- [Narrator] A&D manufacturers like you
have common questions.
You wanna know how to better handle
the complexity of different programs,
reducing time to market for new products,
how to increase manufacturing visibility
with relevant KPIs and advanced reporting,
and how to manage your limited resources
with the proper skills to ensure product quality.
Opcenter and Teamcenter
can support you with these challenges,
enabling intelligent manufacturing.
Velocity, flexibility, and accuracy are key benefits
when you're looking to introduce
a new product into the market.
For each new product introduction,
you must prototype and validate the design,
define the manufacturing process
including all quality checks
as well as new work instructions and documents
to guide your shop floor operators.
Your manufacturing engineers can create a bill of materials
and bill of process for new products
by leveraging an advanced environment
where work instructions can be easily edited and reviewed.
Documents, tools, and consumable parts
are associated to each operation.
Structures and data flow through preconfigured workflows
from PLM to MES.
Opcenter supports the shop floor operator at every step
by offering guidelines,
rendering graphic representations of the routing,
and showing operation details.
As an A&D manufacturer,
you must ensure high quality standards.
While older quality planning processes
were based on the standardized advanced product
quality planning methodology,
its spreadsheet format caused many problems
such as unstructured filing of project documents,
lack of coordination across versions of documents,
lack of deadline transparency,
and lack of visibility and simplicity for suppliers.
Siemens Quality Solutions supports every stage
of the product development lifecycle
across all areas of the company,
integrating requirements into the process
to ensure they're met while providing access
and transparency to all deliverables.
Teamcenter Quality provides a tool for you to initiate
and monitor the progress of deliverables
and facilitate the completion
of required quality milestones.
By assigning checklists to deliverables under an event,
your quality managers ensure that targets are met
for deliverables across domains.
A&D companies are often large enterprises
with production spread across plants
and different countries.
One of the main challenges across these plants
is the lack of qualified workers.
New technologies, materials and processes,
including those pertaining to safety,
are arising in ever shorter cycles.
These rapid developments mean that the workforce
must acquire new knowledge and continuously upskill.
Opcenter provides complete support for your operators
during their daily job.
It shows the list of tasks that need to be performed,
enabling them to track their activities
and collect relevant production data,
like used tools or assembled parts.
Documents and work instructions are shown
including a rich 3D experience.
Measurements also can be collected directly
from the production equipment,
and failures can be detected by leveraging visual support.
In A&D manufacturing,
operators often need to work
inside areas without a network connection
like aircraft fuselages, or submarines.
Therefore they lose the MES support
regarding work instructions
and traceability is impacted by missing data collection.
With standard solutions,
they're forced to use outdated means like paper.
Offline capabilities enable your operators
to utilize mobile devices and execute manufacturing activity
in environments without access to a network.
They can be supported by MES capabilities
ensuring full traceability of as-built conditions
including non-conformances and data collection.
Whether it's to address growing information demands,
or to accelerate productivity
while improving quality,
A&D manufacturers are seeing a significant growth
of manufacturing automation, iot devices,
sensors, and quality assessment tools on the shop floor.
As these tools multiply, so does the data they generate.
You must be able to contextualize
and use this increased amount of data
to make better decisions.
Opcenter provides powerful analytics
and reporting tools to help you analyze operational
and business data at the site, regional, and global levels.
Opcenter enables you to present the right data
to the right people
with the appropriate visualization for different users
including reports and operational and analytics dashboards.
