Brief Description of the Lab
“Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) is the process of managing the entire lifecycle of a product from its conception, through design and manufacture, to service and disposal/retirement. All companies need to manage communications and information with their customers and their suppliers and the resources within the enterprise. In addition, manufacturing engineering companies must also develop, describe, manage and communicate information about their products (PLM). A PLM Competency Building Centre has been established partnering with Dassault Systemes, Siemens Industry Software India Private Ltd and ITC Infotech Banglore (WindChill PTC)
The Center for Building Competence in Product Lifecycle Management was established @KIIT in partnership with Dassault Systemes on 21 October 2009, to start short term certification programs and a long term programme in Technology Management with the vision to help students in the school of Mechanical/Management to develop hands-on skills with modernized courseware before they start a career. The courseware includes necessary skills in manufacturing processes and methods that are prevalent in the industries across the world.
State-of-the-art centre to facilitate PLM education and research powered by Dassault Systemes, the ‘Centre for Building Competence in Product Lifecycle Management (PLM)’ was equipped with the latest computing facilities and PLM technologies. This centre can train up to 30 students equipping them with the knowledge of Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solutions at a time on the tools like CATIA, DELMIA, ENOVIA Matrix one and 3DVIA etc
Under the Center for Building Competence in Product Lifecycle Management: Memorandum of Understanding been signed with Siemens Industry Software India Private Limited Global leader in PLM and with ITC Infotech, Bangalore to educate students on Siemens applications and PLM tools used widely in the industry, further upgrading it to Centre of Excellence with research projects undertaken by the faculty and students. The collaboration span into multitude of programs including Campus Connect, Internship, Industry-Academia student-employee exchange, Joint Academic/Industry/Research projects, Campus hiring etc.
State-of-the-art centre to facilitate PLM education and research powered by PTC and Siemens is equipped with software tools (100+50 User Licenses) like Windchill (PDM, MPP and Work Plan, BOM, Change and configuration management, Creo, Thingworx, IIoT etc. Siemens Tools Like NX for Digital Product Development,Tecnomatix for Digital Manufacturing, Teamcenter for Digital Lifecycle Management , Velocity Series which provides PLM for small and mid-sized businesses.”
