MASTA

MASTA is a comprehensive CAE environment for the design, simulation & analysis of advanced transmission systems from concept through to manufacture.

Comprising a large number of inter-operable modules, MASTA can be applied to all industries that use gear-shaft-bearing systems including:

  • Automotive
  • Wind turbine
  • Aerospace
  • Marine
  • Industrial

 

Benefits of MASTA:

  • Accurately and rapidly design transmission systems and identify potential failure modes early in the product development cycle
  • Rapidly predict key performance characteristics at the design stage
  • Easily explore changes in transmission layout, component selection and/or design, materials and manufacturing processes in the convenience of a virtual environment
  • Perform full system simulations for any transmission or driveline configuration
  • Incorporate manufacturing simulation at the design stage to reduce process development time & cost
  • Perform manufacturing tolerance studies

 

Major features of MASTA include:

  • Design entire transmission and driveline systems using a comprehensive selection of components and design databases
  • Gear tooth geometry optimisation
  • Durability analysis for gears, bearings, shafts & splines
  • System deflection analysis & minimisation
  • System NVH analysis & optimisation
  • Loaded Tooth Contact Analysis
  • Gear strength maximisation
  • Shaft Fatigue & Stress Analysis
  • Shift Performance & Quality
  • System Dynamics
  • Gear Manufacturing Design and Simulation
  • Housing & Shaft Deflection
  • Gear Scuffing Analysis
  • Drive Train Simulation
  • Planetary Load Sharing
  • Isight interface for multi-parameter global optimisation
