Bridge the Gap from Design to Production with Manufacturing Engineering
Optimize machining, process engineering, robotics and virtual factory simulation to drive precision and innovation.
Stop Solving Production Problems on the Shop Floor
Every gap between design intent and manufacturing execution erodes profits, slows time-to-market and adds costly risk. Physical trials, manual robot reprogramming and unvalidated toolpaths expose you to errors competitors can’t afford.
Manufacturing Engineering eliminates this risk by providing four bundles for machining, process engineering, robotics and virtual factory—within a connected, data-driven environment. Move validation upstream with virtual technology before equipment ever hits the floor.
- Machining delivers reliable NC code and virtual simulation to protect valuable parts and equipment.
- Process Engineering lets you define and test manufacturing plans early, ensuring the shop floor executes right the first time.
- Robotics enables offline programming and validation of robotic operations, reducing downtime and ensuring collision-free cycles.
- Virtual Factory provides a comprehensive digital replica of your entire manufacturing operation. You can simulate processes, resource usage and production flow to optimize layouts, reduce costs and increase scalability—all before making any changes on the shop floor.
Powered by the 3DEXPERIENCE platform and AI, these bundles provide scientifically accurate models of your operations. AI automates toolpath and robotic optimizations and the 3DEXPERIENCE platform and 3DUNIV+RSES connect your value network, keeping data aligned in real time.
Validate virtually, execute confidently and drive value from engineering through production.

How Companies Use the Manufacturing Engineering Bundle
Precision Machining & Robotics Innovation
Lucid
The 3DEXPERIENCE platform acts as a single source of truth for the tens of thousands of data points that make up Lucid’s vehicles. By connecting design, engineering and manufacturing with a single digital thread, the same real-time information is accessible by everyone at Lucid.
Dassault Systèmes tools have been instrumental in bringing our cars to production. DELMIA helps us to see what the car is supposed to look like and how we are supposed to assemble it. The platform reduces time, effort and opportunities for error.
