1277 Siemens PLM Testimonials

"We were the first in Switzerland to implement NX feature-based holemaking,” Klemm adds. For support, Klemm relies on his company’s strong partnership with Siemens PLM Software."

“We view the PLM implementation as a sound foundation to support innovation and all of our business strategies, including global brand building, diversification and worldwide market penetration.”

"NX Mold Design encompasses best practices derived from a wide base of mold manufacturers. We are taking advantage of these techniques and directly applying them to our mold design process."

"Not only does Solid Edge have the design tools and functionalities we demanded, but Siemens’ worldwide reputation for industry-leading products and support services gave us confidence we were making a wise investment."

“With NX, the digital development of the product goes beyond individual and department productivity and ensures a collaborative approach.”

“Engineers, expertise and the use of advanced software such as Solid Edge help us deliver innovative solutions.”

“For major modifications, we have been able to cut development time by as much as 80 percent by using Solid Edge. For a recent project bid, we modified the entire machine overnight to cut shipment costs by redesigning it to fit in a smaller container. After we submitted the new 3D model, the customer changed project conditions and none of our competitors were able to react as quickly as we did.”

"More than anything, NX provides comprehensive NC programming capabilities. We evaluated various CAD/CAM solutions, but it was NX and its CAD capabilities that enable us to effectively handle large-scale model data. We can now easily use assemblies from customers. This significantly improves our collaboration with our clients, and the advanced NX CAM functions help us streamline and optimize our manufacturing process – from planning to production."

“It is pointless to have great ideas if you cannot implement. NX enables us to realize innovation – quickly, easily and cost-effectively.”

“In absolute terms, we have an error in the real loads of between 8 and 15 percent depending on the mission. The main advantage is that we will be able to start with a complete virtual prediction and use experimental data for model validation.”

“The automobile industry is in a period of sweeping change that hasn’t been experienced for more than 20 or 30 years. Lightweight design is the change lever for forward-looking conservation of natural resources, and every industry can profit from this.”

"Before NX, we would spend on average three days generating NC paths after an adaptation of the design. Thanks to the integration of NX, this is now done in half an hour."

“Fibersim enables us to do a faster conversion from metal to composites, and minimizes the risk by verifying information.”

“We can freely choose where to have the mold built, because using Solid Edge means exceptional reliability in exchanging files with suppliers. Even if suppliers don’t use the same software; the STEP (Standard for the Exchange of Product Model Data) format generated by Solid Edge is sufficient 99 percent of the time.”

"As a card goes through production, we’re adding value to that card in terms of labor value. By having Tecnomatix update SAP, we’re doing that cost capture accurately and without having to re-enter data into SAP.” This system also supports the group’s compliance efforts. It ensures that we have proper tracking of material, that we use that latest drawings and ensure that we proactively eliminate defects."
