Unique technology for bulk material flow simulation

Construction and Agricultural Machinery:

Heavy Construction and Earthmoving Equipment

Pro-active heavy equipment manufacturers around the world are using EDEM®, the unique technology specifically developed for simulating bulk materials flow, to re-design their equipment for improved performance and efficiency and help their customers increase productivity and profitability.

Leading construction, road-building and earthmoving Original Equipment Manufacturers have integrated our world leading EDEM technology into their workflow.

Using our software to simulate and analyze the behavior of bulk materials during operation of their material handling attachments gives them the competitive edge in product design innovation.

Optimize the performance of your excavation and earthmoving equipment attachments:

  • dragline excavator buckets
  • backhoe excavator buckets
  • loader buckets
  • ground-engaging tools (teeth)
  • bulldozer blades
  • grader and scraper blades
  • trenchers and augers
  • dump truck bodies

 

Agricultural Equipment and Agricultural Product Processing

Test your bulk handling and processing equipment designs using EDEM®, the unique technology specifically developed for simulating bulk materials flow to visualize and analyze the particle flow in your machinery at the comfort of your desktop PC.

Enhance design innovation, optimize and improve your time to market regardless of the weather or time of year.     

From the distribution of fertilizer or seed, to harvesting, post-harvest processing and handling — agricultural equipment testing has traditionally been reliant on weather conditions and seasonal cycles up until now.

EDEM simulations help to engineer better agricultural equipment including spreaders, tillers, planters, or harvesters enabling you to;

  • Streamline product development using virtual prototypes
  • Virtual field testing of new designs—in a controlled environment
  • Analyze the flow and dispersal of granular material
  • Replicate the physical properties and behavior of each material handled
  • Improve bulk flow through transfer points
  • Replicate soil-tool interaction and wheel impact
  • Optimize equipment performance in different soil conditions
       

    Asphalt Production

    EDEM simulation software — the technical edge you need to engineer a more energy efficient asphalt plant.

    EDEM simulation software is revolutionizing the design and troubleshooting of warm and hot-mix asphalt plant components. 

    EDEM lets you work with virtual prototypes of your equipment, including moving parts, and generates accurate simulations of the flow of materials - aggregate, asphalt, or RAP-through each segment of your equipment. 

    Improve your efficiency, equipment performance and fuel efficiency by optimizing the flow of materials through conveyors, dryers and mixers.
    Optimize the performance of asphalt plants and components:

    • Bulk storage loading and unloading
    • Conveyor transfer points
    • Bulk material mixing and feeding
    • Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) crushing and screening
    • Aggregate drying equipment
    • Batch mixers and continuous mixers

     

    EDEM In Action


    Optimizing Filling Efficiency of a Backhoe Bucket

    The Challenge: Re-design of a backhoe bucket to maximize rate of fill of a particular soil type. 

    The Result: Simulation of the complete digging cycle yields successful design with only one physical prototype built.

    Virtual testing of Granular Spreader Designs

    The Challenge: Determine the spreader blade design envelope most likely to achieve the desired spreading coverage for this granular material prior to building a physical prototype.

    The Result: Virtual testing of variants of spreader design and operating conditions enables identification of problems and fast convergence on the optimum design with a minimum number of physical tests and design iterations.
