Siemens PLM Software Simcenter The new era of engineering siemens.com/plm/simcenter The Simcenter software portfolio from Siemens PLM Software provides you with all the necessary engineering tools to address market trends and meet customers’ demands. 2 Engineering complex products Smart products, tailored to personal needs, The Simcenter™ software portfolio from preferences and habits – that’s what Siemens PLM Software provides you with all consumers want today. As a manufacturer, the necessary tools to address these market you must fulfill this request, and design trends and meet your customers’ demands. products with increasing complexity. These Simcenter enables you to evolve your products include mechanical and electronic engineering processes from a verification- components, software and controls. centric approach to a more predictive approach by implementing efficient multidisciplinary The industry mandate for energy efficiency also simulation processes. These are backed by the persists. Environmental concerns such as the most powerful testing software and hardware scarcity of fossil fuels and global warming solutions to enable the best possible modeling continue to raise the importance of fuel realism and the most effective component and efficiency. New lightweight materials and final product testing. Simcenter helps drive manufacturing methods are required to your product designs faster than before, address this challenge, as are intelligent resulting in better, less expensive and more systems that optimize energy consumption. reliable products. With Simcenter, you will be Smart products also evolve over time. They able to gain and keep a competitive advantage. include many sensors that optimize product performance after delivery, communicate with each other and their environment, and feed information back to design teams for further improvement. This scenario requires powerful data management and analytics in a digital solution that involves the entire product lifecycle. All these challenges come in addition to classic performance requirements such as comfort and durability, and further pressure the design process. Engineering departments must continuously find ways to deal with more parameters, data and product variations in less time. The traditional verification and validation approach needs to gain efficiency and close the loop with the product in use. Simcenter helps drive your product designs faster than before, resulting in better, less expensive and more reliable products. 3 Implementing predictive engineering analytics With Simcenter, Siemens PLM Software The goal is to deliver new innovations for helps your company deploy a new predictive complex products more effectively. engineering analytics (PEA) approach in PEA will bring revolutionary improvements that support of closed-loop, systems-driven will make simulation a predictive driver of product development. development. PEA achieves these objectives by Closed-loop, systems-driven product introducing new technologies and providing a development involves deconstructing strong alignment between 1D simulation, the design into separable elements, yet 3D computer-aided engineering (CAE), considering their intended interactions and controls development, design exploration, controlling the global system behavior from data analytics and physical testing. The latter the start. Individual elements can be further is essential to reach the appropriate modeling developed as details become available. This realism and enables effective component and approach minimizes risk and avoids late-stage final prototype testing. changes by enabling clear target or boundary Simcenter enables PEA by bringing all setting for subsystems, and full understanding disciplines together under one umbrella. of the global system’s dynamic behavior It will help you build and maintain the digital throughout the development process. twin required for realistic full product This process is traditionally supported by performance prediction, and will enable you continuous verification and validation at the to bring smart products to market faster, adapt component and full-system level, limiting their behavior to use conditions and extend physical prototyping cycles. PEA pushes this their useful life. approach to the next level. It includes all the tactics and tools that will help you predict product behavior in actual use. Deploying a PEA vision will help you develop a replica that remains synchronized with the actual product. Simcenter will help you build and maintain the digital twin required for realistic full product performance prediction. 4 The goal is to deliver new innovations for complex products more effectively. 5 Delivering a portfolio for predicting product performance Siemens PLM Software As an industry leader in test-based Siemens PLM Software also employs a staff of also employs a staff of engineering, Siemens PLM Software has engineering specialists, both on the process engineering specialists, both on pioneered many innovative techniques in level and for each engineering domain.
