Ferretti Group Selects Software from Siemens to Optimize Yacht Design and Production

Ferretti Group has selected solutions from Siemens’ product lifecycle management (PLM) software business to help further optimize the design and production of its prestigious Ferretti Yachts and CRN brand. Established in Italy, Ferretti Group will deploy Teamcenter® and NX™ software. Ferretti Group will also leverage the Fibersim™ portfolio to further enhance its composites design and production processes.

"We have traditionally relied on our deep knowledge of yacht design coupled with the finest expertise in hand-crafted production,” said Giuliano Capizzi, Ferretti Group Chief Information Officer. “We now need to digitally capture that knowledge and automate production to enhance global efficiency and data security. With Siemens’ PLM solution for ship design, we can reduce time and costs by digitalizing our entire process, making product data instantly available through Teamcenter, not only within the production process, but also to the entire company. And using NX, we expect to significantly accelerate product design and construction for new ships and boats.”

Ferretti Yachts and CRN, together with the other Ferretti Group brands Riva, Pershing, Itama, Mochi Craft and Custom Line, are on the cutting edge of the nautical sector due to their constant research of innovative products and process solutions. Ferretti Yachts produces fiberglass flybridge vessels from 45 to 96 feet, while CRN is specialized in the design and construction of fully-custom steel and aluminum yachts up to 100 meters in length.

"The boats created by Ferretti Group are characterized by high quality, high security and excellent performance at sea, as well as the exclusivity of the design and the timeless charm that make them highly recognizable in the nautical world,” said Franco Megali, Managing Director Italy and MEA, Siemens PLM Software, Italy. "We are proud of this partnership, and Siemens PLM Software looks forward to seeing how its marine software solutions will help Ferretti Group realize innovation.”
