Siemens PLM Software Shows Small to Medium-Sized Businesses How to Improve Commonization and Reuse
Siemens PLM Software announced the expansion of its “Fast Track to PLM” SMB (small to medium-sized business) educational seminar series to help manufacturers understand how to implement a commonization and reuse strategy that provides global access to reusable products and processes.
While all engineering organizations (100%) report that they are currently reusing designs, top performing groups are further along in the deployment of techniques and technologies to capitalize on design reuse. From product design to analysis, and NC programming, these best in class companies are currently using these technologies to facilitate their design reuse strategies.”
Siemens PLM Software “Fast Track to PLM” seminars highlight how best-in-class companies address commonization and reuse through PLM to:
enable and automate proactive commonization
prepare CAD models for reuse
provide global centralized data access across the value chain
integrate cross functional teams in one standard platform
“Many manufacturers find that commonization and reuse gives them the ability to reduce costs, improve quality and bring products to market at a faster pace,” said Bruce Boes, vice president, Velocity Series™ Marketing, Siemens PLM Software. “Making key data readily available for reuse provides efficiencies in design, manufacturing, testing and compliance. Engineers can quickly search part libraries, make minor changes to fit new product designs and automatically test for manufacturability.”
