Developing VTOL drones that can smoothly transition from hover to cruise requires engineering excellence across propulsion systems, aerodynamics, energy efficiency and safety. Ansys provides the tools necessary to validate Wingcopter's drone design, which includes a redundant battery system and eight motors—four featuring tiltrotor technology—to ensure stable transitions and high performance. Simulations run in Ansys help Wingcopter predict drone behavior under varying conditions, such as strong winds, rain and different altitudes. The results are validated against real-world tests and used to refine designs through a continuous, data-driven development loop.
Wingcopter employs several Ansys products to advance its certification and development process: Ansys Discovery for 3D simulation setup, Ansys LS-DYNA to assess landing gear crash behavior, Ansys Fluent to analyze aerodynamic and propeller dynamics and Ansys medini analyze to perform safety assessments required for aviation certification across global standards. According to George Robson, Wingcopter's Team Lead for Mechanical Engineering and Aerodynamics, Ansys simulation allows the team to explore intricate design issues in ways that are otherwise difficult or impractical to test, enhancing the efficiency, reliability and innovation of their aerial solutions.
Management highlighted that Ansys technology empowers companies to adopt comprehensive, non-linear design approaches that foster innovation. As the complexity of autonomous drones increases, Ansys remains a trusted partner in delivering accurate, scalable solutions that help pioneers like Wingcopter continue to push technological boundaries.
Recently, Turbotech used Ansys' advanced simulation tools to successfully demonstrate the world's first viable hydrogen-fueled turboprop engine as part of the BeautHyFuel project. From drones to small passenger planes and VTOL vehicles, this initiative is poised for far-reaching implications powered by Ansys simulation technology.
Ansys is a dominant name in the high-end design simulation software market. The company's software solutions are used by most of the well-known manufacturing companies. Virtual prototyping instead of physical prototyping helps these companies save a considerable amount of money. The company's robust product portfolio and cross-domain offering will continue to drive the customer base.
According to Research and Markets, the global simulation software market is anticipated to increase from $18.1 billion in 2023 to $33.5 billion by 2028 at a CAGR of 13.1%.
As of March 31, 2025, Ansys reported deferred revenues and backlog totaling $1.63 billion, marking an 18.9% increase year over year. In first-quarter 2025, the company achieved 4% growth in subscription lease revenues, a 13.9% rise in maintenance revenues and a 22.5% increase in service revenues at constant currency.
The company's collaborations with advanced technology suppliers, hardware vendors, specialized application developers and CAD, ECAD and PLM providers further propel its growth prospects. In April 2025, Ansys expanded its collaboration with TSMC and unveiled AI-assisted workflows for RF design migration and PICs, alongside certifications for its semiconductor solutions. This partnership enhances 3D-IC design optimization and accelerates market readiness for AI and HPC chip applications.
