V5 Solutions
PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) solutions from Dassault Systèmes allow companies to manage the entire life cycle of their products, from their initial design to their production, and until their end of life. These solutions offer complete management of the value chain, integrating all stages of product development and facilitating collaboration between teams, whether internal or external.
Here is an overview of the main PLM solutions offered by Dassault Systèmes:
01
CATIA
CATIA is a 3D design solution used by engineers for the creation of complex products. Although it is primarily a design tool, it is deeply integrated into the PLM system to allow smooth management of design data throughout the product lifecycle.
- Design of complex products: CATIA enables the creation of complex 3D models for industries such as aerospace, automotive, shipbuilding, etc.
- Collaborative design: CATIA allows geographically dispersed teams to collaborate on design in real-time.
- Simulation and analysis: CATIA offers integrated simulation capabilities to test product performance, allowing the verification of their viability before manufacturing.
02
ENOVIA
ENOVIA is Dassault Systèmes’ flagship product lifecycle management (PLM) solution. It allows the centralization and management of all product-related data while facilitating collaboration between teams.
- Product data management: ENOVIA allows the management of all information associated with the product (design, specifications, documents, changes, etc.) throughout its lifecycle.
- Collaboration and project management: ENOVIA fosters collaboration between different teams, whether they are at different sites or within different departments, while enabling efficient management of tasks and resources.
- Change and version management: Through change management, ENOVIA helps control and track all product developments and ensures information consistency throughout the development process.
03
DELMIA
DELMIA is a solution for manufacturing and process optimization. It is an integral part of PLM solutions, as it connects the design phase to the production phase, enabling the simulation and optimization of manufacturing processes.
- Industrial process simulation: DELMIA allows the simulation of product manufacturing and testing of processes before their actual implementation. This includes simulating production lines, assembly, and logistics.
- Digital manufacturing: DELMIA facilitates the planning and optimization of production processes, from machining to assembly, while reducing the risks of error and waste.
- Collaborative manufacturing: It enables various stakeholders in the production chain to collaborate in real-time.
04
SIMULIA
SIMULIA is an advanced simulation solution used to virtually test products in real-world conditions before their manufacturing. It is integrated into the PLM environment to ensure that products are designed optimally.
- Realistic simulation: SIMULIA allows the simulation of physical performances (mechanical, thermal, fluids, etc.) of products in real conditions to validate their design before production.
- Product optimization: By simulating different scenarios and configurations, SIMULIA helps identify the best possible solutions for a product, thus reducing the risk of defects during production.
- Analysis of complex structures: It enables the modeling and analysis of complex structures in industries such as aerospace, automotive, or energy.
In other words, Dassault Systèmes PLM solutions, such as ENOVIA, CATIA, DELMIA, SIMULIA, and 3DEXPERIENCE, cover the entire life cycle of a product, from design to manufacturing, including simulation and data management. They enable companies to improve efficiency, reduce costs, foster innovation and ensure quality throughout the development process. Combining these tools with cloud collaboration capabilities strengthens business agility and competitiveness in an increasingly interconnected world.
