Manufacturer of precision fluid-handling equipment, such as high-performance pumps. SolidWorks Simulation Benefits: Performed analysis of 206,866 tetrahedral elements in three-and-a-half hours Effect of Heat Sources on Machine Tool Modelħ Quizix Company: Challenge: SolidWorks Simulation Benefits: SolidWorks Simulation Benefits: Optimized the design to for cost and performance Immediately identified the cause of a part failure in the steering mechanism Easy to learn and use for immediate results and productivity A Lugli forkliftĦ National Technical University of AthensĬompany: Designs and manufactures mechanical systems, robotics, structures, and mechanisms for spacecraft and scientific instruments Challenge: Needed to study the effect of temperature differences on the accuracy of CNC machine tools. SolidWorks Simulation is so fast and easy to use that we were able to make the 20 FEA runs that were required to understand the problem and solve it.” Don Bartlett, Senior Staff Engineerĥ LUGLI Company: Challenge: SolidWorks Simulation Benefits:ĭesigns and manufactures forklifts and warehouse trucks Challenge: Stay ahead of the competition by continuing to create top of the line forklifts and trucks. SolidWorks Simulation Benefits: Helps improve productivity 60% reduction in stress on coupler Reduced project time from 1 month to 2 days FANUC Robotics utilizes SolidWorks Simulation to optimize their SolidWorks designs “The biggest advantage was timesaving over our previous methods.
Challenge: Improve their design efficiency and lower production costs by updating their design software. Company: Challenge:ĭesigns and manufactures industrial robots and robotic systems. ” Jack Van Heest, Engineer and Chief AnalystĤ FANUC Robotics N.A., Inc. "That means making sure the devices designed in-house will work effectively," SolidWorks Simulation Benefits: Improved safety by giving customers a time frame on when their machine would run out SolidWorks Simulation helps to identify the weak spots “I can show them where a part bends or twists, and identify the actual problem.
Challenge: The owners of older equipment prefer to design and build their own safety devices - in part because the commercial ones are expensive. Located in Holland, MI, automotive manufacturing equipment, including presses of all kinds, make up a healthy share of Aromech’s business. Presentation on theme: "SolidWorks Simulation Case Studies"- Presentation transcript:ģ SolidWorks Simulation helps to identify the weak spotsĪromech Company: Aromech, Inc., Holland, MI, designs and analyzes special machines for a host of different applications – machines used to make office furniture, aircraft components, test equipment, and even the hull of a boat, are just some of the design projects upon which the company has worked.
