Invitation

Feb 3, 2021: India – With the theme of showcasing “Digitalization to realize a thriving Aerospace, Defense and Space ecosystem,” Dassault Systèmes at the 13^th edition of Aero India 2021 showcases technology solutions to Improve Supply Chain Collaboration, to Design for Flexible Manufacturing, to Manage Complex Systems and Accelerate Program Integration and to Deliver High Performance Operations. Experts from Dassault Systèmes will be present at booth numbers A6.6 and A6.8, to discuss how to bridge the gap between the virtual and real world to accelerate concept to operations by 50% through industry solution experiences based on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.

Across the Aerospace & Defense industry, rising customer expectations for lower costs, higher standards and increased capabilities along with growing program complexity continually make it more challenging to compete. As systems become more complex to design, build and deliver, OEMs and suppliers need to accelerate innovation, drive efficiencies and move to the factory of the future to allow for greater agility on production rates.

day, supplier-created parts and content represents 50%-60% of the value of an aerospace system. Relentless price pressures are compelling aircraft manufacturers and suppliers to reinvent the way they work with the supply chain. The new model requires a closer partnership to improve visibility, on-time delivery and first-time quality. The “ Program Excellence ” industry solution experience enables companies to optimize their product strategy and reach a high level of efficiency in program execution. Companies can implement their digital transformation around governance, configuration, collaboration and analytics. The “ Engineered to Fly” industry solution experience helps suppliers win more business and more efficiently deliver on time, on budget, on target. Best in class engineering, simulation and project tools delivered on a single platform can improve productivity up to 40% while reducing total cost of ownership by at least 15%.

Aerospace companies must integrate new technologies into ever-increasing complex aircraft that can meet passenger demands as well as operator cost and uptime targets. To drive down costs, companies must find efficiencies in how they conceptualize, design, manufacture, test, certify and support new aircraft. It requires a model-based and data-driven approach to drive significant process improvements to transform their ability to deliver on schedule, on cost, and on specification. Dassault Systèmes supports them in accelerating program maturity from concept to manufacturing while driving 40-60% of cost out. The “Winning Concept” industry solution experience increases success rates of new concepts and bid proposals by uniting the proposal authoring, concept alternatives definition and analysis trade process on a single business platform. The “Cleared To Operate” industry solution experience helps Aerospace & Defense programs test and certify on time and improve confidence between aviation authorities and their suppliers.

As airlines make decisions on retiring models and reassess their fleet needs, aircraft production and aftermarket services will need to be fundamentally reassessed to account for long-term demand shifts. The “Co-Design to Target” industry solution experience improves program execution to meet cost, schedule and performance targets, avoid potential contract penalties and reduces engineering complexity.  The “Ready for Rate” industry solution experience increases the efficiency of existing manufacturing operations, accelerates the ramp-up of new production lines, and enables future factory innovations.

It is critical for the aerospace industry’s resiliency and long term development to address costs. To deliver high performance operations at optimized costs requires manufacturing execution optimization on the shop floor as well as services optimization for MRO. With the virtual twin, Dassault Systèmes’ dedicated industry solution experiences make it possible to achieve excellence at reduced costs. The “Build To Operate” industry solution experience provides the Manufacturing Operations Management capabilities needed to implement lean practices to monitor, control and validate all aspects of manufacturing with digital precision on a global scale.

At the event, Dassault Systèmes showcased how the 3DEXPERIENCE platform helps in collaborative innovation by developing new ways of working across teams. The 3DEXPERIENCE platform accelerates program maturity with digital continuity across engineering, manufacturing and business functions, drives flexible production by combining virtual planning and real operations for continuous improvement, and creates new business opportunities with the full potential and controlled investment of cloud solutions.

TOLLAND, CT, USA, Feb 3, 2021 – If you are a currently maintained Mastercam customer, you can now participate in the Public Beta Program for Mastercam 2022. Manufacturers all over the world, from small job shops to Fortune 100 companies, get a chance to test-drive Mastercam 2022 before it is released and provide valuable feedback to help shape the final product. Participants in the Public Beta Program get an early look at dozens of powerful new tools for simple to complex jobs.

Many of the improvements in Mastercam 2022 are directly driven by Mastercam users and shops. Feedback from Public Beta releases, shop visits, customer surveys, and consultation with our expert industry partners create the practical, shop-driven focus that helps ensure Mastercam users’ success.

Faster, more flexible multiaxis programming. As more shops seek the benefits of a single setup, multiaxis cutting strategy, Mastercam 2022 adds new techniques and strategies such as the Unified Multiaxis toolpath which allows you to select multiple pieces of input geometry to generate the toolpath pattern. Using those geometry choices, the toolpath picks the best algorithm to calculate the path. Multi-pass on Deburr toolpaths supports flat chamfered and rounded edges which gives the user added flexibility, allowing the Deburr toolpath to create a quality surface finish on larger chamfered or radiused edges.

Modeling advances. Mastercam 2022 introduces powerful mesh creation and editing capabilities that deliver a new class of modeling tools, including the ability to reconstruct models from scanned data. Being able to directly edit wireframe geometry without interacting with the dialog box speeds up design and modification work. And the Overflow UV function allows you to replace multiple surfaces with inconsistent flows with a single surface for flowline toolpaths. You can also simplify surfaces for general modeling. Overflow UV generates a single unified surface with a desired UV flow on a connected set of surfaces.

Enhanced intelligence and automation. A suite of system-wide enhancements helps automate tasks and speed your workflow. New automatic region chaining uses a “smart” approach to auto-select logical chained areas. Holemaking from imported solids is faster as Mastercam will now automatically extract appropriate information and pre-populate your programming options. Even tool imports have been made more intelligent as Mastercam will infer more tool properties from an incoming tool CAD model.

These are only a few of the new features and enhancements coming to Mastercam 2022. For more information on Mastercam’s Public Beta Program, visit https://www.mastercam.com/support/customer-resources/.
