Case Study: MAN Diesel & Turbo Propulsion Competence Center achieves faster, more efficient propulsion design with Maple from Maplesoft

MAN Diesel & Turbo Propulsion Competence Center replaces design software in 6 months with Maplesoft

The customer, MAN Diesel & Turbo Propulsion Competence Center, faced the challenge of a time-consuming design process for marine propulsion systems. Their existing mathematics software required engineers to manually transpose all equations into a specialized language, which was inefficient. They turned to the vendor, Maplesoft, and implemented its product, Maple, to address this issue.

Maplesoft's solution allowed the engineers to enter design equations directly in their original format, drastically reducing the time needed for translation, checking, and debugging. The result was a significant increase in speed and efficiency. Within just six months, the power of Maple convinced the engineers to explore further automation, including building standard models and creating automated links to their 3D CAD system for future projects.
