Simulation-Driven Design Automation for Mechanical Positioners - Hero

Simulation-Driven Design Automation for Mechanical Positioners

We developed a CAD-integrated configuration tool that automatically generates optimized positioner design proposals from requirements like load and height in less than a minute. Created as a case study in Autodesk Inventor, the tool uses optimization algorithms and metamodels to accelerate early-stage engineering. It enables Yaskawa Nordic to conduct instant feasibility studies and generate rapid quotation estimates, cutting design time and providing a solid starting point for development.

Portable Predictive Maintenance Device for Conveyor Rollers

We designed and built a portable predictive maintenance device for conveyor rollers to prevent costly unplanned downtime in manufacturing environments. Working with NKT HV Cables, our multi-modal sensor tool successfully detected early mechanical degradation by combining vibration, acoustic, and thermal data. This validated prototype offers a reliable, low-cost approach to reducing material waste and financial losses on the factory floor.

V-Com presented at Stanford University

V-Com, a precautionary system that communicates safety-critical information between truck drivers and vulnerable road users was presented by six final year MSc students from Blekinge Institute of Technology and Stanford University at this year’s Stanford EXPE – design experience. In their capstone project, ME310, which runs from October to June, they move in a Design Thinking process through phases of needfinding, ideation, prototyping and more to arrive at a final detail designed product to display at the final exhibition, the EXPE.
