Aras PLM
Aras Innovator® is an open source, subscription based enterprise PLM* platform. You can download it from the Aras website and start using it immediately.
Aras Innovator allows you to build a "digital thread" that connects data of all product life cycles from product planning and design to manufacturing and after-delivery service without replacing customer's existing systems. This will enable past design data and post-delivery customer feedback to be used for new product development, and service departments to use design and manufacturing information properly to perform preventative maintenance. Various product data in the manufacturing industry is an important corporate asset. Build digital threads with Aras to get the most out of that data and innovate your products and businesses in an era of radical manufacturing change.

Responding to Engineering Issues
Do you have any of the following issues?
-
We want to develop a product that meets the requirements according to the V model, but tracking the progress from requirements to design and testing is difficult.
-
Each department uses multiple CAD systems and are not integrated, making it difficult to organize during product development.
-
The engineering BOM and the manufacturing BOM are not linked and therefore any engineering change cannot be synchronized between R&D and factory production.
-
When a defect occurs in a finished product, it is difficult to grasp the extent of the defect's influence and therefore it takes time to change the design.
-
The simulation data is used only by the engineering department, and therefore cannot be effectively used for cooperative collaboration with other departments.
-
A wide range of different IT systems are being used in design, manufacturing, and service departments, and it takes time to share product data.
-
We want to correctly apply firmware and software updates to the target product ... etc.
These issues arise because the systems that manage each business process and data related to products are fragmented. Connecting data and building a "digital thread" is a big first step toward a solution.
