ITW is a global design and engineering firm serving diverse industry segments from automotive and construction to food products and materials. At the heart of their business model is engineering innovation that requires the right design tools at the right time. ITW Automotive, a leading global supplier of auto parts, uses cloud-native engineering simulation in early stage design of their high-performance plastic fastening components.
ITW showcases the use of non-linear static analysis and how they have embedded simulation in their early-stage design process. The presenters demonstrate a live case study of pipe and anchor clips, and how they account for non-linear materials, contacts, and effects to predict large deformations and optimize the clip design to reduce the risk of part failure. Simulation has accelerated their time to development and significantly reduced physical testing costs by leveraging the parametric modeling capabilities in SimScale. This also ensures that poor design concepts are disqualified earlier leading to faster overall development times.
