PLM for Component Manufacturers in the cloud provides benefits to small and medium-sized companies
PLM for cloud is changing the product development process and having a fundamental impact on the way a business operates. In this final podcast of our Teamcenter X solution, Mary McDonald, Global Industry Marketing Leader for small and medium business at Siemens Digital Industries Software, and Tim Yerby, Solution Director for Industrial Machinery at Siemens Digital Industries Software, discuss some of the challenges companies face when doing product development, design, and innovation, implementing a digital environment and new technology. Companies are realizing they have limited resources, so what are the challenges and advantages of PLM for component manufacturers relevant to smaller manufacturers? This final episode provides key points of what PLM for Component Manufacturers provides: Manage CAD and PLM systems in small to medium-sized companies without the luxury of additional staff. Understand what will work in your current system that can handle the CAD data without changing the CAD system through PLM. Manage the engineering change process, running the course of integrations which does not end with PLM. Ensure the organization can utilize your CAD and BOM data (ERP, MRP and manufacturing system. Remove barriers that many manufacturers face by helping to create a more efficient process. Provide out-of-the-box solutions to most customers, even if it needs some customization; therefore, any consulting or services cost is much smaller. Use cloud or SaaS to provide a significant piece of software with a substantial commitment in capital and resources. Connect with Tim Yerby: LinkedIn Connect with Mary Macdonald: LinkedIn

PLM for Machine Builders (built on Teamcenter X) addresses manufacturers' challenges working in a CTO and ETO environment
This podcast discusses how the cloud changes the product development process, fundamentally impacting how a business operates. Machine builders can blend their engineer-to-order (ETO) and configure-to-order (CTO) demands.    Engineer-to-order (ETO) comes inherently with increased risk of doing something for the first time, so it naturally follows that companies must find ways to reuse previous designs, leading to a configure-to-order (CTO) way of working.   In our third podcast in the Teamcenter X solution series, our host Chris Pennington, Global Industry Marketing Leader for Industrial Machinery at Siemens Digital Industries Software, interviews Jaques Mostert, Solution Director for Industrial Machinery at Siemens Digital Industries Software. They will discuss how customers for industrial machinery will always require a level unique to each machine as companies sometimes make different products. This episode includes some of the following key points: There is some level of reuse possible in production, as it can only be a partial copy of what was done before, resulting in an engineering environment where ETO and CTO practices are mixed. Smarter machines become integral to the product, providing greater complexity and profitability. A managed environment provides multidisciplinary teams collaborating in one place in real-time. ETO/CTO provides out-of-the-box, configured-to-order products. The cloud solution gives the ability to take control of CAD data – CAD systems supplied by Siemens and the other main CAD vendors. Factories are smarter and more automated, meaning the machines are becoming smarter, connected with more sensors, and controlled by sophisticated automation systems.   Connect with Jaques Mostert: LinkedIn   Connect with Chris Pennington: LinkedIn Hosted on Acast.

Teamcenter X and AWS provide a cloud-secure comprehensive infrastructure
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is architected to be the most flexible and secure cloud computing environment available today. The core infrastructure is built to satisfy the security requirements of the military, global banks, and other high-sensitivity organizations.   In addition, AWS uses the same secure hardware and software to build and operate each of the regions and service offerings to associate that it is supply-vetted and accepted as safe enough for top-secret information, benefitting all customers globally. In our second podcast in the Teamcenter X industry solutions series, we join our host Chris Pennington, Global Industry Marketing Leader for Industrial Machinery at Siemens Digital Industries Software, and Joe Rosing, WW GTM Leader, Industrial Manufacturing at AWS. They will discuss a new perspective on how the cloud changes the product development process and how a business operates. And how AWS makes security a top priority, architected to be the most flexible and secure cloud computing environment available today. Malintent can find a server from anywhere, whether it's in the cloud or not. So, AWS has a dedicated team of engineers and investigators who proactively build algorithms and mechanisms to detect and prevent service misuse. They respond quickly if customers or third parties bring suspected misuse to their attention.   This episode includes vital points on the following: How AWS provides resiliency in the cloud with a comprehensive infrastructure How availability zones isolate faults that could impact workload resilience, preventing them from impacting other zones in the region, ensuring network performance efficiency The design principles that assist in automatically recovering from workload failure The five reasons for small to medium-sized businesses to operate within the cloud to scale deployment or growth globally   Connect with Joseph Rosing: LinkedIn   Connect with Chris Pennington: LinkedIn Hosted on Acast.
