Case study Hauhinco Maschinenfabrik:
Water hydraulics specialist implements seamless product development process down to machine level
Hauhinco chose NX from Siemens Digital Industries Software for its CAD/CAM system and Teamcenter as its central data backbone. No other manufacturer could offer the same continuity through to production.
The connection between production and the new PLM solution was taken over by Siemens Solutions partner A+B Solutions. The additional software Shop Floor Connect (SFC) is used for direct access to production-relevant data from Teamcenter, such as NC programs, tool lists, production documentation and 3D models. NC codes from the Teamcenter database can in turn be transferred directly to the machine.
"You will rarely encounter a process chain that is this continuously integrated, even at medium-sized businesses in Germany where companies attach great importance to continuous processes. The fact that it took us less than a year to implement it is mostly due to the dedicated cooperation of the partners involved," says Dr Jens Standke, who managed the project for Siemens Digital Industries Software.
