Bremen, August 08, 2024 - Synera, a leader in engineering process automation, has launched a suite of AI-driven tools designed to transform the way companies approach product design and development. With increasing pressures to innovate faster, reduce costs, and improve efficiency, Synera's advanced platform offers an integrated solution that brings the power of artificial intelligence (AI) into the hands of engineers, enabling them to streamline workflows, automate repetitive tasks, and accelerate time-to-market.

Synera’s platform has gained recognition for its role in the AI landscape, recently being highlighted by Wirtschaftswoche as one of Germany’s 27 most promising AI startups (in german). As AI rapidly becomes a cornerstone of industrial progress, Synera’s solutions are perfectly positioned to bridge the gap between traditional engineering and cutting-edge AI technologies. By simplifying the use of AI in engineering, Synera empowers teams to focus on high-level innovation while minimizing the time spent on labor-intensive, repetitive tasks.

We’re witnessing an industry shift where AI is becoming an indispensable tool for engineers. Our platform was built to address this growing need by offering engineers an intuitive, low-code environment that integrates AI directly into their workflows. The goal is to enable creativity, improve efficiency, and ensure products reach the market faster, with better performance.” says Daniel Siegel, Co-CEO of Synera.

Redefining Engineering with AI-Powered Solutions

Synera’s platform is engineered to handle a variety of complex tasks that have traditionally been bottlenecks in product development, such as training data generation for machine learning (ML) models, design optimization, and simulation management. With its unique combination of AI-driven automation and engineering tools, Synera is helping companies across industries—from automotive to aerospace—achieve significant improvements in speed, accuracy, and innovation.

Here are some of the key features that make Synera stand out in the AI engineering space:

1. Automated Training Data Generation

One of Synera’s standout capabilities is its ability to automate the creation of training data for Reduced Order Models (ROMs), a technique widely used to accelerate simulations. By generating hundreds of training samples directly from parametric CAD models, finite element analysis (FEA), or computational fluid dynamics (CFD) results, Synera reduces the manual effort required. This allows engineers to create high-performance ROMs in a fraction of the time traditionally needed, paving the way for faster product iterations and more efficient design cycles.

2. AI / Machine Learning Module

Synera’s built-in AI and ML nodes enable engineers to seamlessly integrate AI into their workflows without the need for deep programming knowledge. These nodes allow users to train, test, and deploy AI models directly within Synera’s visual environment, making it easier than ever to harness the power of machine learning for complex engineering tasks such as pattern recognition, predictive modeling, and optimization.

3. Cloud AI Integration

Engineers need access to the latest tools and services. Synera’s platform is designed to connect effortlessly with cloud-based AI services, including Large Language Models and Generative AI. This feature allows engineers to plug in external AI capabilities directly into their workflows using Synera’s intuitive web nodes. As a result, engineers can now automate a variety of tasks, from design generation and simulation management to report creation, with ease.

4. Python Integration for AI Customization

Synera also recognizes the importance of customization in advanced engineering processes. With Python integration, engineers can leverage popular AI and ML libraries such as TensorFlow, Keras, and PyTorch to build tailored solutions for specific challenges. Whether engineers are working with pre-existing Python scripts or developing new ones, Synera’s platform provides the flexibility to integrate these solutions seamlessly, allowing even non-programmers to benefit from AI-powered tools.

The Power of ROMs and Automation

One of Synera’s most impactful contributions to the engineering field is its ability to drastically speed up the training of ROMs. ROMs are used to predict the behavior of complex systems—such as structural mechanics or fluid dynamics—based on a limited set of high-fidelity data. Traditionally, creating ROMs requires extensive manual work to generate the necessary training data from simulations. Synera automates this entire process, enabling engineers to produce ROMs faster and with greater accuracy, using their existing simulation tools like Siemens ROM Builder or Altair ROM AI.

By automating the process of generating hundreds of training samples from simulation results, Synera frees up engineers to focus on higher-level design tasks. The platform’s connectors to ONNX and FMU models ensure that Synera can seamlessly integrate with sophisticated deep neural networks, further enhancing the speed and accuracy of ROM creation.

Real-World Impact and Customer Success

Synera’s AI-driven solutions are already making a significant impact across industries. Leading automotive companies, for example, are using Synera to optimize crash simulations, predict manufacturing costs, and streamline simulation data analysis. Richard Kordaß, Project Leader for Innovation at EDAG, a leading engineering company, praises the platform: The fully automated CAE mesh creation and AI algorithms have been transformative for our program. We obtain Head Impact Crash (HIC) values within seconds, saving precious time and resources.

The platform’s flexibility and ease of use have made it a favorite among engineers looking to integrate AI without needing extensive programming expertise.
