Heavy equipment engineering: Integrating and digitalizing the entire design and engineering chain for increased competitive advantage
The heavy equipment engineering industry is facing key challenges, such as demands for increased machine productivity, durability, comfort and increased fuel economy.
Owners and operators of machines look to drive down the cost of ownership and to complete projects faster, while being faced with tighter regulations.
The key question that manufacturers need to answer is how to increase machine capacity while also increasing fuel efficiency. We call this heavy equipment performance engineering. The results are clear and include benefits like:
- Reduced development costs and reduced time to market through multi-attribute balancing
- Designed new machine generation thanks to new heavy equipment engineering technologies adoption
- Developed digital twins that can predict the real world behavior of products throughout the product lifecycle
By implementing Siemens PLM Sofware’s solutions for heavy equipment engineering, off-highway manufacturers can control multiple aspects of the engineering process efficiently by implementing predictive engineering analytics.
Siemens PLM Software portfolio for heavy equipment markets helps you achieve high performance design, simulation and test with increased engineering accuracy and development productivity to address real industry issues.
