Product lifecycle management (PLM) is an enterprise, business and information strategy that enables companies to establish Global Information Networks, essential for developing and delivering world class products in today’s highly competitive international marketplace.

You can take advantage of PLM’s openAPIs and industry standards to minimize your data translation costs and extend participation in your enterprise. You can leverage PLM to provide total visibility into the workflows and decision making at all stages in the product lifecycle.

Simulation or computer aided engineering (CAE) using finite element analysis (FEA) is a method of virtually proving a product or design. The design is modeled, often starting with CAD data, within a simulation product suite like Femap on a PC. The simulation model is then virtually tested, using an FEA solver like NX Nastran, to verify that the design will function as expected under defined operating conditions. The results from the simulation provide insight into the behavior of the design and help engineers make design changes and improvements.

The use of simulation in the design process can bring many benefits that will save both time, money and your company’s or product’s reputation, not to mention helping you to innovate faster and get your products to market sooner.

Design (CAD)

Manufacturing companies are driven by increasing pressure to develop innovative products in shorter time frames, while maintaining high levels of quality. Even with mature, capable 3D CAD technology, many companies have failed to significantly improve their design processes, and the benefits of lower costs and shorter cycle times remain elusive.

Transformation of product development begins with the design process, which fuels the entire product lifecycle – from simulation and analysis through tooling design, manufacturing, assembly, service and support.

Manufacturing Engineering (CAM)

Shorter product development cycles are the primary driving force in manufacturing. Continuous innovation and change in designs require more and faster development of numerical control programs, molds, tools and dies required to manufacture the product. Rapid technology change is increasing the complexity of the tools and processes used in manufacturing, and new methodologies are breaking down the walls between design and manufacturing operations.

As the world leader in computer-aided manufacturing, Siemens PLM software helps companies meet the challenge with leading edge solutions. More than point solutions for discrete production tasks, the NX suite of manufacturing software links design and manufacturing to improve productivity throughout tooling and fixture design and NC machining processes.

Analysis (CAE)

Engineers worldwide use Femap for modeling everything from simple solid components to entire spacecraft assemblies. This versatile preprocessor is also used throughout a broad range of engineering disciplines. From simple linear static analysis right through to advanced solutions based on LS-DYNA® from www.LSTC.com, Femap is the software of choice for creating accurate finite element models.

Open, compatible and Windows-based Femap is built on an advanced set of open technologies that allow it to work with almost all digital product definition data. Based on the Parasolid geometry kernel, Femap has direct access to some 35% of the world’s digital product data. In addition, a number of state-of-the-art geometric extensions ensure that Femap is able to work with data from virtually any source, directly and seamlessly. Femap also works with an unusually broad range of finite element solver solutions.
