挑战
艾姆哈特玻璃研究中心是玻璃容器行业设备、控制装置和零件的国际领先供应商，在瓶子制造过程中面临着挑战。该中心专注于开发增强的玻璃成型方法、提高自动化程度和提高产量，但在建模过程中一直在努力解决热、流体和空气问题的复杂性。高级机械工程师 Pierre Ngankeu 的任务是对设计概念进行多物理分析，重点关注成型过程中的流体动力学和传热。然而，建模和预处理非常耗时，每次模拟通常需要数天的时间。 Pierre 必须使用外国 CAD 数据，处理网格划分和密度问题，并在分析之前创建流域。此外，许多过程通常没有大量可用数据，这增加了准备模拟模型的复杂性。
关于客户
Emhart Glass 研究中心是 Bucher 公司 Emhart Glass 的一部分，是玻璃容器行业设备、控制装置和零件的国际领先供应商。该中心专注于开发增强的玻璃成型方法、提高自动化程度和提高产量。它包括一条完整的生产线，使 Emhart 工程师和研究人员能够在工业环境中测试新想法。然后，成功的概念可以转化为设备创新团队，以解决熔炉变化、玻璃性能变化和冷却风波动等挑战。
解决方案
为了应对这些挑战，Emhart Glass 实施了 ANSYS SpaceClaim，一种 3D 建模软件解决方案。 ANSYS SpaceClaim 与 ANSYS 的集成使 Pierre 在 ANSYS SpaceClaim 中所做的更改能够自动填充 ANSYS。这样，Pierre 就无需在开始准备模型进行分析之前从 Pro/ENGINEER 中提取信息并将该数据转换为 STEP 或 ACIS 文件。 ANSYS SpaceClaim 还简化了创建和编辑横截面设计的过程，这特别有益，因为许多设计都是旋转对称的。优化后，Pierre 可以使用 Pro/ENGINEER 将实体发送回设计团队。这种简化的流程显着减少了准备仿真模型所需的时间和复杂性，使 Pierre 能够更多地专注于分析新产品概念和解决客户挑战。

Smart Water Filtration Systems
Before working with Ayla Networks, Ozner was already using cloud connectivity to identify and solve water-filtration system malfunctions as well as to monitor filter cartridges for replacements.But, in June 2015, Ozner executives talked with Ayla about how the company might further improve its water systems with IoT technology. They liked what they heard from Ayla, but the executives needed to be sure that Ayla’s Agile IoT Platform provided the security and reliability Ozner required.

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
