Case Study: Bruks Siwertell achieves greater reliability and efficiency with EDRMedeso simulation

Bruks Siwertell utilizing simulation to optimize performance, reliability and efficiency in bulk handing operations

Bruks Siwertell, a market-leading supplier of dry bulk handling systems, faced the significant challenge of optimizing the reliability and efficiency of its ship loaders and unloaders. The financial repercussions of machinery downtime for their customers were severe, as costs escalated for every day a ship was docked. To address this, they partnered with vendor EDRMedeso and employed Ansys simulation software to analyze and improve their equipment designs.

The solution implemented with EDRMedeso involved a simulation-driven approach, utilizing tools like Ansys Mechanical and Rocky during both the design phase and for post-delivery troubleshooting. This strategy minimized physical prototyping, reduced wasted resources, and enhanced machine longevity. The results included optimized equipment performance that reduced costly downtime for their customers, with Bruks Siwertell's engineering manager citing EDRMedeso's fast and valuable technical support as a key benefit.
