An asset digital twin is based on a 3D model as a repository of asset information and of cumulative data completed by properties and documents, such as manuals or operating procedures generated during all life cycle phases of the asset. The twin encompasses technical documents produced during Engineering Procurement and Construction (EPC).

Simulation-Driven Design Despite Finite Element Method (FEM) software being commercially available for half a century, the key bottleneck in development is still the transformation of a CAD design into a simulation model. Altair’s unique technology enables designers and engineers to place simulation at the core of innovation.

He says the constant goal over the years is to be a single-source precision machining and contract manufacturing partner. “The engineers, especially some of the youngest ones, who looked at Fulcrum’s API were impressed by its openness, completeness and thorough documentation. Interfacing applications has paid off.

The benefits are substantial, especially when applied at bottleneck processes. When a SMED effort is finished, not only should changeover be reduced significantly, but also it should be standardized and documented. This eliminates variability in changeover time, which is a source of unpredictability in manufacturing.

For the machines being used for precision applications, most of the critical raw materials like CNC, LM guideways, ball screws, and bearings have to be imported due to a lack of local source of supply. Of course, we have strong competition from import players but our execution timeline with all these difficulties has boosted our sales.
