Value Engineering is of prime importance in the heavy equipment industry. It is the process where the value of a particular product is improved. A product’s value can be increased by improving the functions of the product. Reducing the overall cost can also be an alternative. The major steps of value engineering are (a) information phase, (b) speculation (creative) phase, (c) evaluation (analysis) phase, (d) development phase (value management proposal), and (e) presentation (report) phase. These phases are defined by the Society of American Value Engineers (SAVE).
The primary objective of the heavy equipment industry opting for design through finite element analysis is to improve performance and to achieve profitability. At Zeus Numerix, the team strives to understand the customers’ requirements. Specific emphasis is given to design constraints, performance, ease of manufacturing and possibilities of mass manufacturing. Heavy machinery is designed through finite-element based analysis. Modal, static structural, shock, random vibration, harmonic, vibration, and fatigue analyses are done. This helps to arrive at an optimal design. The machines are optimized for their structural integrity and weight. Design failure mode and reliability analysis are done to improve the overall value of the equipment.
