The Tecnomatix suite, together with the new capabilities in today.s release,
enables collaborative engineering and improves the productivity of
manufacturing planners, supporting companies in their effort to bring products
to market faster.

Tecnomatix also leverages Teamcenter. software, Siemens PLM Software.s digital
lifecycle management portfolio, as an integrated platform for manufacturing
planning, from process authoring through simulation to documentation.
Enhancements in Tecnomatix 9 support concepts such as re-use of best practices
and standardization, as well as tools helping to manage complexity, such as
change management. These tools help increase planning productivity and enable
planners to do more with less.

One of the principal ways Tecnomatix 9 helps companies drive productivity is
through several new features aimed at automating various planning tasks. For
example, one new function allows for the rapid creation and exploration of
alternate product assembly/disassembly sequencing in order to optimize this
planning task and save time in creating assembly documentation. Another
automated planning task enhancement uses a higher level task description to
manipulate the Jack. human model component of Tecnomatix in 3D virtual
environments. This capability can significantly reduce the time required for
a simulation study, allowing for the evaluation of various what-if scenarios
involving the simulation of humans in a manufacturing or maintenance environment.

Tecnomatix 9 includes several additional enhancements targeted at increasing
planning productivity, usability improvements and a new manufacturing tooling
library. In addition, Tecnomatix offers tighter integration to Teamcenter,
enabling seamless manufacturing data collaboration between Tecnomatix
applications and the Teamcenter PLM backbone.

Tecnomatix 9 brings planning and production more closely together, and helps
bridge the gap between virtual and real. With Tecnomatix 9, a new solution for
Dimensional Planning & Validation (DPV) is being introduced. DPV enables
capturing large amounts of as-built data from measurement devices on the
shop-floor and managing them in Teamcenter. Product designers as well as
manufacturing engineers can leverage powerful search and analysis functions
to analyze and compare quality data from various plants and thus optimize
product and process.

.With the Tecnomatix solution, we have succeeded in introducing a fully
integrated planning system into our company,. said Roland Weisser, plant
manager, ebm-papst St. Georgen GmbH & Co. KG. .From design and planning to
the after-sales stage, we are able to map the entire production lifecycle.
The planning data can be re-used at any time and the production planners
can access existing documentation for the same process and the same machine
or system..
