MUNICH, Germany, Aug 20, 2026 – Dexory has begun a pilot deployment of SimScale’s Engineering AI for mechanical engineering and product development involving its warehouse robots. Dexory will use the software to investigate structural component failures, test design variations and retrieve information from previous simulation projects.
The deployment builds on Dexory’s existing use of SimScale’s cloud simulation platform. Its objective is to reduce the time engineers spend investigating the root causes of structural failures and allow more simulation iterations during design phases.
The software will run parameter sweeps that test multiple design variables simultaneously. It will generate comparative results without requiring engineers to configure each simulation separately.
SimScale Engineering AI will also produce simulation reports for Dexory’s engineering teams to analyze, compare and share. A searchable repository will store information from earlier projects, including simulation methods and results, for use in subsequent work.
Dexory said the pilot will assess where AI agents are useful in engineering workflows and inform internal practices for future use.
The announcement cited a forecast that places the global warehouse robotics market at $117 billion by 2034, up from $14.7 billion in 2024.
“AI has a ‘blank sheet of paper’ problem in engineering because we’re still discovering where it can create the greatest value,” said Calum MacDougall, senior mechanical design engineer at Dexory. “This pilot isn’t just about solving today’s engineering challenges. It’s about understanding how AI will reshape engineering over the coming years and helping us discover where it can genuinely transform the way engineers work.”
“Our recent industry research found that many engineering teams are still defining how AI will fit into their engineering workflows, but forward-thinking companies are already investing to build that understanding fast,” said David Heiny, CEO at SimScale. “Engineering AI has proven its ability to automate simulation tasks, explore significantly more design options and help engineers make better decisions faster. By piloting these capabilities broadly today, companies like Dexory are helping shape the future of their engineering practices.”
