DELMIA Version 6 Release 2012x

DELMIA Robotics Virtual Commissioning (RVC) - The new DELMIA Robotics Virtual Commissioning (RVC) extends DELMIA Robot Task Definition’s ability to simulate and validate a robot program virtually in 3D.  It delivers extremely accurate 3D simulations of the robot motion path and cycle time using the robot manufacturer’s own virtual robot controller (VRC) software.  Additionally, DELMIA RVC employs the Realistic Robot Simulation II (RRS-II) standard allowing the robot programmer to use the native robot language and a virtual robot teach pendant that works the same way as the physical teach pendant on the shop floor.

DELMIA Process Review (CPV) allows secure access to V6 data via a standard web browser.  Once logged into the secure server, the user is able to search, view properties, and attach or retrieve relevant documents, according to people and organization privileges.  Deployment of CPV is both simple and cost effective because there is no client to install for the user.

DELMIA Production System Simulation (PSS) extends V6 3D based simulation and analysis of manufacturing systems to include pull-manufacturing models.  With this enhancement, just-in-time manufacturers can now benefit from the capability of PSS to identify bottlenecks, analyze resource utilization, and test what-if scenarios for their manufacturing systems.

The DS V6 PLM Express On Premise offering has been expanded to include body-in-white solutions for the small and medium size automotive suppliers.  Specifically, the DELMIA Robotics Spot Welding (RSW) product has been added to the Robot Programmer role.  Additionally, DELMIA Fastener Planner (BPP), DELMIA Process & Resource Editor (PRE), and DELMIA Device Task Definition (DTD) are available as optional products.

In June 2011, DS announced its new online V6 platform; a comprehensive suite of solutions to deploy 3D, PLM solutions with greater flexibility and efficiency.  In this release, the DS V6 PLM Express Online offering has been expanded to include body-in-white solutions for the small and medium size automotive suppliers.  Specifically, the DELMIA Robotics Spot Welding (RSW-O) product has been added to the Robot Programmer role.  Additionally, DELMIA Fastener Planner (BPP-O), DELMIA Process & Resource Editor (PRE-O), and DELMIA Device Task Definition (DTD-O) are available as optional products.

New concentric and spiral morphing strategies have been introduced for hard material milling machining. These new operations ensure a constant volume of material removal as well as smooth and continuous cutting motion saving time and minimizing cutting tool wear.

Linking standardized work instructions from a catalog complements the existing Catalog Browser ‘Insert as a Copy’ functionality of DELMIA Work Instruction Planning (WKI), providing maximum flexibility for the planner. The user can chose this new capability to benefit from automatic updates from the standardized work instructions authored by the work instruction administrator. In addition to saving time and effort, this new capability reduces the database size by avoiding repeated storage of work instructions that share fixed attribute values.
