挑战
Evenflo 是创新婴儿设备开发领域的全球领导者，面临着通过创新且易于使用的产品让儿童安全变得简单的挑战。该公司旨在通过工程和工业设计的结合来实现这一目标。设计过程中重点考虑的是安全性，但易用性和成本控制也是重要因素。眼前的挑战是重新设计汽车座椅释放手柄，这是将座椅外壳固定到座椅底座或婴儿车上的关键部件。重新设计的目标是改进样式并保持易用性，同时保持或降低相对于当前部件的成本。
解决方案
Evenflo 将 SolidThinking Inspire 纳入其设计流程中，以生成早期概念设计并协助工程和 ID 部门共同开发产品。为了使用 Inspire，团队需要一个封装空间和一组用于释放手柄的静态负载。由于这是替换零件，因此可以使用 Pro-E 中当前零件的简化版本轻松创建封装空间。手柄在其使用寿命期间可能遇到的碰撞和滥用负载是动态的，这意味着需要开发等效的静态负载。 Inspire 的初步结果显示，其质量和材料可以减少 30%。然后使用 CAD 开发设计并使用标准公司程序进行验证。 FDM 快速原型专为婴儿车和雪橇测试而构建。

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.
