The Product Evaluation module enables the user to filter specific product configurations and evaluate the cost of the proposed production plan versus the cost targets. With the Layout Planning module the engineer can efficiently design and optimize manual and automated work cells and lines. This allows the users to share the same data among the different locations, departments and disciplines throughout the enterprise and across the supply chain. Assembly sequences are created and edited using Gantt-style charts. Part trajectories and corresponding swept volumes show clearances and fits.
Assembly processes can include humans, robots and other mechanical methods.
