关于客户
Mabe 是一家总部位于墨西哥的国际家电公司,成立于 1946 年。该公司设计、生产和分销各种家用电器,例如洗衣机、烘干机、炉灶、冰箱、空调、微波炉等。自 2006 年以来一直使用 Altair 技术来更快地开发更好的产品。该公司已将洗衣机的容量提高了 35%,将脱水速度提高了 24%,同时将每立方英尺的成本降低了 10%。他们还将能源系数提高了 24%,将水系数提高了 52%,同时将产品开发周期时间缩短了 25%。
挑战
Mabe 是一家总部位于墨西哥的国际家电公司,面临着通过模拟子系统交互来提高洗衣机性能的挑战。该公司的目标是提高洗衣机的容量和转速,同时降低每立方英尺的成本。他们还寻求改善机器的能源和水因素,并缩短产品开发周期时间。 Mabe 自 2006 年以来一直使用 Altair 技术进行结构分析以及冲击和跌落测试模拟。然而,他们从 Altair 的多学科方法中看到了增加价值的机会,并旨在利用不断提高的保真度和范围的模拟带来的好处。
解决方案
为了满足立轴机器不断增长的需求和不断变化的工程要求,Mabe 开始使用 Altair MotionSolve 来模拟洗衣机滚筒的运动动力学,包括平衡环和悬挂系统。使用理想化的电机模型来定义洗衣机在搅拌和旋转循环期间的各种旋转速度。然后,Mabe 消除了这种电机理想化,并开始使用 Altair Activate 基于框图方法进行详细的一维 (1D) 电机控制建模,并通过与 Altair MotionSolve 耦合作为多学科系统级仿真的集成平台。 Mabe 还开始对悬架系统中与弹簧相关的运动动力学进行建模。该公司使用 Altair Activate 等现代系统仿真技术来模拟洗衣机篮以理想速度旋转,而不管电机所需的负载重量、扭矩和功率如何。

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.

Premium Appliance Producer Innovates with Internet of Everything
Sub-Zero faced the largest product launch in the company’s history:It wanted to launch 60 new products as scheduled while simultaneously opening a new “greenfield” production facility, yet still adhering to stringent quality requirements and manage issues from new supply-chain partners. A the same time, it wanted to increase staff productivity time and collaboration while reducing travel and costs.
