Automated forming simulation

In the course Digitalization and Automation in Engineering Processes the students get to work with automation of engineering tasks and learn concepts from AI and design automation to facilitate the development of product platforms and mass customized products.

These images show the results of a project in collaboration with Thule in the course Digitalization and Automation in Engineering Processes. The task was to automate the process of simulating the forming process of a mounting bracket for a roof rack. Each bracket is customized to every car model which makes the process recurring for each new car model on the market.
