AIRBUS SUPPLY CHAIN

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 rate. This requires a new way to conceptualize, design, manufacture, test, certify and sustain new air and space vehicles. In this context, the largest OEMs are choosing Dassault Systèmes and the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to digitalize their business. It is happening for civil, business and Defense aviation.

3DEXPERIENCE will help AIRBUS to make DDMS (Digital Design Manufacturing and Services) a companywide reality for all AIRBUS divisions and product lines. This will lay the foundation for a new European Industrial Ecosystem.

As a Platinum Dassault Systèmes Partner, we have extensive experience in deploying 3DEXPERIENCE and can, therefore, ensure an exceptional customer experience when supporting the Airbus supplier base with 3DEXPERIENCE activities. We are positioned to provide packaged deployment and training solutions for 3DEXPERIENCE support and risk management throughout the Airbus supply chain providing reassurance to Airbus their suppliers.

As Airbus suppliers, you will need to be trained in the AIRBUS methods and workflow process based in 3DEXPERIENCE e.g. CATIA (multiple engineering disciplines\roles) and the data release process. We can also assist you to install and administer a specific AIRBUS 3DEXPERIENCE build and how to connect this environment to the AIRBUS server.

The 3DXPERIENCE’S Single source of truth philosophy gives suppliers and the OEM confidence that everybody is working on correct data and therefore reducing costly mistakes. There will be a time of adoption, but the efficiency gains reaped in the long-term justify the time and financial investments. We can support you as a supplier by evaluating your current capability against 3DEXPERIENCE requirements, adopting this collaborative way of working can transform other processes and partnerships that you have within your organisation and we will help you make the most of your investment.

Manage global manufacturing requirements consistent with validated processes and formalize planning know-how for easy reuse, continuous optimization and reduction of lead time.

• Digital continuity from engineering to NC code
• Offline programming reducing production stops
• 3DEXPERIENCE twin of the machine to simulate and optimise the best machining strategies and optimise cycle times
• Increase rates optimising manufacturing processes by digital continuity
