Company
Founded in 1853, Hutchinson offers knowhow, skills and technological expertise for improved performance in safety, comfort and well-being.
Challenge
Hutchinson had to meet demand for thorough testing and meet rigorous testing demanded by R&D engineers. Hutchinson wanted to return the best possible performance of solvers running on its high performance computing (HPC) cluster to create these simulations.
Solution
Installing an HPC cluster based on the Intel® Xeon® processor 5560 with four cores doubles hardware performance node on node compared to previous Intel Xeon processor 5100 series with two cores per socket and collaborating with the engineers from Intel Software and Services Group to ensure optimal performance of its software to run on multi-core processors.
Benefit
Research and development speeds up, reducing the time to deliver optimised products to end customers and helping Hutchinson to remain the preferred component supplier of choice to manufacturers. Hutchinson’s car manufacturing customers in particular have been able to reduce concept time drastically.
