Manufacturers of trucks, buses, motorcycles, rail vehicles, tractors and other off-highway vehicles face similar challenges as the automotive manufacturers. They need to transform their development processes to accelerate the going-to-market process, while controlling costs and risks. They experience increasing market requirements in terms of performance, security, comfort and durability. Due to extreme operating conditions and low production volumes, successive prototype testing is often not an option for these manufacturers. LMS enables them to address critical functional performance aspects using extensive virtual prototype testing, and to refine and validate their products with minimal physical prototype testing.
LMS solutions are central to Harley Davidson’s strategy of maintaining their classic sound. Arctic Cat relies on LMS testing and simulation tools to proactively shape the sound and the overall riding experience of their snowmobiles and all-terrain vehicles.
Scania uses LMS virtual simulation solutions to gain engineering insights early in the process and to explore more innovative concepts.
LMS simulation tools helped John Deere to improve tractor comfort, while substantially reducing time to market by providing accurate performance predictions prior to prototyping.
LMS motion simulation technology played a critical role in the design of Liebherr’s innovative mining truck that carries 320 tons, almost twice its own weight.
