Case Study: Meter S.p.A. achieves faster customized bearing design with Hexagon RomaxDESIGNER Enterprise

Meter S.p.A. use RomaxDESIGNER Enterprise for effective innovation of customized bearings

Meter S.p.A., the Italian product development center for global bearing manufacturer Meter Bearings, needed to design innovative, completely customized bearings for specific client applications. To meet this challenge, they partnered with vendor Hexagon and implemented its RomaxDESIGNER Enterprise software to perform advanced bearing analysis within a whole-system simulation context.

Hexagon's solution provided Meter S.p.A. with the tools to optimize bearing geometry, automate analysis through batch running, and generate high-quality customized reports. The results allowed the company to deliver optimized designs to customers more quickly and with greater confidence in their accuracy. The implementation of Hexagon's software saved considerable time in product development and provided measurable improvements in analysis precision, such as with the new R17 roller edge stress feature for assessing the impact of stress on bearing life.
