Lifecycle visualization mockup

Using real-time digital mockup tools to detect and solve design issues early in your product lifecycle

Benefits Summary • Reduces or eliminates ® software’s lifecycle visualization mockup capabilities comprise physical prototypes using the industry’s most powerful real-time digital prototyping solution. By production-proven digital enabling your design teams to leverage advanced multi-CAD 3D visualization, mockup capabilities to large-scale product assembly analysis and universal collaboration capabilities visualize and analyze in a single solution, Teamcenter dramatically reduces – and in some cases lightweight and precise entirely eliminates – expensive physical prototypes. The solution also plays a virtual prototypes crucial role in improving your total quality program and facilitating your time- • Enables you to find and to-market initiatives by enabling you to identify and resolve issues before resolve form/fit/function they ever become costly problems. design issues early in the design process with sophisti- Taking advantage of the industry’s leading digital prototyping solution cated spatial analysis tools Teamcenter’s lifecycle visualization mockup capabilities enable design teams including clearance and to create high-level digital prototypes comprised of thousands of parts and interference analysis components. Digital prototyping is an extremely cost effective alternative to capabilities physical prototyping that lets product makers realize enormous cost savings, • Provides superior productivity improvements and reductions in cycle times. performance and rich-data support by leveraging open By leveraging the lifecycle visualization mockup solution, design teams can by design technology and quickly build a high-level digital prototype, distribute the universally viewable the standard JT format prototype to widely dispersed team Features members, analyze • All lifecycle visualization its interrelated base, standard and components, simulate professional capabilities the product’s oper­ (presented in their entirety in ations, enable team their respective fact sheets) members to annotate • Motion playback that enables their concerns and you to detect interferences rapidly incorporate dynamically alternative design concepts.
