Ansys Granta MI
Ansys Granta MI - Enterprise Materials Data Management Software
Ansys Granta MI is materials data management software. It stores, controls and analyses an organisation's materials data in one place, creating a single gold source that design, simulation and compliance teams can trust, built on Granta's materials reference data.
Integration with CAD, CAE and PLM systems puts the same approved data in front of every engineer.
Ansys Granta MI 2026 R1
- Connected Materials: a new Ansys-hosted materials data offering, available directly inside Discovery, Sherlock and Zemax OpticStudio.
- Better comparison and visualisation: compare up to 10 records with colour-coded differences, radar plots and Record Tree browsing.
- Battery calendering workflow: connects Synopsys QuantumATK, Granta MI and Ansys Rocky for electrode calendering simulation.

Ansys Granta MI Enterprise
Enterprise-wide materials data management: secure access and version control, material models from test data, restricted substance risk assessment, additive manufacturing templates, and CAD, CAE and PLM integration through MI Gateway and Enterprise Connect.
Ansys Granta MI Pro
An entry-level solution for smaller teams, with fast access to create, import, visualise and analyse materials data, integration with tools such as Creo, NX, HyperMesh and Ansys Workbench, and export to SOLIDWORKS.
Materials Reference Data, Search and Comparison
A reference database of more than 250,000 materials, advanced search, charting and comparison tools and a datasheet viewer support material decisions, and data can be imported from Granta Selector.
Granta Selector and Granta EduPack
Granta Selector supports material trade-offs for lighter, cheaper, tougher and more sustainable products. Granta EduPack is a teaching resource for materials education across engineering, design, science and sustainable development, offered at three levels.
Common Materials Data Consultation Topics
- Materials database set-up: structuring and importing existing test data.
- Simulation material models: deriving CAE material data from tests.
- Restricted substances: compliance risk across materials and parts.
- System integration: connecting approved data to CAD, CAE and PLM.
