Mecatrónica
Vehicles today are differentiated with intelligent features that integrate mechanical functions with electronic controls that are driven by software and connected by physical wiring. Today, these embedded software systems make up 70 to 90 percent of automotive innovations. Over the next three years, these numbers are expected to grow by another 30 to 40 percent. Managing, integrating, and synchronizing the domain and product information as well as the globally distributed development team and supply chain can be overwhelming for companies using traditional tools and processes.
Siemens Mechatronics solution provides a rich, integrated environment for the development and management of mechanical, electrical, electronic and embedded software content in a single source of product and process knowledge.
Now you can create a highly efficient development environment for delivering successful products that satisfy your customers.
Key Features
Effectively integrate the mechanical, electrical and software domains
Using this integrated, single source of product and process knowledge, engineering teams can retain their domain focus, while working in each other’s context to jointly meet overall development goals. This ensures a clear understanding of design intent and provides continuous change impact across the entire electro-mechanical system, minimizing warranty issues, and improving cross-domain collaboration that fuels innovation. OEMs and suppliers can:
- Leverage integrations with best-in-class tools for software, electronics, and mechanical design allowing engineers to work within familiar tools sets while capturing the information in one location for re-use
- Define and manage interfaces and dependencies between the different mechatronics systems and domains so that the impact of a change can be quickly identified and assessed avoiding iterative loops and rework
- Demonstrate compliance to customer and regulatory requirements through full traceability and control of requirements across systems and across domains
- Manage all the complexities of global product variations by accurately representing the Bill of Material (BOM), including software and electronics, for all product configurations
