Sub-Zero Group and Ansys enter into a new multiyear
agreement to advance simulation-driven product development, improve
designs, and reduce physical prototyping
/ Key Highlights
- Sub-Zero Group integrates Ansys simulation solutions into early
R&D stages to optimize designs, workflows, and efficiency
- Ansys simulation helps Sub-Zero Group accelerate development
timelines by nearly 20% and reduce physical prototypes by 50%
PITTSBURGH, Jan. 5, 2023
/PRNewswire/ -- Building on a longstanding relationship, Ansys
(NASDAQ: ANSS) signed a multiyear agreement with Sub-Zero Group,
Inc. (Sub-Zero Group) to expand Sub-Zero Group's use of Ansys'
simulation solutions and digitally transform its research and
development (R&D) processes to optimize designs, efficiency,
and product quality. The industry-leading manufacturer of premium
kitchen appliance brands Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Cove, Sub-Zero Group
implements Ansys' industry-leading simulation tools to inform
designs from early stages, reduce physical prototypes by up to 50%,
and accelerate development by nearly 20%.
Historically, Sub-Zero Group integrated simulation as a
late-stage verification method. Today, Ansys helps Sub-Zero Group
create and maintain an infrastructure that includes automated and
semi-automated workflows in which simulation is used to ideate and
fine-tune designs before a physical prototype is ever made.
Further, by shifting to virtual prototyping and testing, Sub-Zero
Group improves sustainability by decreasing material usage and
manufacturing time, which preserves energy and eliminates
unnecessary waste.
"By incorporating Ansys' simulation solutions earlier in our
R&D processes, we are now beginning with the end in mind," said
Terry Hoffman, senior director at
Sub-Zero Group. "With simulation front and center from early-stage
design, we can see the bigger picture and better inform our
development process, accelerate timelines, reduce physical
prototyping, and, ultimately, enhance product quality and safety.
Essentially, Ansys simulation enables us to deliver our brand
promise of producing world-class kitchen appliances."
Under the agreement, Sub-Zero Group will continue to leverage
tools such as Ansys® Mechanical™ for structural analyses, Ansys®
Fluent® for computational fluid dynamics, and developing Ansys®
HFSS™ capabilities to understand electromagnetic phenomena. From
noise to thermal stresses, connectivity, and more, Ansys simulation
provides Sub-Zero Group with insight into areas that could not be
fully explored with physical testing alone.
"Ansys is proud to collaborate with Sub-Zero Group to drive
digital transformation and sustainable product development by
encouraging simulation as an active part of development," said Walt
Hearn, vice president of worldwide sales and customer
excellence at Ansys. "Simulation integration not only saves time
and cost but provides critical insight to optimize product
performance, safety, and efficiency."

Vegas from Jan. 5-8, 2023, at
booth #4401.
