With human modeling and simulation, you can improve the safety, efficiency, and comfort of your workplace environment using Jack and Jill virtual humans. Human-centered operations can be analyzed with lifelike models that can be scaled to match different population characteristics.

This episode brings to a close Geometric Solutions’ series of webinars introducing the powerful dimensional analysis software, Siemens PLM Variation Analysis (VSA). Before tools are cut or a single prototype is manufactured, VSA can help reduce the negative impacts of variation on product dimensional quality, time to market, and ROI.

In the face of a national crisis, Waltonen Engineering and Independence Tooling Solutions are working around the clock to manufacture face shields for healthcare workers. Watch Dan Turk, a Certified NX Professional Elite 100 User and SolidEdge Expert, demonstrate how to design a face shield while overcoming material shortages and design flaws to keep our first responders safe!

What is the biggest problem with teach pendant and lead through programming? You can’t do it from home! Robotic Simulation is integral to the manufacturing process. If social distancing is stopping you from physically training your robot, try Process Simulate- an offline programming tool that creates robotic paths and programs at the same time through simulation.

How can you find collisions before they happen, optimize the timelines of moving parts, all while creating an eye-catchy prototype that wins business every time? Validate products faster and save up to 92% over physical prototypes with Siemens’ NX Animation Designer.

When it comes to product quality, dimensional variations are common contributors to product failures and recalls. After a design is complete and prototypes are ordered, many companies find that not all pieces fit or function well together. Manufacturers often order hundreds of prototypes just to get 1 or 2 working models. When these models fail, it can be difficult to understand what the point of error is. As a result, prototype phases are often lengthy, expensive, and inefficient.

While the manufacturing industry is flooded with compressed timelines, increased quality, lower costs, streamlined productivity, and high demand for innovation, manufacturing engineers are primarily concerned with the validation process, cost overruns, meeting production targets, launch delays, and enhanced flexibility. With ever-increasing industry drivers, manufacturers are constantly attempting to mitigate risk. Cost overruns and missed deadlines are project killers. However, there is a way to perform manufacturing planning activities earlier when the ability to change and the cost of change are more forgiving.

Watch Dan Turk, Certified NX Professional Elite 100 User and Solid Edge Expert, explain:

• What is PMI?
• Why is there a debate to use it or not use it?
• Why should you use it?
• How do PMI and NX work together?
• How can PMI be implemented at your company?

Quarantine day 50… time to un-stall the layout design project for your next production line. Can this be done from home? Watch Curtis DeSaele, Director of Technology at Geometric Solutions, demonstrate this and more during this expert-led live webinar:

• Quickly design and visualize layouts of production lines
• Use drag & drop tools include standard components into your line
• Leverage Point Cloud Scan Data for the retrofit of existing plants
• Color-coded visualization of your manufacturing equipment, including component type, design changes, suppliers, investment cost and build dates

Would you like your line foreman to receive automated texts if a part is getting close to falling out of specifications? Who should be notified if it is not fixed within 24 hours? Watch Curtis DeSaele, Director of Technology at Geometric Solutions, demonstrate this and more during this expert-led live webinar.

Did we mention the best part? DPV can be used from any remote work location to allow teams to collaborate and perform non-conformance root-cause analysis.
