Simcenter System Architect 2606: Platform for System-Level Co-Simulation & Architecture Design

Simcenter System Architect 2606 is Siemens' specialized platform for creating, integrating, and managing heterogeneous system simulation architectures to support model-based systems engineering (MBSE) and co-simulation workflows . It provides a practical environment for assembling simulation assets from multiple sources to evaluate system-level performance across domains like energy management, drivability, and aircraft synthesis .

Core Capabilities

Co-Simulation Platform for Modular System Simulation

The software provides a highly flexible co-simulation approach, enabling users to combine many simulation assets into a single executable system architecture . It supports importing models from various sources, including Simcenter Amesim, MathWorks Simulink, CATIA Magic, and standards like Modelica SSP and Functional Mock-up Units (FMU) . A robust co-simulation backend automatically orchestrates the execution of these assets in their native formats, allowing teams to rapidly evaluate designs with any methodology or fidelity .

Connecting Systems Engineering to System Simulation

Simcenter System Architect directly links abstract simulation assets into the system architecture, maintaining a single source of truth for consistency and traceability throughout the product lifecycle . Changes to system or simulation models can be propagated quickly into the digital thread, saving engineering time and supporting a trustworthy verification and validation process .

Model Management & Enterprise Collaboration

The platform provides model management capabilities to harmonize simulation architecture models and reusable libraries across the enterprise and beyond . Teams can control intellectual property with IP-free and IP-full variants of simulation assets while facilitating collaboration with partners . It connects to various data management tools, from file-based Git to Siemens' Teamcenter PLM solution .

Reuse of Simulation Assets

The software enables users to organize simulation assets from different sources (Simcenter Amesim, Matlab Simulink, and FMUs) into a single reusable library to leverage enterprise know-how seamlessly . Internal teams, suppliers, and partners can collaborate while continuing to work in their preferred development environments .
