On SUR/FIN last week, dr. Alan Rose presented the results of an engineering optimization project with Ingersoll Rand. Despite the impact of the current economy on manufacturing, increasing interest in Elsyca’s technology and capabilities was noted in terms of costs savings and environmental benefits.
Alan explained how Elsyca’s technology was used to effectively deliver a virtual plating plant with the goal to design a single rack suited for decorative Cr plating of 10 different door handle designs.
A trial and error approach of building and testing racks for all 10 different handle designs and a range of different decorative surface finishing options would be inconceivable as it would be far too consuming in terms of lead time, hardware prototype racks, energy and manpower efforts, incurring large cost and time penalties. For such a wide range of part designs and surface finishing options, Computer Aided Engineering is definitely the answer to maximize productivity.
