Glasgow, UK Company:Founded in 2002 in Glasglow, Windsave is the
largest micro wind turbine installer inthe UK and is at the
forefront of a movement to bring green energy choices toconsumers.
Challenge:The company needed to standardise on a CAD system that
would improve theiroverall performance and efficiency, to refine
the technology and accelerate Dassault Systmes Confidential
Information development of its wall mounted micro-wind turbine
system to reduce the amount ofpower a home or business draws from
the national electricity grid. Key Benefits: Windsave has reduced
the number of prototypes to test new products or features from four
to one, saving up to 3,000, using SolidWorks and SolidWorks
Simulation. The company have reduced the prototype production and
testing process from eight weeks to two. With SolidWorks and

Pro/ENGINEER. SolidWorks and SolidWorks Simulation allow us to
produce and test a sample on screen to see if weve over- or
under-engineered it. Thats a huge benefit when optimising a design.

SolidWorks Motion SolidWorks Motion is kinematic and dynamic
simulation. Itprovides all the resultant kinematic values, such as
time-varyingdisplacement, velocity and acceleration, for all moving
bodies andresultant dynamics loads on all joints, such as force,
torque andpower. Dassault Systmes Confidential Information This
software enables you to study the physics of movingassemblies. With
SolidWorks Motion, you can estimate peakmotor torque, analyze
robotic performance during operation, sizemotors/actuators, and
determine power consumption. In additionto laying out linkages and
developing cams, you can analyze geardrives, size springs/dampers,
determine how contacting partsbehave, and minimize force imbalances
in rotating systems.49 37. Natural Frequency and Resonance Avoid
product failure due to excessive shaking or rattling orvibration.
Natural frequency is how quickly a system will move back andforth
(or oscillate). Can be used to compare the relative stiffness of
design variations Dassault Systmes Confidential Information (even
