The Accelerated Concept to Product (ACP) Process revolutionizes the product design and... development process through a holistic, performance driven method. Learn more by watching our latest video ‘What is the ACP Process?’


The design of mechanical structures is driven by many competing criteria such as cost, ... performance and weight reduction, contrasted by enhanced multi-disciplinary performance, advanced materials and manufacturability - New technology is required to solve these challenges. Find out how the ACP Process can tackle those challenges in our latest video ‘Why the ACP Process?’


The ACP Process provides immense solutions for challenges facing the modern product ... development environment. The process is encapsulated in an “OpDesign,” a new product developed by ETA and BETA CAE Systems.The following video ‘ACP Process Benefits’ captures the essence of these vast solutions.

The Accelerated Concept to Product (ACP) Process revolutionizes the product design and development process through a holistic, performance driven method. While ACP OpDesign orchestrates the phases of product design and development and evaluates multiple design concepts.

Reduce product costs, mass & development time, while improving product performance
ACP OpDesign
The key benefits of the ACP Process include a demonstrated capability to reduce product development costs significantly, reduce product mass by approximately 20 - 40% and reduce product development time, while improving product performance in terms of stiffness, NVH, crash/safety, durability.
This technique is a proprietary, performance-driven, holistic product design development method, which is based on design optimization. ACP incorporates the use of multiple CAE tools to generate an optimal design solution. 3G Optimization is employed and allows engineers to design a concept model using holistic design approach. It incorporates material types and its properties (Grade and Gauges), Geometry (shape) and manufacturing processes for the optimum weight and performance.
