12. Benefits of Simulation Workflow Automation and
Data Management for Sales Support

Strong simulation support
with large drives proposals
(many complex proposals
per month)

Customers demand for
complete analysis of drive
impact on grid even in the
proposal stage

Strong needs for precise
and sustainable analysis
results to avoid unexpected
additional cost in realization
phase

Data management
For re-runs of existing
simulations further time
reduction in:

Model selection

Reduction of runtime of
proposals leads to

shorter run times

more simulations for

higher accuracy
Improved quality -> lower
change/rework cost
Increasing hit rate of
proposals — higher volume
Covering of more
specifications by more
proposals —> higher volume

18. Benefits of Simulation Workflow Automation and
Data Management for System Testing

In principle system test has
to cover all combinations of
motors, drives and SW
(e.g. 1PH8: 2x 22 variants;
$120: ~6 variants)

Many HW prototypes have
to be tested for new
products

Strong need to reduce
time-to-market while
maintaining product quality

Conclusion

Electric drive systems address a wide range of applications

Interdisciplinary optimization leads to higher energy efficiency, productivity and
reliability

Simulation throughout the PLM process reduces time to market while
maintaining high product quality

An automated simulation workflow supports sales for large customer specific
drive systems

The connection of a system simulation tool to the PLM system enables the
validation of many combinations of control software and motors
