Vuala<\/a>: Revolutionizing food recycling with SOLIDWORKS and 3DEXPERIENCE<\/h2>\n

At a time when innovation meets sustainability, bioengineering company Vuala<\/a> has risen to the top by cutting its development time by six months, thanks to SOLIDWORKS and the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. Let’s immerse ourselves in the captivating story of this London-based start-up, which has transformed food waste into a valuable resource.<\/p>\n<\/div>

The global challenge of food waste<\/h4>\n

With nearly a million tonnes of food waste generated every year in the UK hospitality sector alone, Vuala<\/a> has embarked on an ambitious mission. The aim? To transform food waste into a valuable resource, contributing to the UK’s economy and productivity.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Vuala’s innovative solution :<\/h4>\n

With discounted licenses from the 3DEXPERIENCE<\/a> Works for Startups offering, Vuala was able to leverage roles such as 3D Creator, 3DSculptor, Collaborative Designer for SOLIDWORKS, Collaborative Industry Innovator, SOLIDWORKS Premium and 3DSwymer. These tools have enabled the company to streamline product development, create customized designs in real time, and achieve its sustainability goals. <\/span><\/p>\n

Tangible results :<\/h4>\n

Founder Anthony Ma, Ph.D., and his son, CEO Abiel Ma, used the technology to design the Vuala X1. This revolutionary prototype, suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, transforms food waste into “liquid gold”. Vuala has succeeded in automating the separation of food waste, transforming it into raw material for energy production in a matter of hours.<\/p>\n

Positive environmental impact :<\/h4>\n

Vuala’s results speak for themselves: preventing 100% of food waste from ending up in landfill, reducing carbon emissions by 75% per tonne of food waste, and targeting a reduction of 100 million tonnes of CO2 in 10 years. Vuala aims to make the UK a global pioneer in food waste recycling, while boosting the country’s economy and productivity. <\/p>\n

The crucial role of SOLIDWORKS :<\/h4>\n

Benefiting from Dassault Syst\u00e8mes’ 3DEXPERIENCE\u00ae for Startups program,<\/a> Vuala received a one-year license to use SOLIDWORKS. With over 30 iterations in SOLIDWORKS, the company built a prototype of the Vuala X1 quickly and cost-effectively. This technology enabled Vuala to speed up its design process and considerably reduce development time. <\/p>\n

The 3DEXPERIENCE platform at the heart of innovation :<\/h4>\n

Anthony Ma emphasizes the crucial role of the cloud in the 3DEXPERIENCE<\/a> platform. It enables the Vuala team to personalize customer designs in real time, facilitating instant communication and adjustments to prototypes via mobile devices. <\/p>\n
