SOLIDWORKS Solutions for Elevators from Concept Design to Manufacturing

Elevator Design using SOLIDWORKS

• Design of layouts and manufacture components for the elevators in a short time
• Evaluation of pre assembly motion mechanisms can be done using a 2D block sketches at design stage 
• Supporting structural members can be developed based on the layout with the defined Cutlist information
• Design changes based on the spaces and people accommodation will helps to respond the customer quotation as soon as possible
• Global standard fasteners can be imported directly from the design library and no scratch design is required
• BOM reports can be generated instantly for procurement team for outsourcing

• Kinematics of the lift mechanism can be analysed and reported automatically
• Virtual testing of the lift will eliminate the expensive prototype methodology
• Dynamic analysis of sudden impact loads can be performed 

Assembly catalogue

Load test simulation

 

• Complete package of predefined electrical manufacturer and schematic symbol library to make an agile design
• Elevator power systems can be designed in a collaborative environment with E-CAD and M-CAD 
• Manufacture drawings can be released in a more interactive way of digital approach and paperless for the greener environment
• Aligning of design datum in a single hub and accessing in a structured manner to use and work with updated design
• Creation of technical communication deliverables for elevators like Part catalogues, on site installation manuals, maintenance manuals, assembly manuals etc..
• Delivering aesthetic and stylish looks of elevator interiors for marketing and sales to meet the world class visualisation

 

Forklift - SOLIDWORKS Solution Right from Efficient Design to Manufacturing

SOLIDWORKS Solutions in every Stage of Forklift Design & Development Process:

• Concept design of forklift right from the 3D design to the market
• Standard component like chains and sprocket are available in Toolbox & 3d content center
• Paperless drawing for the manufacturing process in a 3D predefined view
• Technical documents for the maintains and service engineer can be easily developed
• Rendering the 3D design will give us how the product will look in the real world which will be useful for marketing the product even before the production
• Electrical wiring and routing connections can also be done along with mechanical integration for the forklift machine

• Effective communication of the design can be done by sharing the design through eDrawing file format where the end user doesn’t need any design software to view
• The analysis of the load carrying capacity of the forklift can be done even before production
• Optimization of material and design can be performed without compromising on the working functionality
• Structural stability of the product can be validated through buckling analysis
• Virtual validation to simulate the structural mechanism of each operations
• Maximum safe load limit can be analyzed on various possible working environment
• Vehicle stability can be analyzed with Centre of Gravity option using SOLIDWORKS Motion
• The injection molding process can be virtually validated for the plastic parts to efficiently design the product and mold.
