关于客户
Dimensions Furniture, Inc. 是一家家具设计商和制造商，主要为互联网和目录零售商提供服务。与需求较少型号但数量较多的大型零售商不同，这些零售商需要种类繁多但数量较少的型号。这种独特的分销模式给Dimensions Furniture带来了挑战，因为它需要他们设计大量的模型。在使用 Evolve 之前，该公司主要在 2D 环境中使用 Adobe Illustrator 等工具进行初始设计，并使用 Adobe Photoshop 等工具应用材质。然而，为了满足多种模型的需求，他们需要更高效、更有创意的设计工具。
挑战
Dimensions Furniture, Inc. 是一家家具设计和制造商，面临着独特的挑战。他们的主要客户是互联网和基于目录的零售商，他们需要多种型号但数量较少的产品。这与大型零售商形成鲜明对比，大型零售商需要的型号较少，但数量较多。为了满足这一需求，Dimensions 需要设计大量新模型。然而，他们现有的设计流程主要涉及 Adobe Illustrator 和 Photoshop 等 2D 工具，效率不够高，无法生产出所需的设计量。他们需要一种更好的设计工具，不仅要高效，还要允许更自由的创造力。
解决方案
Dimensions Furniture 决定将 SolidThinking Evolve 纳入其设计流程。选择该工具是因为它专注于工业设计及其内置渲染功能，这对 Dimensions 团队的艺术背景很有吸引力。该工具用于设计和渲染家具产品，以向买家展示并移交给制造团队。在进行初始设计时，客户会提供“灵感图像”，作为特定产品设计的起点。 Evolve 的构造树历史功能使团队能够根据买家反馈无缝返回并编辑模型，而无需重新开始该过程。这是加快他们的时间表的关键。

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.
