Product Lifecycle Management
In a complex and fast-moving environment, developing new products with the typical silos approach becomes more and more difficult. Data has become very important for decision-making. The need for collaboration and data sharing is real. Companies must turn to Product Life Management (PLM) technologies allowing modern sharing of information and connected product development.
Optimec possesses experience and expertise in realizing business assessments of as it is product development processes and leading the implementation of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform with efficient PLM methodologies.
Manufacturing Simulation
Simulation is useful beyond product design; it also helps to simulate manufacturing processes reducing risks of part or tooling defects.
Optimec leverages the best-in-class software solutions to simulate metal forming processes such as sheet metal forming and hot forging as well as joining processes like welding and riveting. Simulation technologies offer tremendous opportunities for gains by validating parts’ final shape and preventing tooling failure.

Engineering Process Automation
Engineering simulation capabilities are constantly growing with the improvements on the software technologies and with the acceleration of computing power. This progress opens the door to execute more simulations impacting the quality and reliability of simulations, and thus products. Running many simulations for Design of Experiment (DoE) or Optimization routine is more and more popular.
Optimec assists customers automating simulation workflows using custom scripts and tools like SIMULIA ISIGHT or the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.
