挑战
INTECH DMLS 是印度金属 DMLS 3D 打印领域的领导者，面临着减轻卫星上相机支架重量的挑战。该公司需要一次就获得正确的重量，从而消除原型迭代的需要。这是一个独特的挑战，因为该公司没有犯错误和迭代的奢侈。该团队必须专注于产品设计优化、分析、机械完整性、传热和其他标准，同时开发仿生、动态和蜂窝结构并对其产品进行轻量化分析。相机支架必须重量轻，但仍能承受预定的负载并有助于卫星的平稳运行。客户还希望支架具有特定的重量（不太轻也不太重）并且足够坚固以承受动态负载。
关于客户
INTECH DMLS 是印度金属基 DMLS 3D 打印领域的远见者。公司拥有富有创意的设计团队、缜密的分析团队、专门的机加工车间、精确的后处理设施以及精干的质量控制服务团队。凭借 30 多年的冶金专业知识和 25 年的机械加工专业知识，INTECH DMLS 已成为印度金属增材制造行业的领导者。该公司提供从概念设计到全功能金属基生产零件的完整解决方案，并为航空航天、汽车、工具和模具、快速原型制造、通用工程和医疗行业制造精密组件。
解决方案
为了应对这一挑战，INTECH DMLS 决定利用仿真作为标准流程来排除错误，并投资 Altair HyperWorks 来实现其仿真需求。使用 Altair HyperWorks 进行仿真在优化产品设计方面发挥了至关重要的作用。该团队利用仿真开发了仿生、动态和蜂窝结构，并对项目进行了重量优化。他们在开发周期的早期进行了所需的各种分析，以确保他们第一次就做对了。该团队验证了机械完整性及其工作情况，并检查了 3D 打印所需的支撑。该团队还检查并确保了传热方面的各种参数。应对挑战的关键解决方案是使用 Altair HyperWorks 进行拓扑优化和结构分析。 Altair OptiStruct 是用于项目分析的主要求解器，Altair Inspire 用于早期概念生成和分析，以实现产品相对于仿生形状的验证设计。

Integral Plant Maintenance
Mercedes-Benz and his partner GAZ chose Siemens to be its maintenance partner at a new engine plant in Yaroslavl, Russia. The new plant offers a capacity to manufacture diesel engines for the Russian market, for locally produced Sprinter Classic. In addition to engines for the local market, the Yaroslavl plant will also produce spare parts. Mercedes-Benz Russia and his partner needed a service partner in order to ensure the operation of these lines in a maintenance partnership arrangement. The challenges included coordinating the entire maintenance management operation, in particular inspections, corrective and predictive maintenance activities, and the optimizing spare parts management. Siemens developed a customized maintenance solution that includes all electronic and mechanical maintenance activities (Integral Plant Maintenance).
