Due to the corona pandemic, we will be holding the traditional PROSTEP TECHDAY as online event this year so that customers and interested parties can find out about new products and news from our company without risk to their health. The live sessions will take place on November 17, 2020 and will be recorded. Please, save the date.
Dr. Henrik Weimer, who was recently appointed spokesman of the board of the prostep ivip association, is primarily responsible for the corporate IT architecture for digital design manufacturing and service capabilities at Airbus. In an interview, he explains the challenges facing the aircraft manufacturer in the design of its PLM architectures and where the aerospace industry is headed.
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.
Setting up an IT landscape from scratch is a challenge, but at the same time it offers an opportunity to do things completely differently. OSRAM Continental took advantage of this opportunity and moved its entire IT infrastructure to the cloud. The two-year-old joint venture uses PROSTEP’s cloud-based data exchange service to exchange product data with customers and suppliers.
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.
The increasing complexity of products and processes is making it more and more difficult for companies to keep track of the current status of their development projects and seamlessly trace all development steps. The traceability of all relevant information across system and domain boundaries not only requires new tools but also opens up new perspectives. The newly created knowledge about relationships can be used over the entire product lifecycle through to the operating phase for new use cases and business models. This makes traceability the key to digitalization.
PROSTEP offers a variety of proven integration solutions for the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. To provide Dassault Systèmes customers with even better support in integrating their heterogeneous PLM system landscapes, we are expanding our portfolio to include official integrations for 3DEXPERIENCE with Aras Innovator and Oracle Primavera P6 and we are developing new integration packages for EXALEAD.
OpenPDM provides the basis for many of the successful integration projects that we have implemented in recent years. One example is the Webasto Group, which is not only migrating its CATIA installation to 3DEXPERIENCE but also replacing its heterogeneous PDM landscape company-wide with the PLM suite 4PEP from ILC Solutions.
The stable linking together of two PLM systems or a PLM and an ERP system is not rocket science, and our customers have been using OpenPDM to do exactly that for years. PLM system landscapes are however becoming increasingly heterogeneous and subject to dramatic change.
OpenPDM is far more than just the leading PLM integration platform. Our standard connectors connect the PDM/PLM world to all the IT worlds relevant to product development, be it ERP, Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) or the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). OpenPDM not only makes it possible for us to synchronize data between the connected systems but also implement new concepts for cross-system data linking.
When strong partnerships occur, the ability to bring the best strengths and talents from both companies emerge to deliver more impactful, comprehensive, and complementary software solutions to their user base.
