Siemens Digital Industries Software FORAN Technology
FORAN’s 3D boat design capabilities are based on advanced information technology relating to data management, interactive 3D visualization, surface, and solid modeling, as well as on specific shipbuilding technology.
The system architecture combines an in-house modeling and visualization kernel which is finely tuned to meet the needs of the shipping industry with high-performance basic software components that give the different modules a shared look and feel, allow integrated development, and make it easy to internationalize.
The data management system is scalable, reliable, and efficient to administer. A robust drafting kernel allows the integration of 2D plans with 3D models and is fully compatible with current industry standards.
FORAN supports the broadest range of collaborative engineering environments, such as wide area networks (WAN), through terminal servers and database replication.
As an integral part of a company’s IT infrastructure, FORAN makes it possible to share engineering information with PLM, ERP and MRP systems, FEM tools, and other specific CAE applications. FORAN can exchange data in multiple formats, such as DWG, DXF, IGES, STEP, VDA, VRML, and XML.
FORAN incorporates many advanced CIM features to optimize manufacturing and these can be customized for any production equipment. They include plate marking and cutting; plate bending by roll or line-heating; profile marking, cutting and bending; welding robots; panel lines; pin or plate jigs for curved panels; grinding; painting; dimensional control and pipe cutting and bending.
