SolidWorks Delivers Sustainable Designs in Power Applications
Go Green
- With Global Warming and Sustainable Development getting the focus they deserve,
Power Generation Equipment Manufacturers as well as Power Plant Integrators are
looking for ways and means to develop Next Generation Cost-effective Technologies
for Higher Efficiency and Performance. SolidWorks along with EGS India has
been working hard with various Manufacturers in India towards augmenting their design
capabilities to achieve these goals.
Why do Indian Power Plant Designers Choose SolidWorks?
Every Power Plant Equipment Manufacturer, Supplier or Integrator is confronted with
three challenges, namely, delay in project completion, cost over-run and Re-work
due to change in design, specification, site and/or project co-ordination.
An assessment of the reaons for the stated challenges would reveal that the Drawings
and the Bill of Material Estimation form the heart of the project management.
Changes in drawings (driven by errors and/ or revision of scope) and BOM directly
influence the profitability of the Project. SolidWorks has delivered, time
and again, in helping to address these challenges in many ways. Some of the
benefits enjoyed by our customers in Power Plant Industry include:- Design Automation
- Integrated SolidWorks 3D and 2D designs helps propagation of downstream and upstream
changes
- Knowledge Based Engineering
- SolidWorks Ensures Assimilation and Re-use of Knowledge
- Integrated Validation
- Solidworks Simulation Accurately estimates system performance, optimization and
value engineering
- Design checks such as interference detection ensures elimination of costly re-work
at site
- BOM accuracy and automatinc generation with integration to MRP/ ERP systems helps
estimate quantities and costs even a priori
- at the RFQ stage !
- Integrated Product Data
Management using Enterprise PDM for Solidworks and 2D CAD drawings and designs
including Non-CAD data, helps ensure dissemination of knowledge, project status
and progress, on a need-to-know basis, in a secure manner, considerably enhancing
efficient project management.
SolidWorks in Non-Conventional Energy Applications
SolidWorks is used in various areas of Non-Conventional Energy, namely, Wind, Fuel
Cell Technology, Solar energy, Ocean Technology among others. In addition
to providing Clean energy, Design Engineers have been able to leverage on New generation
technologies from SolidWorks in evaluating different alternate concepts to arrive
at cost-effective designs. EGS India has been
working with many Companies, Start-ups, Non-Government Organizations in providing
tools and techniques to provide critical solutions with the resolve and dedication
to help built a sustainable eco-system. Salient benefits achieved
by our customers include:
- Quicker development of designs
- Feasibility studies in cost-effective manufacturing using sustainable raw materials
- Validation of designs for efficiency and performance
- Value Engineering of Sub-systems for lower cost of operation and maintenance
- Indigenisation and Innovation for Rural applications and Integration
