INTRODUCTION

• An air craft is a machine that able to fly by gaining the support from air.

Hot air balloon Aeroplane


• Airbus group started in 1969.• Airbus is a world leading commercial aircraft manufacturer

headquartered in Toulouse, France. The organisation has more than 80,000 employees, working in 160 offices across 100 countries

• The design and industrialization of aircraft is a complex process.

Headquarters: 6/7%employeesAirbus France: 33 % employeesAirbus Germany: 37 % employeesAirbus UK: 18 %

employeesAirbus Spain: 5/6 % employees

50,000 people• Airbus design is started in by producing the drawing in the paper.

• The first air craft is the airbus A300• Then CAD Tolls, DMU are introduced

Automotive Electronics

TYPES OF ENGINEERING

• Based on the way of production procedure classified into 3 types they are.

o Traditional engineeringo Concurrent engineeringo Collaborative engineering

• Traditional method is a olden method• Now concurrent and collaborative engineering is used

TRADITIONAL ENGINEERING

CONCURRENT ENGINEERING

9Automotive Electronics

• It is a work methodology based on the parallelization of tasks which is sometimes called Simultaneous Engineering

• It is used in product development in which functions of design engineering, manufacturing engineering and other functions are integrated to reduce the elapsed time required to bring a new product to the market

• The main concepts supporting Concurrent Engineering are. Managing complexity, maximize the production by work parallel, Synchronization


• Concurrent engineering is brake down into five major phases:

• Feasibility (product idea, specification).• Concept (basic and product).

• Definition (instruction to produced).• Development (start and finish the model).

• Service.


COLLABORATIVE ENGINEERING

• It break the wall between functional design and industrial design.

• It is a new methodology that needs new procedures and new PLM tools are used.


DMU and IDMU

• DMUo ‘DMU as master’ is a standard

inside Airbuso DMU is a simulation based on

numerical and/or digital models that represents part of a product (airframe, systems, avionics, …).

o DMU, mainly to check functional design interferences(3D)

o The DMU is quite a complex engineering object, and requires proper management DMU integrators are used

• IDMUo ‘iDMU for all’ is a new concept. It is the main enabler of the

Collaborative Engineering.o provides a common virtual environment for all the aircraft

developmento Functional design and industrial design are part of a single

design processo IDMU collect the information related to functional design

plus all the information related to industrial designo The end of the design phase, they guarantee a correctness

solution

PILOT PROJECT

• It break the wall between functional design and industrial design.

• Calipsoneo was launched to support the development of pilot project.

• Calipsoneo involves Engineering Companies, IT companies, Vendors and Research Centres and Universities

• Calipsoneo makes use of the newest PLM tools. Also implements the new methods and process needed to support a new style of design

.


• The A320neo fan cowl pilot project and the Calipsoneo aims to demonstrate:

• Collaborative Engineering concepts applied to aircraft design and manufacture.

• Capability to generate an iDMU. 3D product, process and resources.

• Configuration based on individual iDMU per specimen.• Availability of PLM tools, develop, customization and

deployment of new capabilities.• Use of new PLM tools at design engineering level

continue


CONCLUSION

•Collaborative Engineering is a broader approach derived from the previous Concurrent Engineering experiences.

•The harmonization of functional design area and industrial design area having different departments and different heads

•The concept of a unique team doing all design functions has a large set of implications

•PLM experts were focused on PLM tools and create the new iDMU
