherr relies on Ansys and CADFEM

04

Simulation is everywhere. Also in your everyday life.

Simulation changes the world and makes it better. It is a powerful tool in our hands to successfully master challenges in industry, medicine and environmental protection.

Simulation is more than software.
It is a strategic tool in the development of products and drives innovations in the development of products and helps to improve them and drive new innovations. We accompany you in the introduction of simulation in your company.

The new CADFEM headquarters

Since April 1, 2022: New address, new name, new rooms.

CADFEM Germany GmbH
Am Schammacher Feld 37
85567 Grafing b. München

The new CADFEM company building on the Schammacher Feld in Grafing replaced the long-standing headquarters at the Marktplatz. Much space has been created - for fresh ideas, for pleasant working and for healthy growth.

Simulation is everywhere. Also in the universe?

Simulation does not serve a special purpose, but all of us. It makes a simple, innovative and sustainable product that saves lifes and makes people happy. At the same time, simulation increases the value of the company, because it saves costs, shortens development time and improves product quality.

Simulation spurs innovation and progress.

Joachim Henkel
Computational Engineer and Head of Structural Engineering, Liebherr-Werk Ehingen GmbH
We have been using ANSYS as the most important strategic simulation tool in the structural-mechanical calculation and optimization of steel components for more than 30 years. The constructive and trusting partnership with CADFEM has lasted just as long. Our success proves us right: From the very beginning, we have relied on the right horse.

The assembly of wind turbines requires cranes with a high load capacity and the lowest possible dead weight. Liebherr relies on simulations to master this challenge and develop ever lighter, faster and more powerful cranes.

From mobile and crawler cranes to tower slewing cranes and heavy-duty offshore cranes: Liebherr continuously develops innovative crane concepts according to individual customer requirements. Thanks to simulations with Ansys, ever larger crane capacities and shorter delivery times are possible.
