Utveckling av verktyg i NX/Teamcenter : Implementering av effektiviserade och automatiserade arbetssätt för hantering av formytor och spegling av presshärdningsverktygHellström, Jonas January 2017 (has links)
Detta examensarbete har genomförts hos Gestamp Hardtech i Luleå på Tooling Design-avdelningen. Idag arbetar företaget med både I-DEAS och NX för att konstruera presshärdningsverktyg som används för att tillverka säkerhetsdetaljer för bilar. Under examensarbetet har jag studerat den metodik som används av konstruktörerna när de arbetar i NX och utför trimning av formdelar och spegling av presshärdningsverktyg. Idag sker det här arbetet manuellt vilket leder till många steg som måste utföras av konstruktörerna för varje trimning eller spegling. Det leder till att arbetet blir både tidskrävande och att risken för fel ökar eftersom det inte finns något enkelt sätt för konstruktörerna att kontrollera att trimning har skett med rätt formyta eller att alla namn på de speglade delarna stämmer. Arbetet resulterade i två program som konstruktörerna kan använda i NX för att underlätta deras arbete. Båda programmen är begränsade så att all inmatning av data sker i första dialog rutan som kommer upp då programmet startas. Genom att indata samlas in under ett steg minskas risken för fel och gör arbetsprocessen lättare för konstruktörerna. Utvecklingen av båda programmen har genomförts med hjälp av Visual Studio från Microsofts som är deras eget IDE, Integrated Development Environment. Enligt de standarder som Hardtech lagt fram så skall Visual basic användas som programmeringsspråk. För att de färdiga programmen ska kunna kommunicera med NX har jag använt mig av NX API till båda lösningarna. För att kontrollera resultaten i projektet och kontrollera så att programmen har fått rätt funktioner har konstruktörerna fått prova på att använda båda programmen i verkliga projekt och kommit med feedback. / This master thesis has been conducted at Gestamp Hardtech in Luleå at their Tooling department. Today the designers uses 3D CAD such as I-DEAS and NX to develop and build press-hardening tools that are used in the manufacturing of safety details for the automotive industry. This thesis discuss the methods that are used today by the designers to shape the forming dies and the mirroring of a presshardeningtool and how this work can be improved. Today, both the shaping of the forming dies and the mirroring of a presshardningtool are done manually. This work is done in many steps by the designers and the designers can easily make errors especially since there is no easy way for the designers to check if the forming dies have the correct geometry. The manual process is therefore very error prone and improvements are very much needed. As part of this work, two programs have been developed for NX for the designers to use in order to reduce the risk for errors during the process of shaping the forming dies and mirroring the presshardningen tool. A lot of focus has been spent on making the programs as easy to use as possible e.g. collecting all input data at the start of the program and designed the product as close as possible to a One Button Interface. Both of the programs have been developed with Microsofts own IDE, Visual Studio, and the code is structured according to the guidelines that was given by Hardtech. The programing language used for both programs are VB.NET. To make sure that the communication between NX and the program NX own API is used. The validation process for both solutions have been in the form of interviews and discussions with the tool designers. Through the entire project, the tool designers have tested and validated the programs in both test environments and real projects.

Teamcenter Simulation Process ManagementRunge, Torsten, Narendra, Kondragunda 18 July 2018 (has links)
Manage your simulation processes, data, tools and workflows The pressure to shorten time-to-market while improving product performance and quality is driving the increased use of simulation throughout the product lifecycle. However, without some form of simulation data management, simulation itself can become a process bottleneck. The Teamcenter simulation process management solution has been specifically designed to help you get control of your simulation data and processes in the context of an overall product lifecycle management (PLM) system. With Teamcenter, you can avoid common problems such as analyses being performed on obsolete data, poor visibility to simulation results, and results arriving too late to influence design direction. You can efficiently manage and share complex product simulations so they are available to all product decision-makers across your business.

Pattern Based System Engineering (PBSE)- Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) Integration and ValidationGupta, Rajat 17 November 2017 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / Mass customization, small lot sizes, reduced cost, high variability of product types
and changing product portfolio are characteristics of modern manufacturing systems
during life cycle. A direct consequence of these characteristics is a more complex system and supply chain. Product lifecycle management (PLM) and model based system
engineering (MBSE) are tools which have been proposed and implemented to address
different aspects of this complexity and resulting challenges. Our previous work has
successfully implemented a MBSE model into a PLM platform. More specifically,
Pattern based system engineering (S* pattern) models of systems are integrated with
TEAMCENTER to link and interface system level with component level, and streamline the lifecycle across disciplines. The benefit of the implementation is two folded.
On one side it helps system engineers using system engineering models enable a shift
from learning how to model to implementing the model, which leads to more effective
systems definition, design, integration and testing. On the other side the PLM platform provides a reliable database to store legacy data for future use also track changes
during the entire process, including one of the most important tools that a systems
engineer needs which is an automatic report generation tool. In the current work, we
have configured a PLM platform (TEAMCENTER) to support automatic generation
of reports and requirements tables using a generic Oil Filter system lifecycle. There
are three tables that have been configured for automatic generation which are Feature definitions table, Detail Requirements table and Stakeholder Feature Attributes
table. These tables where specifically chosen as they describe all the requirements of the system and cover all physical behaviours the oil filter system shall exhibit during its physical interactions with external systems. The requirement tables represent
core content for a typical systems engineering report. With the help of the automatic
report generation tool, it is possible to prepare the entire report within one single
system, the PLM system, to ensure a single reliable data source for an organization.
Automatic generation of these contents can save the systems engineers time, avoid
duplicated work and human errors in report preparation, train future generation of
workforce in the lifecycle all the while encouraging standardized documents in an
organization.

A plm implementation for aerospace systems engineering-conceptual rotorcraft designHart, Peter Bartholomew 08 April 2009 (has links)
The thesis will discuss the Systems Engineering phase of an original Conceptual Design Engineering Methodology for Aerospace Engineering-Vehicle Synthesis. This iterative phase is shown to benefit from digitization of Integrated Product&Process Design (IPPD) activities, through the application of Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) technologies. Requirements analysis through the use of Quality Function Deployment (QFD) and 7 MaP tools is explored as an illustration. A "Requirements Data Manager" (RDM) is used to show the ability to reduce the time and cost to design for both new and legacy/derivative designs. Here the COTS tool Teamcenter Systems Engineering (TCSE) is used as the RDM. The utility of the new methodology is explored through consideration of a legacy RFP based vehicle design proposal and associated aerospace engineering. The 2001 American Helicopter Society (AHS) 18th Student Design Competition RFP is considered as a starting point for the Systems Engineering phase. A Conceptual Design Engineering activity was conducted in 2000/2001 by Graduate students (including the author) in Rotorcraft Engineering at the Daniel Guggenheim School of Aerospace Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta GA. This resulted in the "Kingfisher" vehicle design, an advanced search and rescue rotorcraft capable of performing the "Perfect Storm" mission, from the movie of the same name. The associated requirements, architectures, and work breakdown structure data sets for the Kingfisher are used to relate the capabilities of the proposed Integrated Digital Environment (IDE). The IDE is discussed as a repository for legacy knowledge capture, management, and design template creation. A primary thesis theme is to promote the automation of the up-front conceptual definition of complex systems, specifically aerospace vehicles, while anticipating downstream preliminary and full spectrum lifecycle design activities. The thesis forms a basis for additional discussions of PLM tool integration across the engineering, manufacturing, MRO and EOL lifecycle phases to support business management processes.
