Solving Equipment Design Challenges with Particle Simulation - Webinar
Ansys Rocky for Agri-Food Equipment
Designing equipment for agricultural and food processing applications involves dealing with complex material behavior that is often difficult to predict. Grain abrasion, powder buildup, flow irregularities, premature wear, and unexpected blockages can lead to downtime, reduced throughput, and costly redesigns.
Understanding how materials behave inside equipment is critical — yet traditionally, this insight only becomes available late in development or after failure occurs.
To help address these challenges, we are hosting a free technical session on Ansys Rocky - a particle simulation tool that helps engineers visualize how grains, powders, and seeds interact with equipment.

Key Takeaways
Through practical examples, you will see how simulating the movement and interaction of grains, powders, and seeds can help engineers:
- Identify wear-prone areas and improve equipment durability
- Detect potential blockages in chutes, hoppers, silos, and feeders
- Enhance flow uniformity for more consistent processing
- Reduce unplanned downtime and maintenance events
- Optimize mixing, conveying, drying, and handling operations
Our Application Engineer Nikhil Fernandes will guide you through real-world scenarios commonly encountered in agricultural and food equipment design, showing how early material-behavior insights can reduce trial-and-error, streamline development, and increase operational reliability.
