Tom Oetjens Is Presenting Gear Modeling Simulations on September 24th - Find Out What He Brings to the Conversation

Tom Oetjens brings more than 40 years experience working with CAE applications, putting him in the perfect position to develop new methods of modeling and analysis

Tom Oetjens, President CAE Integrations Inc.Tom Oetjens has over 40 years experience in CAD/CAM /CAE experience in building computer aided applications and implementing start up technologies. 

As an accomplished application architect, his vision and expertise has resulted in advanced computer-aided technical applications being put into production.  Many of these are firsts and have been recorded as corporate intellectual property, including three patents.  

Significant competitive advantages were developed in industrial metals technologies: 

  • Die Face Sculptured Surface Machining, Sheet Metal Springback, Morphing, Die Face Generation, Assembly, CMM  Inspection, Forming, Warm Forming, Hot Stamp, Edge Crack Detection, Plastic Stress Analysis, Aluminum HPDC Casting
  • Material Properties, Databases and Generators, Design of Experiments
  • 3DCS Developments in: Analysis of Casting Machining Stock,  DOE of Contributors,  Assembly Clamping and Welding Simulations, Gear Train Analysis

Tom’s achievements have been recognized through numerous awards, including General Motors highest honor, the 2007 GM “Boss” Kettering Award and the General Motors Research Most Valuable Colleague Award.  

His career has spanned and crossed many boundaries.  The span of organizations are from manufacturing to product engineering and some aspects of product design.  Tom has frequently transitioned from technical developer to start up manager, technical leader, production manager and back to a technical innovator in a related area.   This constant education and training during his career were well supported by General Motors, Magna, AAM and Right Management classes.  Mathematical and research capabilities were developed while obtaining a Masters of Arts in Mathematics degree from Oakland University.  His organizational, project and employee management skills were enhanced by a Masters in Manufacturing Management from GMI (Kettering University).  

One of the most exciting areas is to add capability to existing groups to improve the accuracy of CAE predictions by automated procedures.  Tom’s technique uses a phased implementation.  It starts from an automated thread, spanning the application with fast tangible results.  The development process then builds the advanced capabilities layer by layer, with user feedback, until the application is complete.  Tom’s development of the technology layering process, documented and maintained from the beginning, is essential for success.
