Case Study: RLE International reduces FE model build time with Synera

RLE International cuts FE model build time by 30% with Synera

RLE International, a global provider of development services for the mobility industry, faced significant challenges in its finite element (FE) model building process for chassis development. The manual, click-intensive work was time-consuming, error-prone, and difficult to scale, which hindered shorter development cycles and risked project timelines. To address this, they partnered with vendor Synera to implement an automation solution.

Using Synera's process automation platform, RLE automated the application of boundary conditions, specific solver runs, and reporting. This was achieved by engineers without programming knowledge using Synera's visual language. The solution reduced model building time by 30%, decreased manual errors, and achieved a 320% ROI within the first 12 months. It also allowed RLE to reduce the team size needed for FE modeling from five engineers to three, enabling faster iteration and safeguarding vehicle start-of-production schedules.
