What is the GRANTA MI:Steels Package?
What's new in GRANTA MI Version 6?
New StahlDat Sheet Steels for Automotive reference data. Search improvements for metals designations (see MI:Viewer), handle real materials data (see MI:Server), upload anywhere (see MI:Toolbox), easier administration (see MI:Admin).
A package of GRANTA MI modules for the efficient management of your in-house materials data, integrated with reference data for steels from leading industry sources.
You can build a single system, configured to your needs, to manage all of your proprietary materials data—from testing, QA, research, and beyond. Within the same system you can gain efficient multi-user access to leading sources of steels data—StahlDat and MI-21. Use this integrated information resource to control and analyze your own data, or to select and compare steels for engineering applications. All of this information can be accessed and applied from the engineering desktop—via web browser or from within your chosen CAD or CAE application.

What is in the MI:Steels package?
Software—the core MI:Data Management Package:
| MI:Server | This robust, scalable materials database system can be populated with your in-house materials data and with your choice of external reference information. |
| MI:Viewer | The core web browser-based user interface with tools to browse, query, report on, edit, import and export data to engineering software. |
| MI:Toolbox | Windows application supporting higher-intensity import, export, and processing tasks. |
Data—integrated access to the following leading data sources:
| MI-21 | A global overview of metals from The Welding Institute (TWI) and the World Metal Index (WMI)—ideal for equivalence studies. |
| StahlDat SX | European steel standards from the Stahl-Eisen-Liste plus temperature-dependent properties for many steels in this list. |
| StahlDat Sheet Steels for Automotive |
Test data providing support for crash and forming simulation. |
| SteelSpec | Excellent coverage of US and UK steels standards (ASTM, British Standards, UNS / SAE / AISI / ASTM Standards). |
| MaterialUniverse | Data on over 3,000 generic materials types (including steels) from Granta—enables broad-based comparisons between materials options. |
Additional options to consider
MI:Materials Gateway—if you need to access and apply data from within CAD, CAE and other third-party software.
MI:Substitute—find a replacement material to address issues such as obsolescence, supplier change, or regulation.
MI:Optimize—if you need tools to make better, more consistent materials choices, optimizing performance and cost.
You can configure a system to meet your specific needs using the full range of GRANTA MI system modules and compatible data »
