4D Simulation: Risk Mitigation
Facing critical decisions about a new oil field development, executives from one of the world’s largest energy companies called on EOS Solutions to test the validity of project plans and risk mitigation strategies. EOS applied its advanced systems modeling principles to the Company’s real-world plans and built several different 4D simulations. As a result, they were able to make significant improvements to the plan and accurately plan for adjustment to variables such as: capital investment schedules, staffing levels, seasonal changes in production, site layout and changes in the price of oil.
3D PDF: Engineering Release
In pursuit of the most efficient engineering release procedures for a new project involving a client in the wide-body aircraft industry, Goodrich Corporation challenged EOS to lead the integration of 3D PDF software into its operations. EOS created a one-click solution that allowed engineers and designers to convert engineering release data from CATIA into a universally accessible 3D PDF document. To date, the global aerospace supplier has released over 4,000 parts using a customized 3D PDF solution from EOS.
4D: Forecasting Production
For the number one producer of regional aircraft, forecasting order fulfillment schedules years in advance of actual delivery dates is vital to avoiding penalties for late delivery. Pulling together key data from throughout the supply chain, like shipping schedules and product failure rates, EOS ran 4D simulations of the entire manufacturing process. From the fluctuation of its supplier’s delivery schedules, to the ergonomics of plane assembly, the intelligence gathered from the simulations allowed the airplane maker to negotiate penalties for late delivery with supreme confidence and improve its manufacturing process.
3D PDF: Work Instructions
Pursuing innovative solutions for repairing its Bradley Fighting Vehicle in the field, the U.S. Department of Defense was among the first organizations in the world to integrate 3D PDF into its operations. Working together with staff at the Red River Army Depot, EOS created 3D work instructions embedded into a highly compressed PDF file that soldiers in the field could download in minutes and use to visualize complex transmission repairs. Unlike previous work instructions, which required non-standard software installations and took hours to download, 3D PDF vastly improved mission flexibility and responsiveness.
What we do
Happening Now at EOS
EOS wrote an article for Appliance Design Magazine. We discussed the many benefits of Virtual Prototyping and CAVE technologies.
Virtual Prototyping
Virtual prototyping leads to decreased costs and increased efficiency in manufacturing.
- by Abbie Nesbitt
Typical product development cycles can be tedious and expensive procedures, particularly when physical prototypes are required. When a tangible model is involved, the product must be designed, built, tested, and then fixed accordingly. Physical prototypes must be built and re-built after every unsuccessful test, making them a less than optimal choice for a company that values efficiency. With virtual prototyping, however, the development of a product moves straight from design to testing and analysis, and then finally to build. Virtual prototypes allow for the digital exploration of a complete simulated product before it is actually built, decreasing the number of rebuilds necessary and minimizing material waste…continued
