CAE Engineering Solutions

Embrace engineering improvements

There have been radical changes in the way products are designed, made, and used. This disruption has created an opportunity for modern mechanical engineers.

The right toolkit gives you the ability to innovate more quickly. In addition, you can meet consumer demands for customised products and get the product out the door faster. The understanding of how products are used boosts customer satisfaction and facilitates the next version of the design.

Overcoming engineering challenges with the right CAE software

For most businesses, a major obstacle to innovation is time. It’s critical to understand the technology you need to streamline your workflow, so you can create the time needed to unlock innovation.

As you can imagine, there are numerous time-saving measures that can significantly impact multiple stages of your workflow. So, we’ve detailed some of the more common areas:

• As you know, the world of engineering contains thousands of files. What you may not realise is how much time your business is wasting on managing them. Wasted time can come from searching, design reuse, approvals and duplicate files.
• How much time do you spend on repetitive tasks in the design process? Chances are, there are ways to automate those tasks to save time.

If you’re still importing and translating files from other CAD systems, you’re wasting precious time and risking late deliverables. Did you know there is software that can open files from other CAD systems and use those models in your assemblies? The models even update when changes are made from the native CAD application.

• Updating your hardware is arguably the easiest and fastest path toward winning back the time you can use for innovation. Why? Over the past seven years, the increase in performance for processors and graphics processing units has increased exponentially. They are not merely double or triple the speed. We’re talking about 50-100 times faster compared to 10 years ago!
• Currently, engineers spend a whopping 30% of their time creating documentation for manufacturing. The crucial question for engineers to ask is whether it is necessary to create a separate 2D drawing document for every single part.
• It used to be that creating and modifying complex model geometry was extremely difficult. Fast forward to today when the advancements in surface modelling have improved to the point where just about any shape can be created. And best of all, you no longer need an advanced level of knowledge.
