Wow: Daimler increases by Catia on NX

Wants to migrate to NX - Siemens PLM Software has just given out a press release that car manufacturer Daimler - previously fixed with Catia "married", that's a big step.

I was already here wants reported that Chrysler move to NX - Daimler is there still are a different caliber. Also because of the Chrysler deal was interpreted to mean that Fiat has forced upon his new daughter, the change of the CAD system.

Large projects: Chrysler to NX to rise

Fiat and Chrysler - Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne as saying, "a celestial marriage" (Who remembers Mr. Schrempp's "marriage made in heaven" at the beginning of the DaimlerChrysler adventure?). At least for Siemens PLM Software has a very positive impact of the Deal: Chrysler makes Catia / Enovia order to NX / Teamcenter.

The Chryler-key account of Dassault, Robert Brin check hoping still that coexist Cataia and NX, but Marchionne aims apparently a complete switch of the PLM environment to the development departments (Fiat has been working longer with NX) to dovetail more closely . And that I think is also the point of why the marriage Fiat-Chrysler could run better than marriage Daimler-Chrysler: Chrysler needs smaller, more energy efficient cars, Fiat desperately needs access to the U.S. market, because that brings the big numbers. Fiat USA, was disbanded in 1981, since then has made Fiat in the U.S. with little or no business. At present, the new Fiat 500 adapted to U.S. standards (and securely to NX with the experience of Chrysler's developers), and I think that the car is a great success "over there" is.

Automation makes doner

Things get updated very often: On the DÖGA - yes, this is the first "career fair kebab restaurant" in the heartland of Berlin kebab - was introduced to the Doner Robotu, the first doner cutting robot in the world. This fits into one of the subjects related to my "preoccupy" the moment: Where does meaningful automation? The kebab is Robotu - including an image recognition control of the cutting angle - a huge effort operated to achieve at the end of a negligible effect: the seller, who cut the kebab is now, still need more. Can - often observed - "pre-cutting" the kebab even when no customer is there. The doner Robotu in action can be seen in this video from Focus Online: More than meets automation Doner

Siemens PLM humorless?

Almost every CAD vendor is talking about the fantastic opportunities that offer social media. But social media is controlled just by definition, NOT subject through PR channels geschleus or any "corporate voice systems."

Social media must be able to endure, and Siemens's may not be obvious. A Siemens PLM employees who started with Blogger Deelip Menezes and others an April Fools joke to a Facebook game called CADville the joke and had to quickly cash in again.
Now that Ralph Grabowski and others reported,
the part is back online, because you realize that censorship still VIEEEL matters worse than a well-crafted April Fool's joke.

Cambashi sees CAD market before the rise

The British analysts Cambashi have issued a press release in which they see the further development of the market for engineering software positively. The increase was restrained, because many companies are overly cautious, but the rise was seen.

ebm-papst: without Pro / E training is nothing

Yesterday I was in Mulfingen at ebm-papst for a case study interview on behalf of Inneo . ebm-papst is a well known manufacturer of fans, in the IT sector, the Pope's fan is a term with which they formerly made computers silently.

Rarely have I seen such a well thought-papst and integrated mechatronic process chain, as in, even the 3D models of circuit boards and electronic components are produced entirely by detail and automatically. The entire process chain up to the manufacturing centers on the Pro / E data. Consequence: Every engineer trainee, every intern in the development becomes the first in Inneo a Pro / E Basic Training, so that he can ever be put to good use. And there is also nothing to make coffee and Copying: The interns get a real job and have to - put themselves - as far as possible. This also relieves the developer of "educational work". And the interns can really learn something.

Hamster for protons: the LHC is running again

One of the most incredible experiments in physics is again: The Large Hadron Collider, a particle accelerator with a 27km long run, since Sunday night, finally, after nine days of transit time in September 2008 for a year was out.

In the CAD CAM 9/10 2008 we reported on the LHC and in the issue 3/4 2009 on the CAD technology that is needed when constructing nearly 20 years at a plant. Also, my editorial in the 9/10 2008 dealt with the LHC and my admiration for the pioneering spirit of the researchers who are also prophecies of doom prophets half silk can not stop moving to the limits of our knowledge.
