Industry Solutions
Introduction
External forces like legislation and product-specific requirements within different industries have an impact on the design process. Find out more about Zuken’s solutions by industry sector.
Intense and complicated approvals processes and 100% reliability have a dramatic impact on product development within the aerospace industry. Design environments need to guarantee accuracy and traceability while enabling the adoption of the latest technology for in-flight comfort and safety.
Complying with the latest safety and environmental legislation, while integrating the newest advanced onboard technology creates specific issues for electronic and electrical product development.
Delivering smaller, faster products with more functionality is a design challenge that demands a total optimized process that can integrate the latest technology.
Coordination of the R&D effort is the key to harnessing the innovations of individual contributors, and to rapidly delivering launch-ready products. By focusing on the development process and making it more visible and transparent, individuals and teams can view the activity on their project and be notified when their input is required.
Zuken delivers ‘best in class’ information exchange via its Cable, Cabling & Fluidic Product Development environment approach - safeguarding data security while allowing authorized users easy access to relevant design data and information.
Riding out the peaks and troughs of the machinery market, involves having a product that performs and delivers quality, which can be maintained for dozen of years until it is decommissioned. Having a lifecycle approach can be what separates the leaders from the followers.
The growth of electronics and supporting electrical systems onboard demand a more sophisticated product development approach.
There is no compromise in the medical industry, products have to deliver 100% reliability and continually push the boundaries of technology.
Access control, 100% reliability, and security issues associated with international export legislation make the requirements of the military/defense sector unique.
Industries that rely on electronic and electrical components, face a fundamental product management challenge. Regardless of whether the product is in active production or service and warranty repair mode, overall product lifecycles far exceed the average lives of individual components.
The international rail industry is both highly competitive and safety driven. Global market development has presented the manufacturers of rail rolling stock with a host of new challenges. Apart from the usual requirements of speed to market, increased value and higher quality there are also more and more specific customer requirements and local market demands.
Achieving quality and keeping down costs in an industry dominated by customization can make it a challenge to deliver a vehicle at a price that the end user is willing to except. Maintaining the life long ability to keep the product on the road for many years to come can come at a cost.
