Digital Product Development

Think connected, act synchronously, develop digitally

Efficient product development through to virtual commissioning? This requires top engineering in the product development process. CIDEON provides solutions, software and services for digital product development. The aim is to create and use a digital twin of your plant, machine or complete production line. Find out about specific challenges and our answers to them.

Challenges

Increased Production Complexity

Use digitalization to meet the continuously growing complexity in product development. By (digitally) showing modification potentials at an early stage for troubleshooting purposes you can, for example, optimize digital prototypes prior to production.

 

Shorter Innovation Cycles

Use digitalization to increase efficiency along the entire value chain. Benefit from significantly shorter innovation cycles and associated cost savings, especially by digitalizing product development.

 

Interdisciplinary Design Approaches

Link design approaches at an early stage, such as digital product development with mechatronic design processes, and integrate all necessary work steps into an interdisciplinary product development process: complete, digital model setups, computations and simulations, visualization and the final virtual commissioning. 

Increasing Data Management

Quick, secure and efficient management of process and product development data. Powerful product data management (PDM) systems open up completely new options for efficient data management. Where production approvals previously involved stamping drawings, modern PDM systems mean having digital processes along the entire product life cycle.

Solutions

Autodesk CAD solutions are professional planning and design tools to achieve impressive design and manufacturing outcomes, whether as specific stand-alone software solutions or product development and factory planning tools combined in a single collection.

Autodesk CAD solutions

Autodesk CAD Lösungen sind professionelle Planungs- und Konstruktionswerkzeuge für ein überzeugendes Konstruktions- und Fertigungsergebnis – sowohl als spezifische Einzel-Software-Lösungen als auch in einer Collection vereinte Produktentwicklungs- und Fabrikplanungs-Tools.

Consulting and implementation

CIDEON Consulting and Implementation stands for end-to-end implementation of new solutions while ensuring short project times and adhering to budgets. You benefit from solutions and products from a single source and professional service.

 

CAD methodology and guidelines

CIDEON supports you in standardizing working methods, i.e., we work together to analyze and implement customized guidelines for your CAD system. Our common goal is to enable you to create design processes that are effective, robust and transparent.

Trainings

Successful digital product development is not just about new solutions and new software. Integrating your employees is just as relevant. This is achieved via our training courses, either online or in one of our training centers throughout Germany. 

CIDEON Conify

Your software solution for a consistent configuration process

 

CIDEON Conify connects data consistently from the sales as well as the engineering phase to automatically provide PDM-compliant CAD data of the configured product. This creates the basis for the subsequent  engineering-to-order and generation of ERP-specific parts lists, work schedules and production processes according to customer requirements, enabling the creation of individual products quickly and according to specifications.

Benefit from, among other things: 

  • Automation of daily tasks in the processing of configurable products
  • Consistent data quality
  • Ensuring uniform standards for all process participants

 

Conify is the ideal combination of CONnection and CONfiguration!
