Jayco as Inventor of the Month for July 2007
Írta: Standa
Autodesk, Inc. announced that Jayco, a leading designer and manufacturer of Human-Machine Interfaces, has been named as the Autodesk Inventor of the Month for July 2007. The Inventor of the Month program (http://www.autodesk.com/inventorofthemonth) recognizes the most innovative design and engineering advancements made by the extensive community using Autodesk Inventor software, the foundation for Digital Prototyping.
Jayco received the Inventor of the Month designation for its work packaging a new type of mobile electronic flightdeck for one of its aviation customers. These devices are portable computing solutions that enable flight crews to access critical digitized flight navigational data and flight deck/cabin management documentation.
To tackle this complex assignment, Jayco did all of its design work in 3D, using Autodesk Inventor software. By creating 3D models, Jayco was able to virtually explore its solution before it was built, using digital prototypes to simulate the real-world performance of the design without having to rely on costly physical prototypes."Digital Prototyping allowed us to visualize and analyze our designs ahead of time, to check for interferences," said Mistry. "As a result, the number of iterations required to come up with a final design was greatly reduced. We probably decreased the overall development cycle by 50 percent by using Autodesk Inventor software, which allowed us to deliver a mobile electronic flightdeck solution to our customers in less time.""Jayco's mobile electronic flightdeck solution shows that Digital Prototyping doesn't just save companies time and money," said Robert "Buzz" Kross, vice president of Autodesk Manufacturing Solutions. "It also serves as an engine for innovation, better allowing companies to come up with fresh new ideas and designs. Jayco's solution is sure to benefit a wide range of aviation customers and we are pleased to name them as our Inventor of the Month for July."Each month, Autodesk selects an Inventor of the Month from the more than 600,000 users of Autodesk Inventor software, the foundation for Digital Prototyping. Winners are chosen for engineering excellence and groundbreaking innovation. For more information on Autodesk Inventor of the Month, contact us at IOM@autodesk.com.
