“Time is critical for us; we have to make our trailers on time no matter what. If there’s an issue, we have to solve it within hours, so the shop can keep building without delays. I haven’t seen anything as good as the simulation app in any other software platform. …

"Typically, the manual CAE process consumes two days just to complete one run. Of course, this timing can be reduced if the project is critical, but this is the typical day-to-day turnaround time balancing several projects per engineer."

“This was a dream when I started with PLM 20 year ago, but we saw three years ago that with Version 6 it was quite possible. You can view parts, explode sections, get drawings – all in real time.”

“The cost of building physical prototypes is prohibitive for a project like ours. There’s no margin of error. We have one chance to get it right.”

“PLM solutions from IBM and Dassault Systèmes help Grundfos design more innovative products. This helps us to meet our corporate goal of increasing pump efficiency by 5% each time we update a model.”

"Globalisation of the company is a top priority at Grundfos and that creates a strong demand for tools."

“By reusing design knowledge captured in intelligent templates in CATIA and made available through ENOVIA, we have increased the efficiency of our design process for tools and test beds by 20%.”

"Now that all product specifications are held in the PLM database, “it’s far easier to modify designs. We sometimes need to modify parts in an iterative process right up to the last minute. CATIA helps us do this far more easily.”

"Designing in parallel with my colleagues halves the time I need to create an assembly."

"CATIA helps us innovate as it’s easier to show what we have in mind and to transfer this to a 3D model. We can also capitalize on previous knowhow and customize the designs we already have to create new ones. This has considerably boosted our design capabilities."

"By leveraging the 3DEXPERIENCE platform that combines engineering, quality and regulatory compliance business processes, we have moved closer towards becoming the R&D and manufacturing center of choice for our customer."

“Using ENOVIA, organization in the engineering office has improved considerably. Tecnitoys’ designers are now sure to access the correct up-todate versions of each design.”

“Carbon fiber is already used today in electric vehicles, but one limitation is fracture toughness. Anywhere you have a large structural component, there are geometric discontinuities the intersection of an aircraft fuselage with an engine cowling, for instance, or the window frame in a passenger vehicle that present areas prone …

“ENOVIA standardizes the design process and accelerates the change management and approval processes of documents at CRC. It has improved the quality ofour products.”

"By developing life-like 3D printed replicas of a patient’s anatomy, created from their own medical imaging, we are able to assist healthcare providers with a unique planning approach to procedures."
