The software plays a key role in Kotchergenko\u2019s core service, which consists of using simulation tools to verify client\u2019s machinery and recommending how production might be increased while also taking requirements such as durability, strength and safety into account. By adopting Femap with NX Nastran, Kotchergenko is generating its models approximately 20 percent faster, as well as achieving substantial cost savings and gains in project quality and reliability.<BR \/><BR \/><A href=\"http:\/\/www.plm.automation.siemens.com\/en_us\/about_us\/success\/case_study.cfm?Component=209556&amp;ComponentTemplate=1481\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><IMG class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16458\" src=\"http:\/\/community.plm.automation.siemens.com\/legacyfs\/online\/wordpress\/images\/2013\/09\/Kotchergenko_01a.jpg\" alt=\"Kotchergenko fork lift structure modeled in Femap\" width=\"500\" height=\"224\" \/><\/A><BR \/><BR \/>You can read the full <a href=\"http:\/\/www.plm.automation.siemens.com\/en_us\/about_us\/success\/case_study.cfm?Component=209556&amp;ComponentTemplate=1481\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">case study<\/A> to find out more about how Kotchergenko uses Femap with NX Nastran to increase service offerings and gain a competitive edge.<BR \/><BR \/>&nbsp;<\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kotchergenko was founded in 1993 to fill a technological gap that existed between machinery and structural design.
