关于客户
宾夕法尼亚州立大学的学生太空计划实验室 (SSPL) 拥有独特的教育环境，本科生和研究生有机会设计、制造和集成太空系统。实践项目将课堂知识应用到现实世界的跨学科项目中，为学生提供完整设计周期的工作经验。 SSPL 项目由一个研究生小组指导，并涉及近 70 名本科生的贡献。该实验室参与了多个重要项目，包括旨在帮助研究太空天气的 OSIRIS-3U CubeSat 任务。
挑战
宾夕法尼亚州立大学的学生太空项目实验室 (SSPL) 为本科生和研究生提供设计、制造和集成真实工作空间系统的机会。然而，他们使用的设计工具套件 OrCAD 被证明是一个挑战。该系统速度缓慢且难以使用，特别是对于刚刚进入该领域的本科生来说。漫长的学习曲线和不直观的工作流程导致频繁出现错误，必须由更高级的工程师发现和纠正。这对于 OSIRIS-3U CubeSat 任务来说尤其成问题，这是一个复杂的项目，需要系统级、电气和机械设计工作来创建一颗用于研究空间天气的紧凑型卫星。该项目由三名研究生和近 70 名本科生指导，设计软件的可用性挑战是其完成的重大障碍。
解决方案
SSPL 转而使用 Altium Designer，这是一款设计工具套件，事实证明更加用户友好且高效。 Altium 提供的在线教程和 wiki 页面使过渡变得轻松，并且项目完成的质量和速度显着提高。新学生能够快速进行自我训练，通常在第一次坐在工作站前的几个小时内就可以设计出原理图。通用零件库是另一个主要优势，可以减少错误并提高生产率。该实验室能够直接从供应商进口零件，研究生可以定制此功能以满足其项目的特定系统要求。 Altium Designer 的封装向导对于确保物理封装封装正确至关重要，从而显着减少电路板布局错误。 AltiumLive 还可以通过 SSPL 中的十几个 Altium Designer 更轻松地支持许多学生，自动从云端提取首选项并为用户配置工作站。

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.
