Automotive OEM

Tecnomatix solutions for automotive OEMs provides the competitive advantage you need by:

  • Accelerating project time by as much as 20%
  • Shortening ramp-up time by as much as 15%
  • Increasing throughput up to 10%
  • Cutting Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) by as much as 20%
  • Reducing labor and prototype costs by 5% and more
  • Increasing worker productivity by up to 10%

Planning an Assembly Process

The Tecnomatix for Automotive Assembly planning environment facilitates multi-user and multi-site planning and engineering. The system lets you create hierarchical representations of final assembly manufacturing processes Bills of Processes(BOP's). The BOP captures process logic and flow, and defines the relationships between operations, manufacturing resources and product parts. Tecnomatix planning tools enable the design of optimal assembly sequences and facilitate the management of product variants and their changes.

Tecnomatix for Automotive Assembly allows early evaluation of manufacturing assembly times, project budgets and manufacturing costs. It enables line balancing and provides early early estimation of assembly line performance, including throughput and resource utilization.

Designing, Optimizing and Shop Floor Documentation

Tecnomatix for Automotive Assembly allows a top-down approach, from assembly sequence analysis to detailed 3D design of assembly work stations. It also enables 3D simulation of complex robotic and human operations, such as insertion of car seats, instrument panels and windshields, ergonomic analysis and work sequences, and execution time optimization.

Tecnomatix for Automotive Assembly discrete-event process simulations enable the planning of different order sizes and product mixes. Hierarchical models allow the optimization of line performance, resource utilization, bottleneck detection and buffer sizes.

It also facilitates off-line programming (OLP) of machine programs and generates work instructions for assembly line workers and suppliers. You can produce optimized, easy-to-maintain schedules by determining the sequence of orders and assigning them to the lines.
