Case Study: Cummins Power Generation improves generator reliability with nCode GlyphWorks

Cummins helps ensure generator set reliability with nCode GlyphWorks test data analysis software

Cummins Power Generation, part of Cummins Inc., designs and builds generator sets that must deliver reliable performance in demanding applications such as hospitals, data centers, and emergency services. To answer critical questions about component life under real-world conditions and reduce the cost of maintaining in-house analysis tools, the company needed a better way to process large volumes of test data from static, shaker table, road, and load frame testing.

Cummins Power Generation implemented nCode GlyphWorks test data analysis software from nCode to analyze fatigue, acceleration, strain, temperature, frequency, and road-test data in one workflow. The software helped engineers predict fatigue life, create accelerated life profiles for shaker tables, investigate resonance issues, and make faster design decisions, reducing testing time considerably while improving their ability to identify and solve problems before shipment.
