About The Customer
Comatec Oy is a company with extensive expertise in mechanical and electrical design. They provide engineering services for the industrial machinery sector. The company excels in design related to mechanical engineering for mobile machinery such as steel constructions, transmissions, actuators, hydraulics, cabins, and electrics. They handle various projects from customers that present complicated boundary conditions, loadings, and nonlinearities. The company is headquartered in Finland and is known for its commitment to providing high-quality engineering solutions to its clients.
The Challenge
Comatec Oy, a company providing engineering services for the industrial machinery sector, was facing several challenges in their product design and optimization process. They were dealing with complex projects from customers that presented complicated boundary conditions, loadings, and nonlinearities. The company was struggling to efficiently import 3-D models from various CAD applications into simulation tools. They also had to handle large assemblies with many configurations, which was a complex task. Evaluating stress, vibration, and fatigue for mechanical and thermal loadings was another challenge they faced. Additionally, they needed to quickly obtain and report results to customers, which was proving to be time-consuming and inefficient.
The Solution
To overcome these challenges, Comatec Oy deployed ANSYS Structural and ANSYS Professional tools within the ANSYS Workbench platform. This allowed them to robustly import 3-D CAD assemblies via ANSYS DesignModeler software for use with simulation tools from ANSYS. The platform provided easy access to high-end meshing and automatic contact capabilities, which helped in handling large assemblies. The 64-bit version of the ANSYS solver significantly reduced total solution times, making the process more efficient. The tools also helped in efficiently identifying critical areas for stress, deformation, vibration, and cyclic service. Furthermore, the company was able to routinely evaluate products early in the design phase to avoid costly mistakes. The platform also enabled them to quickly generate and deliver reports to their customers.
