Germanischer Lloyd Prepares Launch of Ship Lifecycle Management
PROSTEP supports development of the master data management program.
Support for MEYER Group’s multi-CAD strategy
The Meyer Group is pursuing a multi-CAD strategy as part of an effort to harmonize the heterogeneous IT system landscapes at the various shipyards. In the future, engineers will use 3DEXPERIENCE CATIA to model hulls, interior structures and superstructures, while the CAD marine design system from CADMATIC will be used for infrastructural elements (pipework, ventilation shafts, cabling, etc.)
Digitalizing information logistics in shipbuilding
Shipbuilders have special requirements when it comes to the horizontal integration of heterogeneous CAx process chains and the vertical integration of authoring systems in the overarching data management systems. This is why we developed an extension to the OpenPDM integration platform based on our proven technology and designed specifically for the maritime industry.
Record year for the PROSTEP INC Group in North America
Major projects in the automotive, aerospace and defense industries for PLM & ERP integrations, PLM migrations, secure B2B data exchange and lightweight Technical Data Package publication (TDP) help PROSTEP’s North American subsidiary achieve a record year. Despite COVID-19, PROSTEP Inc. increased its revenues by around 40 percent in the last fiscal year, which ended on June 30, 2020.
PROSTEP presents new traceability solution OpenCLM
With OpenCLM, PROSTEP presents a lightweight, easy-to-configure web application for traceability and cross-discipline configuration lifecycle management. This makes it easier for companies to assess project progress in the individual domains during system development and trace the development steps and deliverables.
Automotive supplier Continental migrates PLM data via OpenPDM
Continental AG, one of the world’s largest automotive suppliers, has been using PROSTEP’s OpenPDM suite for a year now. Our platform for PLM integration, migration and collaboration not only reduces the data migration effort for the carve-out of the subsidiary Vitesco, but also supports Continental in harmonizing its heterogeneous PLM landscape.

OpenDESC.com offers analysis of scan data
The digital representation of production plants is a prerequisite for material flow simulations and the analysis of bottlenecks when planning or making changes to the plants. PROSTEP now offers its customers a new service for this purpose: The automated analysis of 3D scan data and conversion of this data into digital twins that can be used to simulate production processes.
ProProS research project enters crucial phase
Following successful completion of an assessment of the current status, the joint research project ProProS being carried out by the Bremen-based Lürssen shipyard group, the Machine Tool Laboratory (WZL) at RWTH University in Aachen and PROSTEP AG is entering the crucial phase. The task now is to develop new methods for end-to-end digitalization of the shipyard’s manufacturing and assembly processes.
