 | | | Essential tools |  With digital mock-up solutions, design engineers can construct virtual 3-D product prototypes and assemble multiple systems in a virtual environment. Utilize information from multiple formats and systems, while allowing suppliers to access the latest data regardless of the system from which it originated. |
| | | | Why digital mock-up solutions from IBM? | With digital mock-up solutions, you can employ next-generation CATIA and ENOVIA CAD/CAM/CAE software from Dassault Systèmes enabled by IBM software, middleware and hardware. Our digital mock-up solutions are designed for easy integration with disparate systems, and enlist powerful resources for your business processes. - CATIA provides a proven architecture that enables you to engineer 3-D digital product definition and simulation from simple piece-parts to entire aircraft or automobile designs.
- The scalable digital mock-up architecture supports layered offerings ranging from casual users on the shop floor or other downstream processes, to the expert users involved in advanced product synthesis or ergonomic studies.
- IBM can provide you with an end-to-end PLM solution.

| | | | End-to-end integration | To support their "Digital Engineering Strategy," truck designer and manufacturer Nissan Diesel Motor selected digital mock-up solutions from IBM for layout validation and packaging studies. They needed to: - View and analyze design data in a common environment.
- Share the same data between design, sales, production engineering and parts supply.
As a result of the implementation, Nissan Diesel Motors shortened their development cycle and reduced production errors.
Data handling capabilities: - 7,553 components per truck
- 2.5-3.0GB of model data
- 500MB of digital mock-up data
