"Developing a power transmission system requires managing a huge volume of data. At the configuration management division, we are responsible for the airworthiness of our products. It is, therefore, our job to make sure that every project stakeholder works on a single product reference with reliable, up-to-date data that complies with the requirements of our external and internal customers."
“Isight played a key role. It helped us unify our process and saved a considerable amount of time. Using the Isight environment, we have been able to reduce the use of conservative assumptions for our designs.”
"The model improved the installation workflow on site. There was practically no time wasted on resolving conflicts between different trades."
"The most important point to consider in designing single-lens cameras is that they will be hand-held. It’s necessary to optimize camera handling as well as button and dial locations, and then design the style. CATIA is a very reliable tool for our designers since detailed and fine adjustments like these can be quickly incorporated into a 3D shape."
"For Nikon designers, CATIA has become an essential tool. CATIA has overwhelmingly improved efficiency, reducing the design lead time down to one-third. Mock-ups are currently created three to four times before finalizing the shape, and we believe that the key to improving product competitiveness is to further reduce the design period and improve the quality without increasing the number of mock-up creations."
"Whether in design or documentation, 3DS technology has enabled us to be more efficient and innovative, and to bring added value to our customers. Through innovation, we hope to set new standards."
"We were the naval architects for these two vessels. From the very beginning of the design process, we incorporated the SRTP rules, as specified by the International Maritime Organization (IMO). Our role was to coordinate the SRTP implementation with the shipyard responsible for building the vessel, and to develop the training scenarios and safety reference manuals for the ship’s crew. We relied on 3DVIA Composer, part of Dassault Systèmes’ (3DS) 3DEXPERIENCE Platform, to develop a training application that walks the crew through the safety procedures so that they are prepared if and when a crisis situation occurs.”
"The DS PLM solution combines all our activities in a single platform allowing access to up-to-date information and documentation to all teams from different technical areas. We can plan and orchestrate all tasks effectively even if they are performed at different times and have different timelines."
“With the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, we have created a foundation that prepares us for the future. The platform gives us the ability to map the requirements from the start of development to series production, and to manage the development of the appropriate specifications and models.”
"Rolling out a PLM platform is a complex process and it’s important to have a good implementation partner and a relationship of mutual trust. We have a long-standing partnership with Helbling IT Solutions. They are familiar with our development process and the way they’ve implemented the system is in line with how we work."
"One of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform’s biggest advantages is that it provides an integrated solution for the different disciplines involved in product development. All product stakeholders - mechanical, electrical, software development - can collaborate on the most up-to-date version of a product’s data, which promotes a fluid exchange of ideas. This transparency also increases product quality."
“We are riding a wave of innovation that has become possible because of tools like SolidWorks.”
"Simulating a blast event provides important, realistic data without the risk of involving test subjects."
"The FEA model is an effective tool to plan and critique each series of experiments."
"In a fast-moving automotive industry characterized by ever shorter lead times, no compromises are acceptable. With the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, design engineers from our three sites can work with one another throughout product development to accelerate cycle times."
