挑战
Murray Inc. 是一家全球户外动力设备制造商，面临着重大挑战。该公司在失去其战略扫雪机零售商之一的业务之前，将其新产品 Power 2 Steer 扫雪机投入生产的机会很有限。 Power 2 Steer 采用独特的转向系统，需要新的离合器组件，需要评估整个扫雪机的各种组件和子系统对应力和偏转水平的影响。这包括驱动轴、轴承、副车架和钣金主机架。设计这些部件以获得必要的强度对于确保部件有足够的疲劳寿命而不增加过高的成本和材料至关重要。紧张的产品开发日程没有给大量的物理原型测试周期留下空间。
关于客户
Murray Inc. 是一家全球性的草坪、花园和户外动力设备制造商，产品包括除雪机、草坪拖拉机、手扶式割草机、汽油动力修边机、小型耕耘机和高轮修剪机。该公司总部位于田纳西州布伦特伍德，以提供为消费者提供最新技术、最耐用性和物超所值的最佳设计的产品而自豪。其产品由 Briggs & Stratton 的发动机驱动，Briggs & Stratton 是世界上最大的户外动力设备风冷汽油发动机生产商。Murray 的最新产品之一是 Power 2 Steer，这是一款具有独特转向系统的重型除雪机。
解决方案
为了满足生产期限，Murray 求助于 ITI Manta，对关键部件和子系统的结构和设计进行工程分析。 ITI Manta 是产品开发咨询公司 International TechneGroup Incorporated (ITI) 旗下的一家企业，它使用 ANSYS Mechanical 通过仿真驱动的设计方法确定 von Mises 应力和结构变形。这种方法可以在创建详细设计和构建第一个原型之前的概念开发阶段的早期阶段发现缺陷、探索替代方案并改进产品性能。基于最小化应力和变形水平来优化部件设计，从而优化目标疲劳寿命。然后构建硬件原型来验证设计。

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.
