MMD Design & Consultancy is a world leader in the design and manufacture of mineral sizing technology. Innovation continues to be key to its success, and at the centre of this is a design methodology driven by engineering simulation. Wilde has been instrumental in supporting this process through the supply of ANSYS Mechanical products, consultancy services and software training to maximise the in-house benefits. Recently, MMD has added ANSYS SpaceClaim Direct Modeler to its portfolio and this has contributed further significant business benefits.
