All Wheel Steering on
lawn and garden tractors provides a tighter turning radius and better
maneuverability making grass cutting easier and faster.
ITI was asked to help our client introduce a new mower design featuring the All Wheel Steering capability.
Simulation-Led Development
ITI's Systems Engineering / Analysis Leads Design (SE/ALD™) process allows our clients to deliver innovative new products while reducing new product development time and cost.
SE/ALD™ is a simulation-led approach that allows our clients to evaluate and analyze numerous design alternatives early in the product development process.
SE/ALD™ saves time and costs by eliminating the need to build and test multiple physical prototypes standard with conventional product development practices.
Product Innovation
The new All Wheel Steering design met all product and development process goals.
The uncut grass radius measured an average of 14 ¼". This was well below the original design goal of 18 ½".
Today our client continues to rely on ITI's SE/ALD™ process to deliver innovative new products and features more quickly at lower development costs.
