Operational Impact
The implementation of the ANSYS Workbench template-based approach resulted in significant operational improvements for TRW Automotive. The increased automation and the ability to bring analysis to the upfront of the design cycle allowed for a more efficient and streamlined process. This not only saved valuable time but also improved the quality of the design proposals by allowing for a more thorough evaluation. The concurrent development of multiple design proposals also increased the company's ability to meet OEMs’ business and engineering targets, thereby improving its competitiveness in the market. Overall, the solution provided by ANSYS Workbench significantly enhanced TRW Automotive's brake rotor design and validation process. | |
