AeroMat 2003 delegates enjoy materials data management course

At AeroMat 2003, Granta Design celebrated its close ties with ASM International by giving a paper, occupying a booth, and holding a two-day course.

The paper entitled “A new approach to materials data management for aerospace organisations” outlined the concept of materials information flowing within organisations and how the modular software system, CES4, can be
used to enhance it. Particular emphasis was given to the role the Materials Data Management Consortium (MDMC) has helping Granta understand these concepts, with direct feedback and software development prioritisation.

All aspects of the commercial software system CES4 were demonstrated to a large audience of engineers on Granta’s booth.

The course, entitled "Materials Information Management for Aerospace", was attended by delegates from LANL, United Defense, The Boeing Company, and Pratt and Whitney, who were joined by Dr Donald R. Muzyka, president of ASM International. The all-new course covered aerospace materials data management from the test lab through to the engineer's desktop. Delegates were introduced to a range of tools available within the CES4 software system which manage and manipulate the materials information important to aerospace organizations.
