PROSTEP iVIP

Major Contribution to the PROSTEP iVIP Symposium

As a result of the pandemic, this year’s prostep ivip Symposium was once again held on screen. PROSTEP was nevertheless able to make a major contribution to the virtual event with its many offerings relating to digital product development and manufacturing. Our experts showed what they are made of with a wide range of presentations that have been made available to view on-demand on the symposium’s virtual platform.

Digital twin WP

A Reference Model for Developing Digital Twins

Digital transformation refers to the systematic use of digital technologies to increase operational efficiency and/or develop new, data-driven business models. An important lever for increasing added value is the digital twin. A joint white paper drawn up by 3DSE and PROSTEP describes what a forward-looking digital twin concept might look like.

Adient Aerospace Uses OpenDXM GlobalX From the Cloud

Cloud-based applications can be used out of the box without high initial investments. This is especially interesting for start-ups or newly founded companies like Adient Aerospace. The manufacturer of aircraft seats, a joint venture of automotive seat manufacturer Adient and aircraft manufacturer the Boeing Company, has recently started using the OpenDXM GlobalX data exchange platform as a SaaS model.

ImPaKT

Survey On the Use of Software Tools in Development Processes

The joint project “ICT-enabled model-based impact analysis in product development” or ImPaKT for short is picking up speed. Under the leadership of PROSTEP, the project partners are launching a survey to find out which software tools companies use in product development and for MBSE in particular. You are cordially invited to participate in the survey.

OpenDXM GlobalX from the Cloud: Secure Data Exchange with No Installation Effort

Companies in the automotive, mechanical, plant engineering, shipbuilding, and other industries must be able to seamlessly trace data communication with customers and suppliers while at the same time protecting their intellectual property. It is now possible for them to avoid the effort involved with installing and maintaining a suitable managed file transfer (MFT) solution. PROSTEP provides them with the OpenDXM GlobalX data exchange platform in a highly secure cloud environment, thus making secure data exchange available to an even larger group of users.

Whitepaper - Potentials and Challenges for the Digital Twin in the Shipbuilding Industry

Potentials and Challenges for the Digital Twin in the Shipbuilding Industry – Survey

Everyone is talking about the digital twin – even in the shipbuilding industry. But is there something like an industry-wide understanding of what companies in the maritime industry mean by the term ‘digital twin’ and what they expect from it? To find out, PROSTEP conducted a cross-enterprise survey of shipyards, owners, suppliers and classification societies. Due to the novelty of the topic, we assumed that companies have different ideas about the digital twin. In many cases, it is indeed still considered a vision or a marketing buzzword. But there were also positive opinions: “We shouldn’t let ourselves be intimidated by the novelty of the topic. Many things already represent the ‘state of the art’ and can be used for innovation,” said a shipyard representative. At companies already implementing their first digital twin projects, the level of maturity of these projects varies widely. A key finding of the survey is that better collaboration between all the parties involved in developing and using digital twins would be desirable, but the uniform standards needed to achieve this are lacking.

PROSTEP-BG---CAD

MBSE/MBD extended Designs through the Digital Thread to provide Digital Twin Results

Today, companies in the automotive, aerospace & defense, shipbuilding, consumer products and other verticals have invested millions of dollars and thousands of hours building PLM, ALM, production, scheduling, execution, and quality solutions using standard COTS business applications. The focus is to use standard functions and processes in these tools to reduce costs and increase efficiencies. Now the challenge is how to integrate these systems to provide a “higher level” of process management that cuts across business systems. PROSTEP’s OpenPDM can provide integration across the enterprise level set of applications with the focus of “re-use” and “federation” of data while maintaining “system of record” from the business systems responsible for authoring that key set of data elements.

PROSTEP-SIEMENS-Integration

PROSTEP is PLATINUM Sponsors at SIEMENS Realize Live 2021

Leading SIEMENS systems integration partners, PROSTEP, is now a PLATINUM sponsor at this year’s SIEMENS Realize Live 2021 event. As a longtime SIEMENS partner, PROSTEP gives SIEMENS users the engineering products and services to successfully increase productivity, reduce costs, and provide end-to-end traceability with an integrated engineering framework, OpenPDM. OpenPDM connectors extend SIEMENS’ offerings giving users the ability to connect systems of siloed groups more easily. As a result, this enables enhanced collaboration and speeds the workflow of information by providing the latest product information to all users.

PROSTEP SET Level 4to5 - 1

SET Level Partners Present Simulated Traffic Scenarios

Before automated vehicles are allowed to take to the road, their safety must be tested using numerous simulations as not all driving situations can be tested on real roads. In the joint SET Level project, PROSTEP is working together with 19 partners from industry and academia on developing an appropriate simulation technology for this purpose.
