EMCoS

What EMCoS does

EMCoS (EM Consulting and Software), founded in 2001 and headquartered in Tbilisi, Georgia, develops specialized electromagnetic (EM) simulation software targeting electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), electromagnetic interference (EMI), and antenna analysis. Its flagship platform, EMCoS Studio, integrates multiple proprietary solvers — TriD Full-Wave Method of Moments (MoM), Hybrid MTL/3D PEEC, Low-Frequency Electric Field (LFEF), Low-Frequency Magnetic Field (LFMF), and static / magnetostatic solvers (Magneticus) — alongside complementary products Harness Studio (cable harness design and analysis), EMC Expert (rule-based EMC compliance verification), ReMesh (mesh processing), and EMCoS SimDAT (post-processing and visualization with an embedded EMScript automation language). The platform supports interoperability with major mechanical CAD formats (CATIA V5, STEP, IGES, NX, JT, NASTRAN, ACIS, ODB++), and its analysis capabilities span automotive EMC, PCB and power-electronics EMC, antenna design (including 5G mmWave), reverberation chamber testing, human exposure to EM fields (ICNIRP compliance), aerospace EMC, and naval magnetic signature analysis.

The company serves large automotive manufacturers and their tier-1 suppliers as its primary customer base, with disclosed end users including BMW, Audi, Renault (since 2007), and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, alongside research and consulting customers such as Missouri University of Science and Technology (15+ year relationship) and Silicon Austria Labs. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time and subscription software licenses (EMCoS Studio, Harness Studio, EMC Expert, ReMesh, SimDAT) and complementary professional services including EMC/antenna consultation projects (conducted either at EMCoS's Tbilisi headquarters or on-site at customer locations), custom training, and freemium student/educational licensing. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.

EMCoS distributes through a combination of wholly-owned regional subsidiaries — EMCoS EU GmbH in Düsseldorf, Germany and EMCoS West Europe SARL in Versailles, France — and a network of authorized distributors covering China (Shanghai Holly-wave), South Korea (Huwin), Japan (JSOL Corporation), India (SOLUZIA Consulting), and Turkey (TESTUPS Elektronik). The firm remains privately held with no disclosed VC or PE backing and conducts annual Users' Meetings (Nuremberg 2011, 2016, 2018; Seoul 2024) plus regular participation in industry conferences (EMC Europe, EuMW, EuCAP, IEEE EMC Symposiums, EMV, Asia-Pacific EMC Week) as its primary channels for engagement with the EMC engineering community.

Core offering

EMCoS develops and sells electromagnetic simulation software, centered on the EMCoS Studio platform, which integrates proprietary solvers (MoM, hybrid MTL/3D PEEC, LFEF, LFMF, magnetostatic) for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), antenna analysis, cable harness, and PCB modeling. The portfolio also includes Harness Studio, EMC Expert, ReMesh, and EMCoS SimDAT as complementary tools, supplemented by paid EMC and antenna consultation services delivered on-site or at the company's headquarters in Georgia.

Product overview

EMCoS offers a unified platform-plus-modules product architecture centered on EMCoS Studio, which consolidates electromagnetic simulation capabilities previously delivered as separate products (EMC Studio, EMCoS PCB VLab, EMCoS Antenna VLab) into a single integrated environment. The product portfolio includes: EMCoS Studio (flagship unified simulation platform with multiple solvers: TriD MoM, Hybrid MTL/3D PEEC, LFEF, LFMF, LF Magnetic Field, and Static solvers); Harness Studio (dedicated cable harness design and analysis tool with CAD import, expert system, and schematic modules); EMC Expert (rule-based EMC design verification tool); ReMesh (mesh processing utility); and EMCoS SimDAT (post-processing and visualization with FFT analysis, human exposure analysis, and EMScript automation). Legacy products EMCoS Antenna VLab and EMCoS PCB VLab have been merged into EMCoS Studio. EMCoS also provides specialized consultation and training services for EMC and antenna engineering projects.

Direct peers

• Remcom: Remcom's XFdtd (FDTD-based full-wave EM) and Wireless InSite (ray-tracing) are specialized tools used in antenna design, EMC, and electromagnetic environment analysis — closely mirroring EMCoS's niche focus. Remcom is a similar-size specialist with comparable target customers in defense, automotive, and academia.
• Sonnet Software: Sonnet provides high-frequency planar EM analysis (MoM) used for RF/microwave PCB and module simulation. It is a smaller specialist comparable to EMCoS in serving antenna, microwave, and high-speed electronics engineers with focused, method-of-moments tooling.
• Electro Magnetic Applications (EMA): EMA combines 3D EM simulation software (EMA3D Charge, EMA3D Cable) with EMC consulting services for aerospace, automotive, and defense — a hybrid software-plus-services model almost identical to EMCoS. EMA is a direct peer in the EMC simulation-and-consulting niche.

Broad incumbents

• ANSYS: ANSYS is the dominant CAE platform vendor with HFSS for full-wave 3D EM simulation and SIwave for PCB/signal-integrity EMC. It is the broadest incumbent competitor to EMCoS in automotive EM/EMC simulation, offering a much wider multiphysics suite but with less specialized automotive harness workflows.
• COMSOL: COMSOL Multiphysics with its RF Module supports electromagnetic wave and EMC simulations through FEM-based solvers. While broader in scope, it competes with EMCoS Studio in antenna design, PCB, and multiphysics EMC workflows at OEMs and research institutions.
• Dassault Systèmes (SIMULIA / CST Studio Suite): Dassault's SIMULIA portfolio, anchored by CST Studio Suite for 3D EM simulation, competes directly with EMCoS Studio across antenna, EMC, and PCB workflows. As a major PLM/CAE platform vendor it bundles EM tools into much broader product development suites sold to the same automotive and aerospace OEMs.
• Altair (FEKO): Altair's FEKO is a MoM-based EM simulation solver widely used for antenna placement, RCS, and EMC analysis in automotive and aerospace — directly overlapping EMCoS's Method-of-Moments-based solver portfolio. Altair adds a broader simulation platform (HyperWorks) that competes for the same OEM CAE budget.
• Cadence Design Systems (AWR / Clarity): Cadence's AWR Microwave Office and Clarity 3D EM solver target RF/microwave and high-speed electronics simulation, including automotive radar and PCB EMC. It competes with EMCoS Studio for antenna, PCB, and signal-integrity workloads inside Tier-1 suppliers and OEMs.
• ESI Group: ESI Group provides virtual prototyping software for manufacturing and electromagnetic applications, overlapping EMCoS's antenna and cable-harness workflows in automotive and aerospace. As a broader PLM-grade simulation vendor, it competes for similar OEM and supplier budgets.
• Keysight Technologies (PathWave / EMPro): Keysight's EMPro and PathWave design tools address 3D EM and PCB EMC simulation, with strong ties to its test and measurement instrumentation. It competes with EMCoS in automotive radar, 5G, and PCB EMC simulation where validation against physical instruments is valued.
