关于客户
CLAAS 是一家总部位于德国的公司，是世界领先的农业机械制造商之一。该公司是欧洲联合收割机市场的领导者，也是全球第一大青贮收割机生产商。 CLAAS 在 140 多个国家开展业务，提供多样化的产品线，以满足农业行业的不同需求。该公司致力于不断改进其产品，以提高性能、可靠性和客户满意度，同时降低生产和维修成本。
挑战
CLAAS 是一家领先的农业机械制造商，面临着降低收割机滚刀轮毂组件系统的生产和维修成本的挑战。现有系统虽然成功且经过现场验证，但仍被确定为重新设计的候选系统，以提高盈利能力和客户满意度。重新设计的主要目标是在不影响现有组件设计刚性的情况下，使单个卷轴轮毂更易于更换，从而提高可维护性。现有设计有许多焊接搭接接头，可提供增强的刚度，这是新设计中保持的关键因素。面临的挑战是找到一种独特的加固珠图案，在使用相同的材料和包装封套的情况下满足重新设计的目标。
解决方案
为了实现重新设计目标，CLAAS 转向 Altair OptiStruct 设计优化软件。利用 OptiStruct 的形貌优化功能来定义满足刚度目标的最佳增强筋图案。该软件为新的卷轴轮毂设计提供了最佳的焊珠图案布局，然后 CLAAS 模具工程师使用该布局来创建发布级设计。新设计将装配数量从八个零件显着减少到仅两个，从而减少了生产中昂贵的焊接工艺并提高了装配效率。新设计还简化了使用中的维护，因为每个卷轴轮毂现在都可以独立拆卸，而无需拆卸整个系统。

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.
