In the second installment of the SCORG v2025 webinar series, hosted by PDM Analysis, the spotlight was on game-changing updates to the industry-leading SCORG™ software—specifically its support for Internally Geared Screw Machines (IGSM) and advancements in 3D CAD design. Delivered by Dr. Sham Rane and PhD Candidate Halil Lacevic, the session highlighted how SCORG continues to push the boundaries of rotary positive displacement machine design.
What’s New in SCORG v2025?
SCORG v2025 introduces a powerful suite of new features designed to streamline the design, analysis, and manufacturing of compressors, expanders, pumps, and vacuum pumps. Among the major highlights:
-
Support for IGSM Rotor Design: New tools allow for parametric generation and analysis of IGSM rotor profiles using a ‘pin-generation’ method. This enables users to calculate working chamber volumes, leakage areas, and port configurations with high precision.
-
Enhanced Thermodynamic Modeling: The updated multi-chamber model now includes thermodynamic calculations for IGSMs with and without liquid injection, plus contact force and stress analysis on rotors.
-
3D Design and CAD Integration: SCORG now supports full 3D visualization and export of compressor assemblies, including rotors, housings, and bearings. The new CAD export functionality supports formats like Inventor, DWG, STEP, and IGES, bridging the gap between design and manufacturing.
-
Modular Licensing: SCORG v2025 now offers flexible licensing options—SCORG-Thermo, SCORG-CFD, and SCORG-PACKAGE—tailored to specific user needs.
Demonstration Highlights
A live demo showcased how SCORG‘s new IGSM capabilities allow users to visualize rotor meshing and chamber volume changes during operation. The team also demonstrated how parametric designs can be exported into Autodesk Inventor for full assembly modeling and further mechanical design work.
Release v2025 also features new templates and extended manuals and tutorials.
Here are some visual examples of our new features as they are related to IGSM and the design module using SCORG;
You can try the demo version for free, but please be aware that the newest version to purchase has more functionality than the demo variant.
Also, you can check all SCORG features in SCORG alto which is a cloud platform hosted in Microsoft Azure, enabling you to design and analyse screw machines using the software SCORG. Register and explore the abilities of our software by choosing the trial licence at a discounted price.
