SUNNYVALE, Calif. - Synopsys, Inc. (NASDAQ:SNPS) announced a new simulation-driven framework for optimizing dynamic manufacturing processes in real time, developed in collaboration with Microsoft and NVIDIA, according to a press release issued Tuesday. The software giant, which maintains impressive gross profit margins of 81.13% and generates $6.43 billion in annual revenue, continues to strengthen its position as a prominent player in the software industry according to InvestingPro data.
The framework integrates GPU-native Ansys Fluent fluid simulation software with NVIDIA Omniverse libraries and Microsoft Azure cloud computing capabilities. It aims to address manufacturing optimization challenges by reducing simulation workloads from 3-4 hours to under 5 minutes.
Krones AG, a producer of packaging and bottling line systems, has implemented the technology to create a virtual assembly line that can optimize bottle filling operations while accounting for variables such as bottle shape, liquid viscosity, and fill level.
The solution leverages OpenUSD for interoperability across computer-aided engineering tools, enabling teams to collaborate and iterate on simulation results more efficiently. CADFEM Germany GmbH, an Ansys Apex Channel Partner, customized the solver settings for Krones’ specific requirements. Despite this innovation, Synopsys shares have declined 24.14% over the past six months and currently trade near their 52-week low of $365.74, with the stock currently considered fairly valued by InvestingPro metrics.
"For manufacturers, the ability to optimize dynamic processes in real-time has been a massive challenge, as traditional, high-fidelity simulation is often too slow to be practical for immediate factory-floor decisions," said Rev Lebaredian, Vice President of Omniverse and Simulation Technology at NVIDIA.
The framework is designed to deliver benefits including real-time scenario comparison, smarter resource allocation to reduce waste, and enhanced collaboration between engineering and operations teams.
Prith Banerjee, Senior Vice President of Simulation & Analysis Incubation at Synopsys, described the framework as "a major step toward scalable, intelligent simulation-driven applications that will be pivotal to ushering in the next phase of digital transformation."
The technology is being demonstrated at Microsoft Ignite, where representatives from NVIDIA, Microsoft, and Synopsys are available for discussions.
In other recent news, Synopsys announced a restructuring plan that will result in the termination of approximately 10% of its workforce by the end of fiscal year 2025. This decision comes after the completion of Synopsys’ acquisition of ANSYS, Inc. The company expects to incur pre-tax charges between $300 million and $350 million related to severance and site closures. Additionally, Synopsys confirmed the departure of Rick Mahoney as chief revenue officer, while affirming its financial targets for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2025. The company also showcased advancements in AI and semiconductor design at NVIDIA GTC Washington, enhancing its engineering solutions portfolio post-ANSYS acquisition. Furthermore, Synopsys received regulatory approval to divest its Optical Solutions Group and PowerArtist businesses to Keysight Technologies, a condition for its acquisition of Ansys. The transfer of these businesses is expected to conclude around October 17, 2025. Lastly, KeyBanc reiterated its Overweight rating for Synopsys with a $590 price target, reflecting confidence in the company’s fiscal year 2026 outlook.
