Grinding Gears is sponsored by Prismier where manufacturing is simplified. About Grinding Gears: Engineering knowledge is limitless in its scope and detail. Making sense of specialized engineering knowledge is not easy. Why? Most of it you didn’t learn during your college years. A majority of the technical know-how is learned informally on the job. If you’re fortunate, you will have an incredible mentor who can show you the tricks of the trade. In fact, the knowledge you need to have a successful career exists invisibly in the minds of engineers who are entirely unaware of it. This podcast will serve as your own personal tribe of mentors. In each episode, we will extract tribal knowledge from top engineering and manufacturing leaders to help you on your journey. There is no way of knowing what you are going to need around the next corner of your career, so let Grinding Gears be your guide. The Grinding Gears Podcast is sponsored by Prismier where you can get high-quality prototyped parts in days, not weeks.

Everything we wear, every product we use, every building we see is a design defined by a certain shape. The Design with Vision project illustrates how eye tracking technology can be combined with shape generation software to create a radically new type of computer aided design. As you sketch ideas for product shape the system detects what you are looking at and offers you a range of on-screen alternative shapes. This is computing that works with your own creativity rather than replacing it – this research, a collaboration between the OU and the University of Leeds is aimed at stimulating and generating ideas for designers, the result could have a global effect on the industries of the future.

As product engineering tools continue to morph and expand at speeds human expertise may not be able to endure, Revolutionary design technologies that span beyond industry borders, will prove their necessity for companies looking to take over their markets in the future. What will the future of design technologies and machinery look like? What will your digitalization story be? Where engineering meets tomorrow. In complex construction projects, changes are bound to happen many times before completion. While some changes can be made in isolation, others will impact many other project components. That’s why a general contractor needs a design-sharing system that can inform sub-contractors when an approved change calls for a design change on their end. I’m your host, Jennifer Piper, and today I’m joined by Derek England, NX Product Manager for AEC and BIM at Siemens Digital Industries Software. He’ll help us understand the design review challenge in the AEC industry and the impact it’s having. He’ll also share how NX from Siemens DISW and the digital twins address the challenges faced by the industry. In this episode, you’ll learn how data and design silos impact construction projects and what can be done to eliminate them. You’ll find out about the problems that come with a single-file approach, and you’ll hear how NX improves collaboration and ultimately simplifies the design review processes. What You’ll Learn in this Episode: The purpose of a design review (03:58) Why it isn’t easy to collaborate and coordinate design reviews (05:27) How NX simplifies design reviews (08:01) The role of the digital twin in design reviews (10:57) How a single-file approach hinders collaboration (11:35) How the BIM collaboration space might look like in the next five years (16:24) Connect with Derek England: LinkedIn Siemens Connect with Jennifer Piper: LinkedIn
