Forward-thinking machine builders are embracing new methodologies found within Intelligent Performance Engineering (IPE).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By using a combination of integrated design and simulation, multiphysics simulation, and closed-loop validation<\/a>, machine builders are designing more quickly, building better, and improving performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arriving at a final design sooner<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Bearings play a key role in reducing friction between moving parts, and PM-Bearings<\/a> in the Netherlands is at the leading edge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a worldwide supplier and integrator of linear and rotational bearings, the company spends a significant amount of time developing and improving its products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PM-Bearings used integrated design and simulation to encourage collaboration between designers, analysts, and production engineers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After implementing this change, they shortened the amount of time it took to get results from two weeks to a matter of minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watch this short webinar clip and learn the multitude of benefits they experienced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PM-Bearings benefits from Intelligent Performance Engineering<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A new solution enabled the company to move faster and give them a competitive edge over their competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Multiphysics simulation decreases costly prototypes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Picanol <\/a>has played a pioneering role in the weaving machine industry, so it was no surprise when they set out to build a more energy-efficient machine without sacrificing performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company achieved their goal and more when they produced the most energy-efficient weaving loom on the market by embracing multiphysics simulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They were able to optimize machine design early in the process, and as a result, they eliminated at least one complete prototype, saving both time and money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This short webinar clip outlines how they succeeded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using multiphysics simulation to design a more energy-efficient weaving machine<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As energy prices continue to rise, a more energy-efficient machine has a lower total cost of ownership, and this gives Picanol a significant competitive advantage in a competitive market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Improving performance with closed-loop validation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The most modern machine builders are always looking for ways to improve on what they\u2019ve built.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Homag<\/a> embraced closed-loop validation to increase operational speed without sacrificing quality in their wood processing equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through the use of Siemens’ software solutions, Homag was able to pinpoint areas where they could improve their machinery with faster speeds without sacrificing the quality their end customers expected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This short webinar clip provides a brief overview of Homag\u2019s achievements and how they made them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using closed-loop validation to improve machine performance<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Homag is embracing Industry 4.0 and the plethora of data associated with it to better serve their customers, reduce costs, and increase production efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choosing the right technology partner<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Making any change can be a challenge, which is why it\u2019s critical to find the right partner when shifting to Intelligent Performance Engineering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The right software and engineering services partner can be the difference between a smooth transition and a clumsy one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Find out some of the engineering services Siemens Digital Industries can provide to help in this short webinar clip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Partnering with the right software company is key to success<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Finding the right combination of software and support is invaluable when undergoing any kind of transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An in-depth look at Intelligent Performance Engineering<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Move faster and gain a competitive edge with Intelligent Performance Engineering (IPE), just like PM-Bearings, Picanol, and Homag experienced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
