挑战
全球汽车零部件制造商 U-Shin 在汽车死锁销的压铸仿真、结果分析和设计优化方面面临挑战。该公司专注于汽车系统电器和机电一体化，生产各种产品，包括锁具、电子转向柱锁、气候控制面板、门锁、无钥匙进入、门把手、开关、电源关闭系统和后部访问模块。其中许多零件都是用锌基合金 Zamak 制造的。 U-Shin 的锌合金铸造厂是欧洲最大的锌合金铸造厂之一，每天生产约 10 吨锌合金。该公司面临着每年优化 100 多种工具的挑战，这一过程对于减少时间和成本以及为汽车行业客户提供可靠的解决方案至关重要。
解决方案
为了应对这一挑战，U-Shin 采用solidThinking Click2Cast 来执行测试和优化。该软件使 U-Shin 能够模拟、观察并更好地了解 Zamak 的流动和材料特性，这对于生产高质量和可靠的零件至关重要。 Click2Cast 提供的广泛材料数据库使 U-Shin 能够模拟各种零件在各种应力下的铸造过程。 U-Shin 的项目之一涉及分析汽车死锁销的故障，并根据 Click2Cast 中的仿真结果重新设计零件。死锁销的失效点发生在振动试验过程中。 U-Shin 继续在多个汽车项目中使用 Click2Cast，使公司能够更好地预测、修改和改进设计。

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.
