挑战
Stanley Black & Decker (SBD) 是一家手动工具、电动工具及相关配件的全球供应商，一直在寻找保持竞争优势并更快地将性能更好的产品推向市场的方法。该公司对优化其最畅销的电锤的锤机构设计特别感兴趣，并且知道他们需要基于计算机辅助工程 (CAE) 的方法。然而，他们一直使用的基于 CAE 的优化运行时间约为三周，不足以保持竞争力。 SBD 旨在将这一运行时间缩短至一个周末。该团队意识到他们需要更多的计算能力来推动所需的性能改进，但他们担心高性能计算 (HPC) 硬件/内核的成本、维护和支持复杂 HPC 系统的工作量以及充分利用计算能力的能力该硬件具有必要的软件许可证，以保持高利用率。
关于客户
Stanley Black & Decker (SBD) 是一家多元化的全球供应商，提供手动工具、电动工具及相关配件、机械通道和电子安全解决方案、医疗保健解决方案、工程紧固系统等。该公司提供创新、强大的工具，帮助世界各地的专业人士建造、维修和保护世界上最有价值的东西。 SBD 是工具和安全领域的领导者，旗下品牌包括 Stanley Tools、DEWALT、Mac Tools、Porter-Cable 等。其产品范围从机场门到住宅锁和门栓，再到救援被困地震幸存者的液压破碎机。
解决方案
SBD 考虑了三个领先 HPC 硬件提供商的报价，但仍然担心真正利用该系统所需的额外许可成本。 Altair 将 SBD 引入 HyperWorks Unlimited，这是一款用于 CAE 的完全托管 HPC 设备。该交钥匙设备包括预配置的 HPC 硬件和软件，可无限制地使用各种 Altair HyperWorks 应用程序以及用于 HPC 工作负载管理的 Altair PBS Works。 SBD 工程师进行了一项基准研究，证明 Radioss 与 Altair HyperStudy 结合使用在准确性和性能方面与他们一直使用的 LS-DYNA/optiSLang 解决方案相当。根据结果，SBD 决定继续使用 Altair HyperWorks Unlimited 解决方案。

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.
