关于客户
F.tech R&D North America成立于1947年，是一家获得世界级认证的Tier-1国际汽车系统供应商。该公司总部位于日本，在俄亥俄州特洛伊设有研发办公室，为其 OEM 合作伙伴提供一系列汽车零部件，包括副车架、拖曳臂、下控制臂和踏板。 F.tech北美研发中心拥有完整的内部研发能力，包括设计、CAE、原型制作和测试。它拥有自己的研发团队以及从事 CAE 和测试实验室验证的设计和工程服务团队。 F.tech R&D North America 的 CAE 团队专注于虚拟设计验证，并广泛使用仿真工具，包括 Altair 自己的 HyperWorks 套件。
挑战
F.tech R&D North America 是一家世界级认证的一级国际汽车系统供应商，在报告流程中面临着挑战。该公司利用 HyperView 来调查测试结果，利用数据为改进设计方法的决策提供信息。这些数据通常用于在开发过程中创建报告和演示文稿，使用 HyperView 生成的图像和动画来说明可能需要额外工作的组件的特定区域。然而，导出这些资产是一个高度手动的过程，需要加载结果、定位模型和截取屏幕截图。这非常耗时，并且占用了工程师专注于探索和解释结果的时间。 F.tech 北美研发中心希望找到一种方法使该过程自动化，以减少生成项目报告所需的时间。
解决方案
Altair ProductDesign 的企业解决方案小组 (ESG) 被要求提供解决方案。他们分两部分解决了报告问题。首先，他们评估了 F.tech R&D North America 通常用于生成报告的 50 种不同测试指标，并建议实施 Altair 的自动报告总监 (ARD) 来帮助简化报告活动。 ARD 直接集成到 HyperView 环境中，旨在消除与生成报告机制相关的繁琐且重复的任务。该解决方案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。 Altair ProductDesign 定制了 ARD，以满足全公司的最佳实践，并确保其能够在现有工作流程中无缝运行。然后，他们对 F.tech R&D North America 工程团队的主要成员进行了如何有效使用 HyperView 中的新面板的培训。

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.
