Upgrade takes product lifecycle management further
Dassault Systemes and IBM are releasing Version 5 Release 13 (V5R13) of their product lifecycle management (PLM) portfolio, comprising Catia, Enovia and Smarteam.
Within the scope of this collaborative effort, the two partners have pooled their knowhow and resources to allow engineering companies to enhance compatibility between the design stage and the manufacturing process.
"Intensive use of Dassault Systemes applications equips our students with the skills to contribute immediately and actively to industrial projects, drawing on the knowledge acquired during the course and applying it in hands-on situations", explained Jean-Daniel Luthi, Head of the Industrial Microtechnology Department at Haute Ecole Arc Ingenierie.
"We achieve this by regularly involving students in assignments conducted in our laboratories under the guidance of our teaching staff".

ArvinMeritor has selected Delmia Quest and Delmia Process Engineer (DPE) to evaluate its current assembly processes.
At the end of June 2005, Haute Ecole Arc Ingenierie decided to select a broad range of industry-specific applications in the areas of design, production simulation and technical data management.
Following an in-depth analysis, the school chose Dassault Systemes' Catia V5, Enovia Smarteam and Delmia software solutions.
More than 130 workstations have since been installed at the school's Locle and Saint Imier sites.
Their intrinsic high quality means that the school can deploy these resources transversally for both educational requirements and applied research activities.
"This partnership with Haute Ecole Arc Ingenierie is critical to supporting our investments in Switzerland, since the school is located at the heart of a region steeped in industrial knowhow, combining the key strengths of tradition and innovation in several target areas, such as watchmaking and mechanical engineering", commented Denis Senpere, General Manager PLM Northern Europe, Dassault Systemes.
To promote this initiative and demonstrate the benefits of the research conducted at the engineering school for the region's industrial players, the two partners organised the first in a series of information workshops last week, featuring in situ presentations.
Students enrolled on design and analysis engineering courses can now do the majority of their learning using the different modules integrated into the Dassault Systemes tools.
