Digital Manufacturing - Future 4 PLM

DIGITAL MANUFACTURING

Digital Manufacturing

Digital manufacturing is the use of an integrated, computer-based system comprised of simulation, 3D visualization, analytics and collaboration tools to create product and manufacturing process definitions simultaneously. Digital manufacturing evolved from manufacturing initiatives such as design for manufacturability (DFM), computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM), flexible manufacturing and lean manufacturing that highlight the need for collaborative product and process design.

Many of the long-term benefits from product lifecycle management (PLM) cannot be achieved without a comprehensive digital manufacturing strategy. Digital manufacturing is a key point of integration between PLM and shop floor applications and equipment, enabling the exchange of product-related information between design and manufacturing groups. This alignment allows manufacturing companies to achieve time-to-market and volume goals, as well as realize cost savings by reducing expensive downstream changes.

NX Design

Siemens NX software is a flexible and powerful integrated solution that helps you deliver better products faster and more efficiently. NX delivers the next generation of design, simulation, and manufacturing solutions that enable companies to realize the value of the digital twin.

CAM

NX Manufacturing

Drive efficient end-to-end part manufacturing operations and deliver high-precision parts through digitalization. Program CNC machine tools, control robotic cells, drive 3D printers and monitor quality using one software system. Digitally transform your part manufacturing business to gain productivity and increase profitability.

CAE

Simcenter

Engineering departments today must develop smart products that integrate mechanical functions with electronics and controls, utilize new materials and manufacturing methods and deliver new designs within ever shorter design cycles. This requires current engineering practices for product performance verification to evolve into a Digital Twin approach, which enables to follow a more predictive process for systems driven product development.

3DP

3D Printing/Additive Manufacturing

Siemens NX provides all of the necessary capabilities, from design to print to post-print validation, in a single integrated system. Siemens NX is industrializing additive manufacturing so you can not only prototype, but also manufacture ground-breaking products with this exciting new technology. This allows you to reimagine your products, reinvent your manufacturing and even rethink your business models with additive manufacturing technology.
