Oerlikon | Gilles Widawski
4.0 Digital Continuity in the coating service industry

Acceleration. This is the new key word. Industries are under constant pressure – to improve product quality, boost factory efficiency, stay competitive, enhance safety, security and sustainability, and remain profitable. In the service industry, as the coating Industry or the 3D printing industry, 4.0 is about the significant transformation taking place in the way services are delivered – moving toward new customer experiences from the order to the delivery of service. The digital continuity offers these new opportunities, extending the new capabilities offered from industrial automation and the flexible factory. To stay competitive, factories must leverage the industrial internet of things and digitalization to become much more agile and efficient resources for process improvement. But we can now travel far beyond the Smart Manufacturing Ecosystem to a Smart Supply Chain Ecosystem. Examples developed for the coating service activity will illustrate those new challenges.

Elysium Co. Ltd. | Kentaro Fukuta
Simplify your 3D models -Collaborative Engineering from design to CAE and downstream processes

Increasing digitalization and global value-added networks have a strong impact on collaborative engineering. Companies are facing large amounts of data that need to be stored securely, transferred efficiently between partners, customers, suppliers etc., and handled in various tools in defined business and engineering processes. 3D data is playing an important role as communication medium throughout the entire product lifecycle — from conceptual design to downstream processes including CAE analyses, manufacturing and after-sales — and therefore requires reliable IP protection. The value of 3D product information is even increased through approaches like Model-Based Enterprise and Model-Based Systems Engineering. Simplified 3D models serve as a key-enabler for successful digitalization in heterogeneous system landscapes and efficient reuse of CAD data in CAE analyses and downstream processes as only the necessary information is processed.

Synopsys | Denis Feindt
3D Image-Based Inspection and Simulation Applied to Additive Manufactured Spinal Truss Medical Implants

Spinal fixation is a standard of care for patients with traumatic and chronic injuries. New manufacturing technologies such as additive manufacturing (AM) offer benefits for manufacturing spinal fixation devices with a wider range of mechanical design options than traditional methods. This presentation will look at the development of 4WEB Medical’s Truss Implant Technology as a solution that leverages a mechanobiologic mechanism to simulate osteogenic response and facilitate fusion.
A workflow has been created to explore differences between the as-designed and as-manufactured parts using X-ray computed tomography (CT) imaging of the manufactured device, followed by 3D image-based measurements and finite element (FE) simulations. Using this method, differences between the original design and the actual device can be assessed to consider the impact of defects and dimensional deviations on performance, and how this can be factored into future AM processes and design decisions.

Curriculum
Denis has an engineering background from the Technical University of Hamburg in Northern Germany. The last 15 years of his professional life he spent in the field of computer aided engineering covering model generation, computer aided design, meshing and simulation in medical, automotive, aerospace, energy and material sciences.
His focus today is on improving 3D image-based workflows with fully scalable and high ROI solutions that fits the tight budgets of the industry. As Business Development Manager at Synopsys, he is responsible for the Simpleware product range in Nordic, DACH, Italy and Eastern Europe.

Democratization of CAE - status quo and perspectives

Over the last decades, we have been observing the winning march of computer-aided drawing (CAD) programs, which are nowadays the market standard even for small workshops. Now, it’s the time for software that covers the next step of engineering design workflow - computer-aided engineering (CAE) software (also known as simulation/modeling software).
Traditional CAE software was designed to be used by a relatively small group of highly experienced engineers in R&D centers of corporations. A couple of decades ago, that covered almost the whole addressable market, but now - the demand in the SMB sector has been gradually growing. The first part of the presentation will conver the latest research on the real obstacles that hold back SMEs from adopting simulation habits: 40% would like to use CAE software but cannot because of its complexity (40%) and pricing (17%).
The second part of the presentation will review the solutions currently proposed by the market: Pay-as-Go, Cloud, Appification, AI.

Curriculum
Scientist turned entrepreneur. PhD in physics, 10 years of science (Univ. Latvia, Univ. Hannover, Argonne National Lab). Then, co-founded CENOS - the startup aims to democratize engineeringsoftware to be used at production plants and SMBs. Since foundingled the company through acceleration programs: 500 Startups (B26,San Francisco, CA - USA) and Startup Wise Guys (B8, Tallinn - Estonia), raised an angel round, launched a product. In 2020, thecompany employs 13 people and rapidly grows customer portfolio in12 countries in Europe, the Americas and Asia.

TherMet Solutions Pvt.Ltd | Prasanna Kumar
InverseSOLVER: The New Tool for Quality Control by Process Simulation in Manufacturing

In manufacturing, the heat carried away from the component by complex external conditions like quenching, spray cooling, water jet cooling etc., cannot be measured directly. Quantification of such factors is necessary to develop accurate numerical models and efficient process control. InverseSOLVER® together with the Reference Quench Probe® is designed to solve this problem.
In this presentation, we will present how the InverseSOLVER uses temperature-time series measured on samples to estimate the heat flux rate in real world conditions. We also present a new equipment Reference Quench Probe designed to measure the cooling characteristics of the quenchant under plant operating conditions. Reference Quench Probe is based on InverseSOLVER coupled with austenite transformation in the heat treatment of steels.
Several industrial case studies are reported.
