Smart Manufacturing Technology Ltd. is a globally integrated leader in engineering services and software development. Over the last 13 years SMT has grown from a small group of experienced and driven engineers into an international enterprise serving all sectors of transmission and driveline development.

Through our strategy, dedication and innovation we promise to continually deliver the most pioneering services and technologies trusted by the world’s leading transmission and driveline engineers.

MASTA – Gearbox and driveline design, analysis and simulation

MASTA is a complete suite of CAE software for the design, simulation & analysis of advanced transmission systems from concept through to manufacture.

Comprising a large number of inter-operable modules, MASTA can be applied to all industries that use gear-shaft-bearing systems.

MASTA Benefits

  • Accurately and rapidly design transmission systems from scratch or imported concepts
  • Comprehensively understand the life of a mechanical part over the customer duty cycle
  • Identify potential failure modes early in the product development cycle
  • Rapidly predict key performance characteristics at the design stage
  • Easily explore changes in transmission layout, component selection and/or design, materials and manufacturing processes in the convenience of a virtual environment
  • Perform full system simulations for any transmission or driveline configuration
  • Incorporate manufacturing simulation at the design stage to reduce process development time & cost
  • MASTA’s unique and modern architecture written from the ground up in C# makes it a significantly more stable comparative solution for current and future operating systems
