SIEMENS PLM Software has announced a new integrated machine design solution to create value for companies that develop and market machine tools and production machines. The Mechatronics Concept Designer offers a systems engineering approach to machine design that is said to capture ‘voice of the customer’ input, while managing early require ments and facilitating the simultaneous definition and simulation of the mechanical, electrical and automation software found in today’s tools.
According to Siemens, the interac tive simulation capability is based on gaming technology that can signifi cantly reduce development time and improve product quality for the global machine design industry.
The software works in conjunction with Siemens Teamcenter software.
