DEM SOLUTIONS EDEM 2018 EDEM is the market-leading software for bulk material simulation Powered by state-of-the-art Discrete Element Modeling (DEM) technology, EDEM quickly and accurately simulates and analyzes the behavior of bulk materials such as coal, mined ores, soil, tablet, and powders. Engineers designing heavy equipment are challenged on a daily basis by the variability and complex nature of the materials that their machine will face. EDEM software brings the benefits of Discrete Element Method (DEM) simulation to the heavy equipment manufacturing industry as a tool that uniquely simulates and analyzes the behavior of bulk materials such as coal, ores, soils and grains. EDEM provides engineers with crucial engineering insight into how materials will interact with their equipment during a range of operating conditions. By introducing EDEM simulation and analysis into their design workflow, equipment manufacturers are significantly reducing their reliance on assumption and physical prototyping and are able to increase the productivity and reliability of their equipment by understanding how a material will affect their designs.
