AI Agentic Design Intelligence System
An AI-powered multi-agent system automates the entire design-to-prototype workflow in under an hour. Specialized agents collaborate to analyze requirements, select optimal materials, generate multiple design variants using topology optimization, validate performance through FEA simulation, assess manufacturability, calculate costs, and ensure compliance - all with real-time collaboration capabilities.

AI Agents
Specialized autonomous agents working in coordination
Design Orchestrator
Design workflows require careful sequencing of dependent analyses with parallel processing of independent tasks to minimize cycle time while ensuring quality.
Core Logic
Plans and executes the design workflow, identifying parallel processing opportunities, managing agent dependencies, allocating GPU resources to compute-intensive agents (geometry, simulation), tracking progress, and coordinating handoffs between agents with proper data packaging.
Requirements Analyzer
Design briefs contain natural language descriptions, technical specifications, and implicit constraints that must be extracted, validated, and structured for downstream agents.
Core Logic
Uses NLP to extract technical requirements from design brief text, identifies hard constraints (must-have) vs. soft constraints (nice-to-have), validates completeness against industry norms, flags gaps, and structures requirements for consumption by specialist agents.
Material Science Agent
Optimal material selection requires balancing mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, cost, availability, and compliance across thousands of material options.
Core Logic
Queries a database of 2,800+ materials, filters by tensile strength, corrosion resistance, temperature range, and cost constraints. Ranks candidates using weighted scoring, recommends primary and alternative materials with full property specifications and cost-per-kg comparisons.
Generative Design Engine
Creating optimized 3D geometry requires exploration of vast design spaces to find shapes that minimize weight while meeting strength requirements - beyond human intuition.
Core Logic
Runs GPU-accelerated topology optimization with 500,000+ element meshes, applies constraint satisfaction for mounting features and dimensional limits, extracts manufacturable features (ribs, holes, bosses) from optimized shapes, and generates 5 design variants optimized for different priorities (cost, weight, strength, balanced, durability).
Physics Simulation Agent
Design validation requires finite element analysis across multiple load cases including static stress, fatigue life, and dynamic response - computationally intensive and requiring specialized expertise.
Core Logic
Generates adaptive meshes with quality indices, runs FEA solvers for static, fatigue, and thermal analyses, calculates safety factors against allowable stresses, identifies stress concentrations, predicts fatigue life cycles, and provides optimization feedback for geometry refinement.
Manufacturing Advisor
Design for manufacturability requires knowledge of process capabilities, tooling constraints, and production economics across multiple manufacturing methods.
Core Logic
Evaluates 12+ manufacturing processes against geometry and volume requirements, selects optimal primary process (stamping, CNC, casting, etc.), identifies DFM issues with severity ratings, calculates production rates and setup times, and recommends design modifications to improve manufacturability scores.
Cost Estimator
Accurate cost estimation requires modeling material costs, labor, overhead, tooling amortization, and volume pricing across production scenarios.
Core Logic
Calculates detailed cost breakdowns (material, labor, overhead, quality), estimates tooling costs with amortization schedules, generates volume pricing tiers, and computes total cost of ownership.
Compliance Validator
Industrial fasteners must meet multiple standards (ASME, SAE, ISO) and certifications (RoHS, REACH, IATF 16949) with complete audit trails for customer and regulatory requirements.
Core Logic
Validates designs against ASME B18.2.1, SAE J429, and customer-specific standards. Verifies material certifications (RoHS, REACH compliance), checks dimensional tolerances against specifications, generates audit trail documentation, and confirms PPAP readiness levels.
