A lot of our prototyping is done before we have a physical version to test.įor us the time reduction on doing prototyping through SOLIDWORKS really where we can save a lot of time, not guessing to what the outcome will be. We can do a lot of our analysis virtually through SOLIDWORKS before we even need to get to the physical side of design. We can thin down the gauges where necessary and we can actually simplify a lot of our designs. We can see exactly where the loading is going to be, we can take material out of it. We can optimise a lot of our designs by using the simulation packages. We use a lot of chassis we use a lot of thick gauge metal works so we need to see where the loading is actually going to be. We use SOLIDWORKS Simulation for a lot of our heavier duty equipment. You can’t see normally what’s going on with air, so being able to see what’s going on there you look to make improvements inside SOLIDWORKS and see if that improves the temperature rise inside the enclosure. Heat flow is our enemy so air flow and understanding air flow within our product has really been beneficial. The air flow simulation has paid for itself really in that it’s enabled us to make products robust in terms of longevity. From there we’ve also looked to use it on other products as well. PV90 Grand Power unit is the one we’ve used the flow simulation the most on recently and that’s really the reason we purchased it in the first place, because cooling was so critical for it.

It creates an overall professional view of the company.
ENCLOSURE SOLIDWORKS FLOW SIMULATION MANUALS
It allows us to not only to develop the product in house, have control over the designs, it also allows us to demonstrate that within the data sheets, manuals and things like that.

We use every single point of the software, we work with our electrical engineers to develop a product further and further. We start simply with conceptual work and then we work through to the final design process. We use SOLIDWORKS every day, we use it for every one of our products.
ENCLOSURE SOLIDWORKS FLOW SIMULATION SOFTWARE
SOLIDWORKS has really enabled us to play with that, the introduction of 3D design and simulation software has enabled us to take things on to a whole new level. Powervamp ethos is to understand the customer’s needs and we will work very closely with the customer when we are designing our product to ensure the end user is the one getting the most benefit out of it.

Really from there the basis of the company was formed, the business has really grown. Yeah really sort of got the business going in the automotive industry and therefore then developed the first power pack for the aviation industry looking at turbine starting for helicopters. Powervamp was formed approximately 25 years ago by Richard Roller, on his kitchen table where he made the first starter pack, Jump packs for starting flat batteries on cars.
