DELMIA Process Planning (PRP) delivers essential process planning capabilities within the Version 6 virtual 3D environment for all manufacturing industries.Using PRP, process planners can efficiently create and validate the initial process plan using the product structure from product engineering, modify the plan to specific requirements, and link product and resources to the steps of the plan. Planners can also perform standard time studies and balance the workload between resources. These plans can then be leveraged by downstream stakeholders, minimizing rework as they enrich the plan from concept to execution.
