关于客户
自 1958 年以来,Team Penske 一直是美国赛车运动、赛车和胜利领域的知名品牌。经过 45 年的赛车生涯,赢得了 115 场印地赛车胜利,其中包括创纪录的 12 次印地 500 场胜利,Team Penske 开始了一项激动人心的新挑战:进入印地赛车联盟(IRL)全职。这意味着在 15 条不同的赛道上使用不同的设备进行比赛。设计团队由技术总监 Nigel Beresford 领导,由八名应届毕业生和经验丰富的赛车设计师组成。该团队按照一套新的严格规则运作,这些规则管理着在 IRL 参赛的汽车的制造。
挑战
Team Penske 是美国赛车运动的领头羊,当他们决定全职加入印地赛车联盟 (IRL) 时,他们面临着重大挑战。 IRL 对参加联赛的赛车的制造制定了严格的规则。由技术总监 Nigel Beresford 领导的设计团队必须在非常严格的车身设计标准下工作,并且可以改变的内容受到限制。重大改动是不可能的,因为竞争汽车必须使用三个制造商之一的底盘和相同的变速箱。时间因素增加了复杂性。赛季之间只有五个月的时间间隔,赛车必须到达第一场比赛并进行测试并准备获胜。淡季期间的设计变更也非常有限,汽车必须在一月份之前准备好进行测试。该团队没有时间进行备份计划或犯错误,必须一次就把设计做好,才能为团队提供最佳性能。
解决方案
为了克服这些挑战,设计团队使用 Pro/ENGINEER 作为主要设计程序,在 HP C3700 硬件上运行,并使用 ANSYS 有限元分析 (FEA) 来测试设计更改。 ANSYS 允许工程师在产品或零件开发的设计阶段利用基本分析功能,从而显着缩短了上市时间。该计划为设计人员提供了相同的基础分析技术,这些技术随后将用于详细的产品认证,使他们能够尽早做出有关设计、材料和制造的明智决策。使用 ANSYS,赛车被分解为许多简单的小块,称为元素。每个单独元素的行为都用一组相对简单的方程来描述。然后使用该软件来求解这一大组联立方程。 FEA 软件可以从该解决方案中提取各个元素的行为。这种方法是处理复杂边界的唯一经过验证的方法,并为“现实世界”的基于物理的问题提供了有效的解决方案。

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).

Advanced Elastomer Systems Upgrades Production
In order to maintain its share of the international market for thermoplastic elastomers AES recently expanded its Florida plant by adding a new production line. While the existing lines were operating satisfactorily using a PROVOX distributed control system with traditional analog I/O, AES wanted advanced technology on the new line for greater economy, efficiency, and reliability. AES officials were anxious to get this line into production to meet incoming orders, but two hurricanes slowed construction.
