Controls Development, Verification & Validation

Automotive OEMs and suppliers are being asked to frontload their design processes, and to combine controls and mechanical engineering continuously along the development cycle. Closed-loop design improves vehicle architecture and allows for earlier detection of integration problems, before initial prototype testing.

Siemens PLM Software solutions enable you to develop successful mechatronics systems that optimize mechanics, electronics and software simultaneously as an integrated system.

Automotive OEMs and suppliers increasingly need to frontload their design processes, and combine controls and mechanical engineering continuously along the development cycle.  Closed-loop design enables better architecture design and allows to detect earlier integration problems, before the first prototype testing. To achieve these goals, car makers are applying mechatronic solutions to develop breakthrough products with brand-differentiating functionalities. These solutions leverage electronics and software in advanced control systems to optimize the performance and efficiency of the mechanical system, and allow you to develop cutting-edge products that are more intelligent and complex, less expensive on one hand and more fun to drive and safe on the other.

Siemens PLM Software solutions give the ability to develop successful mechatronic solutions that optimize mechanics, electronics and software simultaneously as an integrated system. It helps controls and software engineering departments to develop and validate best-in-class mechatronic systems by bringing the “digital twin” engineering approach, which includes both integrating simulation and test and connecting to electrics and electronics (E/E) and application lifecycle management (ALM) focused solutions.
