FluidSIM for your simulations

For more than 25 years, FluidSIM has been the world's leading simulation software for creating and simulating circuit diagrams in pneumatics, hydraulics, and electrical engineering. FluidSIM enables valuable technical skills to be acquired by designing circuits, bringing them to life through simulation, and optimizing them through interaction. The simulation of control systems and processes has long been an industrial standard that ensures errors are prevented, and efficiency and quality are increased.

FluidSIM has already received several awards, including the Expert System Innovation Award, the Worlddidac Award and the German Education Software Award. With more than 300,000 installations worldwide, FluidSIM is one of the most successful software packages in mechatronics training.
