挑战
斯堪尼亚是一家国际商用车和发动机制造商,面临着加快设计和开发流程以生产更轻但结构和功能高效的组件设计的挑战。汽车和商用车行业在将新产品推向市场时面临着许多挑战,包括二氧化碳排放法规和客户对更高效车辆的需求。该市场还存在较高的竞争和定价压力,迫使开发团队加快开发进程,以缩短上市时间。斯堪尼亚的传统流程涉及原型的物理测试,这导致设计和工程部门之间存在许多迭代循环,从而减慢了开发流程。
关于客户
斯堪尼亚是一家国际商用车和发动机制造商。该公司总部位于瑞典,业务遍及 100 多个国家,在全球拥有约 38,600 名员工。斯堪尼亚在将新产品推向市场时面临着许多挑战,包括二氧化碳排放法规、客户对更高效车辆的需求、激烈的竞争和价格压力。这些挑战促使斯堪尼亚重新评估其当前流程并实施仿真驱动设计流程,以加快开发流程并生产更轻但结构和功能高效的组件设计。
解决方案
Scania 在开发链中使用solidThinking Inspire 实施了仿真驱动的设计流程。这使得设计人员能够通过实施前期模拟和优化来对设计工作承担更多责任。该过程首先由斯堪尼亚的设计师定义设计空间,应用载荷和其他已知边界条件,然后运行优化。 Inspire 生成的理想结构形状随后会传输到 CAD 系统中,以细化几何形状并运行首次结构分析。这一新流程允许设计人员在其 CAD 工具中处理结构任务,从而减少不同部门之间的迭代时间。这一新流程的最新示例涉及转向臂的重新设计,设计师使用 Inspire 创建多个设计方案,然后在 Catia 中进行完善和分析。最终设计被移交给 CAE 工程师进行验证并通过了所有必需的测试。

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.
