The realized progress advances the state of the art in several aspects:                                               

  • Electric machine design process including electromagnetic finite element computation, winding design, and post-processing are available on a pay-per-use basis as a cloud solution. To the knowledge of the experiment partners, such a solution has never before been presented.
  • Seamless, automated creation of production data avoids data handover errors and provides fast transition from simulation and design to manufacturing of motor prototypes. The full parametric manner of realization also provides a feature never available before.
  • The capability to bring a customer requirement in the form of a motor specification to a fully functional motor prototype within one week is a revolutionary USP for Hanning. Despite the fact that this capability still needs to be demonstrated in real life, the steps taken into this direction have greatly improved Hanning’s process know-how and agility.

CETMA was able to exploit the possibilities that customized simulation offers to SME’s specialized in boat hulls manufacturing. Thanks to cloud resources, enough power computing is available to analyze different scenarios in a few days instead of several weeks.
Designers of CATMARINE and SKA are now able to achieve high-quality products by analyzing different manufacturing scenarios without wasting time, money and material. The platform is able to optimize the resin injections points/vents and verify the presence of defects in the final product, thus ensuring a complete and correct mold-filling.

Tools developed and deployed on CloudiFacturing platform during this experiment allow end-users who operate water quenches to derive operational conditions of the water quench and thus, increase precision and repeatability of the process and decrease its dependence on the experience of the operator. The outcomes of the experiment also bring new knowledge to the whole process. Additionally, the developed technologies allow using numerical modeling and simulation in the design of a new generation of water quenches and their components.
