Pride,
…is probably the one word that best sums up how we feel about what LMS has achieved during the past 30 years.
Our passion for innovation is the key driver of our excellence in business and our success in driving the industry forward.
The industry is facing major challenges inventing, developing and manufacturing the right products efficiently. Designed Right, First Time. Successful products must be attractive, ecological, smart and distinctive with appealing brand values.
Mastering the complexity of next-generation products and development processes has become a major challenge for most manufacturers. For LMS, this is the essence of what drives us: the relentless pursuit of product and process innovation and the transformational solutions required to achieve this.
With the current drive for smarter and more ecologic products, engineering innovation takes on a new mission. Simulation and testing are being re-defi ned to support a novel approach to systemlevel engineering. A paradigm shift whereby the mechanics, electronics and software in a new design will simultaneously be optimized as an integrated mechatronics system.
With the integration of Imagine in 2007 and the 2010 acquisition of Emmeskay, we have expanded our portfolio for multi-physics system simulation, “plant” modeling and controls. In 2011 we acquired SAMTECH, a leading provider of Computer Aided Engineering and structural analysis software within the European aviation and aerospace industry. We are well positioned to be the Leading Partner in Test & Mechatronic Simulation. It is our aim to once again turn this compelling vision of Designed Right, First Time into reality. Digital design, both testing and simulation, will become so authentic that every customer expectation will have been exceeded by the time the fi rst prototype goes into production.
We thank you for your trust and long-term commitment to us and for the opportunity to deliver the technology, systems and support that are critical for true product innovation – for the next 30 years.
Yours sincerely,
Dr. ir. Urbain Vandeurzen
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
