Toyota Material Handling Europe is located in Mjölby, Sweden and provides optimized solutions that help businesses of all sizes across Europe meet today's materials handling challenges. The group relies on the wealth of experience accumulated over many years of operation for the design of a wide range of advanced Toyota and BT branded products.
Due to market growth in Europe and the need for equipment design customization for European customers, the engineering department of Toyota Material Handling Europe needed to develop its own competency in dynamic simulation and dynamic truck behavior. They want to be able to quickly address specific customer requirements in order to better serve their markets.
"Through MSC Software's simulation technology, we are able to optimize complex welded forklift structures and validate behavior of the forklift before building any physical prototypes," said Magnus Malmberg, Manager Load & Structural Simulation at Toyota Material Handling. "This helps us optimize product durability so we can offer high quality, customized and innovative equipment to our clients."
"We are very proud that Toyota Material Handling Europe has selected our software solutions for advanced modeling and simulation of their material handling solutions," said Kais Bouchiba, Senior Vice-President EMEA at MSC Software. "Our solutions meet their mandatory criteria which included CATIA interoperability, ease of use, and affordability. We are convinced that MSC's CAE Solutions will help Toyota Material Handling Europe design even better and more innovative products in a cost effective manner. We want to extend our thanks to our distributor in Sweden, CAE Value AB, who was instrumental in making this collaboration possible."
