“We are relying on our strategic use of CFD simulation to help us beat our competition to market with better performing pumps, and increase market share.”

"We use the Solid Edge assembly model to find problems before we get to the first prototype.This has reduced development costs and time because we get it right the first time."

"The use of NX CAE simulation tools was valuable in providing insight into the deformations and locations of stresses in a valve spring. It was this critical understanding that helped us re-engineer springs that wouldn’t fail during the punishing duty cycles that our engines are subjected to on the speedway."

“In only a few months of using NX, we achieved the same lead time as the previous solution. Then we shortened it further in the following months, also thanks to intensive training and support from Siemens PLM Software specialists.”

“Using Solid Edge, overall productivity has increased by 20 percent, as the company is now able to manufacture a single gearbox in 30 days, which compares with 40 to 45 days under the company’s prior process. Similarly, product turnaround has increased from 15 to 20 new products per year to …

“Another key improvement is the ability of Solid Edge to enable the company’s product managers to quote a price for a product based on its projected weight.”

“With trusted and strong CAE solution partners, we can concentrate on highspeed design/ analysis, streamlined compliance with industry standards and deliver on expectations. Business is good and growing.”

“Now, with the help of Teamcenter, all subsidiaries can access the same database as the mother company. Everyone can work with the same design rules, while the headquarters can monitor the activity of our subsidiaries and guide them to the best solution. Ultimately, the solutions they develop can be re-used, …

“Following the Teamcenter implementation...the generation of item codes for components and subassemblies was entrusted to the engineering department. This was a momentous change, because designers automatically generate the item code using Teamcenter as they develop the CAD model. The information is then released to SAP via a workflow.”

“LMS Testing Solutions help us conduct complex processes more effectively and efficiently. With the LMS solutions and LMS technical team, we have extra flexibility to get the material properties faster.”

“Oven design time has been slashed in half with Solid Edge, but the benefits of using the software for sales and marketing are also outstanding.”

"The ramp-up time has been shortened considerably due to simulation. Manufacturing resources can be provided trouble-free, and the necessary reworks made prior to start of production decreased by more than 50 percent. Major errors do not even occur anymore. This is absolutely necessary, as today’s typical deadlines and quality standards …

“Our engineers’ needs to be creative, develop the most innovative solutions and, at the same time, meet strict industry standards are well supported by using Femap with NX Nastran.”

“Our CAD/CAM investments have been economically profitable. By immensely reducing design and time, we have not only cut costs but also improved our flexibility. Now we meet the requirements of our customers faster and more efficiently.”

"NX will be used continuously for teaching purposes. At the same time we trust that new projects will come up that will enable us to use the NX system in practice."
