Siemens Launches Tecnomatix 9.1 Digital Manufacturing Software

By DE Editors

Siemens PLM Software has released Tecnomatix 9.1, which includes new planning workflows and several new and enhanced capabilities. Its improved integration with Teamcenter means that many Tecnomatix capabilities can be launched and/or controlled using the Teamcenter environment.

Tecnomatix 9.1 highlights include:

• Automotive body-in-white (BIW) planning on teamcenter. Teamcenter provides users with a dedicated search list including relevant weld point information. Drag and drop from the list to assign weld points to parts.
• The Excel Live integration allows additional management and control of weld points via Microsoft Excel.
• Open process simulate directly from Teamcenter to assign weld points to operations and these operations to the relevant robots within a 3D environment based on the open JT format. Find the correct weld guns and optimize the positions of the relevant robots.
• Define measurement features, as required, from dimensions to pressure, voltage,  torque, speed, to virtually any other shop floor measurement. New reports bridge the gap between execution and quality control by increasing visibility into conformance with easily understood representations of real-time production.
• The new Gantt chart enables users to sequence operations and define the interdependencies between them in a graphical way.
• The Time Data Card enables users to define operation times based on the methods-time measurement (MTM) standard or users’ own time values.
• New Chinese Anthropometric data enables users to scale the Jack and Jill human models for the assessment of operations based in China.
• New forced influenced postures allow users to analyze situations that require push or pull operations.
• Assembly situations that require stair climbing (e.g., for heavy equipment or aircraft) can now be analyzed.
