关于客户
General Pattern 是一家拥有 90 年历史的公司，专门从事原型设计、模具制造和快速制造。该公司总部位于明尼苏达州布莱恩，最初为 Tonka、Hasbro 和 Mattel 等玩具公司工作。然而，随着行业的转变，General Pattern 也发生了变化，专注于汽车行业，后来为各个市场的广泛客户提供多元化的服务。如今，该公司拥有 150 多名员工，拥有 12 家工厂，并提供广泛的功能，包括 CNC 铣削、注塑成型、热成型、泡沫成型等。
挑战
General Pattern 是一家原型、模具和快速制造公司，其一位来自消费品行业的客户需要一种比传统制造方法更高效、更快速且更具成本效益的方法来创建原型和最终用途零件，因此面临着挑战。该公司决定投资惠普的Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) 3D打印技术，这导致订单激增。订单的涌入需要一种更有效的方法来管理报价和订单输入等前端流程。 General Pattern 寻求一种易于使用、最大限度地减少员工培训并熟悉 HP 技术的细微差别的软件解决方案，以开发准确且具有竞争力的定价模型。
解决方案
General Pattern 在展示了 DigiFabster 的软件解决方案的功能后选择了该解决方案。该软件为特定客户快速创建专用内联网页面的能力以及定价配置的简便性给该公司留下了特别深刻的印象。 DigiFabster 在惠普技术方面的经验及其软件即服务 (SaaS) 业务模式也是做出这一决定的关键因素。该软件允许 General Pattern 在几乎任何情况下模仿他们的离线定价模型。该公司迅速投资并实施了新的在线报价和订单输入软件解决方案，根据其特定需求进行定制，并将这一新功能传达给客户。

Case Study
Integral Plant Maintenance
Mercedes-Benz and his partner GAZ chose Siemens to be its maintenance partner at a new engine plant in Yaroslavl, Russia. The new plant offers a capacity to manufacture diesel engines for the Russian market, for locally produced Sprinter Classic. In addition to engines for the local market, the Yaroslavl plant will also produce spare parts. Mercedes-Benz Russia and his partner needed a service partner in order to ensure the operation of these lines in a maintenance partnership arrangement. The challenges included coordinating the entire maintenance management operation, in particular inspections, corrective and predictive maintenance activities, and the optimizing spare parts management. Siemens developed a customized maintenance solution that includes all electronic and mechanical maintenance activities (Integral Plant Maintenance).

Monitoring of Pressure Pumps in Automotive Industry
A large German/American producer of auto parts uses high-pressure pumps to deburr machined parts as a part of its production and quality check process. They decided to monitor these pumps to make sure they work properly and that they can see any indications leading to a potential failure before it affects their process.
Case Study
Underground Mining Safety
The goal was to produce a safety system to monitor and support underground mining operations; existing systems were either too simple (i.e. phone line) or overly complex and expensive, inhibiting deployment, and providing little-to-no support in event of an accident. Given the dangerous nature of the mining work environment and the strict regulations placed on the industry, the solution would have to comply with Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) regulations. Yet the product needed to allow for simple deployment to truly be a groundbreaking solution - increasing miner safety and changing daily operations for the better.
