关于客户
摩托罗拉是全球通信领导者，它已将无处不在的手机转变为当今的生活通用遥控器。该公司彻底改变了宽带、嵌入式系统和无线网络。该公司于 1943 年为美国陆军率先推出了第一台便携式双向无线电，现在可以帮助个人在家里、汽车、工作场所以及任何地方接触到他们需要的人、物和信息。如今摩托罗拉开发的手机极其复杂，具有多个印刷电路板和大型多功能液晶显示器 (LCD)。它们还能够支持多种数据协议，例如码分多址 (CDMA)、全球移动通信系统 (GSM) 和全球微波接入互操作性 (WiMAX) – 所有这些都在一个时尚的手持设备中实现。
挑战
全球通信领导者摩托罗拉面临着开发日益复杂的手机的挑战，这些手机支持多种数据协议并且能够承受恶劣的使用。该公司受到设计周期缩短、产品复杂性增加和利润率下降的推动。 1998 年需要 18 个月的设计周期现在正朝着六个月的目标迈进，以满足关键业务产品的发布和固定的发货日期。为了保持健康的利润率，摩托罗拉必须降低产品的总体生产成本。该公司还需要在下一代手机上架之前充分了解“现实世界”的可靠性。这需要捕获产品寿命行为，预测需要改进的领域，并在大大缩短的时间内生成高质量的产品。
解决方案
为了应对这些挑战，摩托罗拉在设计周期的早期增加了计算机辅助工程 (CAE) 的使用。该公司正在使用 Altair HyperWorks 进行前期仿真和原型测试，以协助开发过程。这种方法使该公司能够捕捉产品生命周期的行为，预测需要改进的领域，并在大大缩短的时间内生产出高质量的产品。先进 CAE 软件的使用和定制简化了机械原型流程，同时大大提高了设计的稳健性。仿真时间的显着缩短使摩托罗拉工程师能够在开发周期的早期发现并纠正潜在问题。缩短仿真周期时间对于缩短上市时间也至关重要，这反过来又对公司的利润产生积极影响。

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.
