关于客户
马勒是一家位于德国斯图加特的一级汽车系统供应商，在全球拥有超过 64,000 名员工，预计 2014 年销售额将超过 130 亿美元。该公司在全球设有 10 个不同的研发 (R&D) 中心，其中包括中国的研发中心、日本、巴西、英国、印度和美国。在北美，马勒 2013 年销售额超过 26 亿美元，拥有 29 个分支机构和 10,000 多名员工。马勒的所有业务部门均在该地区设有代表处：发动机系统和部件、过滤和发动机外围设备以及热管理。所有在北美拥有生产业务的轻型汽车和卡车原始设备制造商均由马勒供货。该公司通过其售后市场业务部门为独立备件市场提供服务。此外，马勒还为该地区的赛车运动客户提供服务。
挑战
马勒是一家领先的汽车系统供应商，在确保仿真结果报告一致、全面且更易于执行方面面临着挑战。该公司对活塞、连杆和销进行模拟，其中活塞代表了该小组的大部分工作。活塞的复杂性必须承受高温和巨大的惯性载荷，这在设计过程中引入了许多变量。六名不同的工程师创建的报告略有不同，导致向客户讲述模拟故事的方式有所不同。模拟要回答的主要问题是活塞是否能够通过发动机测试。这些测试非常昂贵，预生产活塞在放入发动机之前需要进行测试，以节省物理测试成本并实现更多设计迭代。轻质活塞、高效发动机、高负载四缸发动机、更多的可变性和不同的材料等因素进一步增加了评估的复杂性。
解决方案
Altair ProductDesign 团队建议实施 Automated Reporting Director (ARD)，以帮助马勒简化报告活动。 ARD 是一种可配置和可定制的报告解决方案，嵌入在 HyperView 中，并循环遍历所有定义的组和负载案例，为每个组合创建单个报告页面。 ARD 可自动检测结果最大值或热点、最佳视图选择、创建注释和图例，并在交互式选项卡中突出显示最有趣的结果。该工具也很灵活，允许分析师在将其导出为 PowerPoint 或其他所需格式之前逐步浏览每个页面。通过直观的用户界面，ARD 允许分析师根据给定标准对结果进行后处理，生成突出显示关键结果的交互式概述结果表，比较模型迭代之间的结果，并使用首选的可自定义报告模板导出结果。

Case Study
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.
