This video features a demonstration of the manufacturing layout application, part of Tecnomatix—a comprehensive portfolio of digital manufacturing solutions.
Tecnomatix is tightly integrated with Teamcenter and NX. In this video, you can see that the customer data has already been imported into Active Workspace inside NX. In this case, it’s an assembly plant.
You can easily define boundary conditions in the context of the plant, providing measurements for length, width and height. The created boundary conditions act as an input for the line design.
The NX Reuse Library is available to pull specific components for line design. Components from the library include connectors to allow for accurate layouts. This reduces the amount of time needed to build an assembly line.
If you decide to move any of these connected components, the entire line will move with them.
While 2D is convenient for an overhead view and mapping your line, you can change to a 3D view for a closer examination of the line at any time.
Speaking of 3D layouts, the Tecnomatix portfolio also offers a powerful 3D rendering tool for accurate representation of an assembly line’s digital twin. This is useful during the sales cycle and the planning phase.
With Tecnomatix, you’ll benefit from a quick turnaround of designs, leveraging standardization and automation during your design process.
