Many of the manufacturing and product development companies I visit, big and small, struggle with similar challenges. Here are the five most common ones I have encountered:
#1: The employees in the design department spend a lot of time maintaining, supporting and providing product information to other departments at the company.
#2: The company’s development department lacks a structured way to manage changes. This increases the chances of things that have been decided never being carried out. In the worst case, this results in incorrect purchases, production based on the wrong documentation and delivering the wrong solution to the customer.
#3: The company sometimes finds it difficult to stick to cost targets and delivery times as it works in an unstructured and inefficient way and therefore has to duplicate a lot of work.
#4: It is difficult to get an overview and meet all the requirements that have been agreed with the customer, increasing the risk of not delivering the right technical solution at the right cost or the right time.
#5: When the customer calls and wants his or her products serviced, the company does not have full control of what has been delivered to the customer and can therefore not offer a quick and efficient service solution. In the worst case, this leads to a production stop for the customer.
I will be sharing my thoughts and experiences on each of these challenges. Follow Symetri’s blog
At Symetri, we have a solution called SOVELIA PLM. It can support you to solve the above problems . Sovelia can be implemented gradually and extended as required. Both parts are often a requirement of success. Contact me and I’ll tell you more andreas.nasman@symetri.com or call +46 31 703 40.
Bruk av simuleringsprogramvare tidlig i produktutviklingsprosessen kan være avgjørende for å designe produkter av høy kvalitet raskere og til en lavere kostnad. Ved å bruke avanserte verktøy basert på Finite Element Method (FEM) og Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) kan ingeniører få verdifull innsikt allerede under designprosessen.
En simulering er en etterligning av et virkelig system eller en virkelig prosess. Simulering brukes til å forstå, forutsi eller analysere hvordan et system oppfører seg under ulike forhold. For å lage en simulering må du bruke databehandlingsteknikker for å løse de underliggende matematiske modellene. I produksjonsindustrien brukes simulering til å teste, analysere og optimalisere produkter og prosesser før man bygger fysiske prototyper eller starter produksjonen.
I denne veiledningen forklarer vi hva en BOM er, hvordan den fungerer og hvorfor den er så viktig for en vellykket produktutvikling. Enten du er ny på området eller ønsker å optimalisere BOM-prosessene dine, er dette den ultimate ressursen for deg.
