Trial and error is the wellspring of creation. Yet at times, it comes at a heavy cost. Development timelines worn down. Limited chances to validate. Decisions with no way back. On the ground, engineers keep searching for answers they cannot yet see. RICOS is redefining the very premise of manufacturing. With proprietary simulation technology free from reliance on experience and intuition, we open new paths for the manufacturing process. AI-CAE explores countless possibilities—breaking through the limits of what manufacturing can be. Now, uncover the form of the unknown.

RICOS offers a suite of products designed to revolutionize design and development processes in manufacturing. Our solutions include RICOS Lightning, which leverages AI and machine learning to accelerate simulations, RICOS Generative CAE for automated optimal shape exploration, and the RICOS Production Suite platform. These systems empower engineers to realize their ideal designs with unprecedented speed and precision.

  • RICOS Lightning

    RICOS Lightning

    RICOS Lightning is an application that predicts simulation results using machine learning algorithms. By replacing time-consuming simulations in the design process with RICOS Lightning’s predictions, computation time can be significantly reduced. Our core AI technology, centered on the proprietary “IsoGCN” algorithm, enables detailed learning of 3D geometries, making it ideal for predicting complex shapes used in practical design environments.

  • RICOS Generative CAE

    RICOS Generative CAE

    RICOS Generative CAE is a system that automates the loop from shape modification to performance validation, executing hundreds of thousands of iterations to explore and propose optimal designs. Our proprietary CAD system, Truck, handles shape generation and modification with high-speed computation and versatile modeling capabilities. By programming mechanisms that balance constraints with performance requirements, the system supports shape creation for both product refinements and novel design concepts.
