Mathcad Prime 11 is here to help engineers do more with their time. Of course, being Mathcad, version 11 doesn’t try to reinvent the wheel. Instead, it makes calculation processes smoother, faster, and more responsive where it matters. If you’re already using Mathcad Prime, you’re sure to discover some valuable improvements with version 11. If you’ve never used Mathcad Prime before, you’re in for a treat.
Semantic definition is a key feature of Model-Based Definition (MBD) that ensures precision, clarity and regulatory compliance throughout the product lifecycle.
Agile development is the leading software creation methodology. It can boost efficiency, speed and creativity. It’s no surprise that in a 2021 McKinsey survey, companies that implemented agile development effectively reported an average 30% gain in efficiency.
PLM helps manufacturers manage product data, streamline collaboration and accelerate development. However, without strong adoption across your organisation, PLM cannot deliver its full value. Companies must do everything possible to ensure their teams fully adopt and use their PLM systems.
Generative design, where designers incorporate AI algorithms into their processes to create and evaluate multiple designs faster, is the hottest topic in product development right now. The opportunities are there for all to see: the ability to design better, faster, cheaper and more sustainably. However, nothing in life is perfect, and generative design brings a range of challenges that you need to navigate if you’re going to reap the rewards.
Manufacturers are prioritising sustainability not just for environmental benefits but to comply with a growing range of regulations. Frameworks such as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive, Environmental Product Declaration, and the Digital Product Passport impose stringent requirements, with significant penalties for non-compliance.
ISO 26262 is an international standard that regulates functional safety in automotive electronics and electrical systems (E/E systems). It aims to minimise hazards from system malfunctions, so vehicles can operate safely under all conditions.
PTC has been incorporating artificial intelligence in its portfolio of manufacturing software solutions for over a decade. Users have long been able to reap the benefits of machine learning and generative AI in solutions like ThingWorx and ServiceMax.
A Bill of Materials (BOM) has long been used to define a product and its individual parts. However, smart manufacturing organisations have discovered that with the right software, you can use your BOM to oversee the entirety of a product’s data throughout its lifecycle, ensuring a unified, accurate system bringing in data from physical and digital environments.
