Dassault Systemes Launches DELMIA PLM Express.


Dedicated Solutions for Small and Medium-sized Manufacturers

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. -- Dassault Systemes Dassault Systemes (Dassault Systèmes S.A.) (Pronounced - Dasoh) (NASDAQ: DASTY; Euronext: 13065) is a leading company specializing in 3D and PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) software.  (DS) (NASDAQ NASDAQ

:DASTY) (Paris:DSY DSY Drum Storage Yard ), a world leader in 3D and Product Lifecycle Product lifecycle or product life cycle is the course of a product's sales and profits over time. The five stages of each product lifecycle are product development, introduction, growth, maturity and decline.  Management (PLM (Product Life cycle Management) A comprehensive information system that coordinates all aspects of a product from initial concept to its eventual retirement. Sometimes called the "digital backbone" of a product, it includes the requirements phase, analysis and design ), announces DELMIA DELMIA Digital Enterprise Lean Manufacturing Interactive Application  PLM Express, a comprehensive set of digital manufacturing solutions that makes PLM technology easily accessible to smaller businesses within the supply chain such as part suppliers, engineering firms and tooling providers. DELMIA PLM Express offers distinct role-based applications that allow smaller companies to better connect with larger organizations and become more efficient and profitable.

DELMIA PLM Express is perfect for 5 to 50-plus person companies or any organization that has a need for an entry level PLM value channel offering for manufacturing. It delivers all the functionality and benefits of DELMIA in a way that allows customers to select a role-based solution that best matches their business needs.

"PLM is an excellent solution to help manufacturers become more competitive." said Philippe Charles, CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board.  of DELMIA "Companies that invest in digital manufacturing for PLM can expect faster time to market, fewer quality problems and lower start-up costs. Many smaller suppliers realize this value, but do not have the need to deploy a full PLM strategy at their level. DELMIA PLM Express enables these companies with the right set of PLM technologies to better focus on their targeted pain areas, to energize en·er·gize

DELMIA PLM Express is offered in five role-based domains for manufacturing with dedicated, easy-to-deploy solutions within each discipline:

Resource Planning Resource planning may refer to:
  • Enterprise resource planning (ERP)
  • Manufacturing resource planning (MRP and MRPII)
  • Distribution Resource Planning (DRP)
  • Human resources (HR)
: Provides a complete solution for the resource planner with capabilities to model in 3D and validate the tooling and complete manufacturing workcells in the virtual world. This allows companies to significantly cut costs by eliminating production stoppage for set-up validation on the shop floor and by eliminating rework costs.

Robotics: Delivers comprehensive robotic simulation and offline programming capabilities that include dedicated functionality for arc and spot welding Spot welding

A resistance-welding process in which coalescence is produced by the flow of electric current through the resistance of metals held together under pressure. Usually the upper electrode moves and applies the clamping force.
 applications. By validating all robotic movements and programming in the virtual world, companies save time and money through elimination of production stoppage on plant floor equipment. This solution also enables faster development of new processes, as existing data can be stored for re-use.

Ergonomics: Delivers the capability to build kinematic kin·e·mat·ics  
n. (used with a sing. verb)
The branch of mechanics that studies the motion of a body or a system of bodies without consideration given to its mass or the forces acting on it.
 human models and teach various human tasks, simulate processes and to optimize the human work space. In addition, users can perform risk factor analysis to maximize human comfort, safety, and performance through a wide range of advanced tools that comprehensively evaluate important elements of a human's interactions with a workcell. This solution allows companies to benefit from improved worker efficiency and lower health-related costs.

Process Planning: Designed for the planner or design engineer, it delivers assembly process planning, validation and simulation tools, plus assembly animation and dynamic authoring capabilities for assembly shop floor work instructions. Planning earlier in the design stages with the ability to capture and reuse data for shop floor implementation saves companies valuable ramp-up time and avoids costly delays in production.

Controls: Offers Smart Device Builder capabilities for the engineer to create the mechanical, kinematical and logical behavior of devices that can then be used to validate a PLC program in a virtual environment. In addition, Virtual Commissioning solutions allow control engineers to debug To correct a problem in hardware or software. Debugging software means locating the errors in the source code (the program logic). Debugging hardware means finding errors in the circuit design (logical circuits) or in the physical interconnections of the circuits.  PLC code weeks before the integration of the physical equipment occurs on the shop floor, significantly reducing the ramp-up time of manufacturing systems and costs for maintenance operations. By catching PLC programming errors through simulation, control engineers also reduce the risk of damage to physical factory equipment.
