ING Renault F1 spreads use of engineering design 19/04/2007
 
integration, design ING Renault F1 says that using Seemage CAD visualisation and integration software as part of its larger product lifecycle management has helped it to realise its most competitive designs more quickly and accurately.

It is using the software to deliver 3D information to its engine developers – working on sophisticated V8 and V10 engines working in Catia V4 and V5 3D CAD – and the rest of the team who need access for design reviews and service procedures.

The company says it recognises that the 3D CAD model is the ideal source information, but points out that it must be available in formats and applications that non-designers can use.

“We selected Seemage because of its excellent end-user productivity, its graphic and 3D animation performance and its highly accurate results even when using large assemblies or large sets of equipment,” said Jean-François Plusquellec, IS/IT team project manager at ING Renault F1.

ING Renault F1 is implementing Seemage in phases with the help of UK reseller Xype. The first consists of combining validated 3D designs online with 2D plans and supplier documents. In this phase Seemage’s visualisation is being applied to associatively link all the information so that users always have the most accurate and up-to-date view of the project.
