 PDF Key takeaways: At the same time that overall product complexity is increasing, manufacturers must also produce custom product configurations, often in small quantities Better collaboration between engineering, process and product planning, and manufacturing is required to manage growing product and variant complexity Collaborative manufacturing provides a key solution for analyzing the product mix to understand its impact on production, allowing companies to optimize overall production throughput Siemens PLM Software is enhancing their PLM portfolio with focused solutions designed to help customers define, sell, and produce today’s complex products more efficiently Introduction Manufacturing enterprises face many challenges. Two that are causing extreme stress are the increasing complexity and variations of their products and the need to be able to simultaneously produce multiple product variations at different production plants distributed globally. For example, a piece of heavy machinery could have multiple equipment options, i.e., loading buckets, lift units, drive train components, and engines. Each option may be dependent

PTC today announced a series of industry-first innovations across its PTC Integrity™ product family of software and systems engineering solutions. The new capabilities will help customers reduce barriers to process modeling, make higher quality, more profitable product line engineering decisions, and manage and re-use assets more easily in the Internet of Things (IoT) era. Smart, connected products are the future of manufacturing, and intrinsically more complex to design, build and service. Products that once operated in isolation are now part of an ecosystem with lifetime interdependencies. Capabilities that used to be implemented through a single engineering discipline, such as a mechanical brake, are now delivered through tightly coupled hardware and software that require close collaboration across disciplines. “Better software and systems engineering enable better, more profitable products,” said Roque Martin, senior vice president and general manager, ALM, PTC. “Software and systems engineering is the lifeblood of smart, connected products. Manufacturers that take advantage of the
