Digital Manufacturing Consultancy Services

Often before investing in an integral scheduling system, it is prudent to have a pilot project to evaluate the effectiveness of the scheduling system.    

TriMech Enterprise can help define, set up, and execute the pilot along with personnel from your facility. While defined by a scope of work, the pilots typically last about 6 calendar weeks. 

Once a successful pilot has been conducted, the remainder of the process will need to be modeled along with the automation of the input data, and any custom output. This will be defined by a scope of work and will vary based on the size/complexity of the process. 

At TriMech Enterprise, we offer bespoke digital manufacturing planning and scheduling services using DELMIA Ortems, allowing manufacturers to create valid, optimal schedules for their complex manufacturing operations.  

Deploying DELMIA Ortems will ensure the availability of purchased items, labour, tooling, and all prerequisites required to execute on an optimal production schedule generated by its proprietary optimisation engine. It can also perform infinite capacity scheduling and load balancing calculations to determine resources required over a longer period. 

Ortems solves these problems using an interface tied to your MRP and factory control systems. It uses this input data to generate shop floor-ready schedules in a format and on a cadence defined by the facility.

Our team is here to work with you from the very beginning of your journey with a range of digital manufacturing consultancy services to help you hit the ground running. We can help you to define, validate, and implement process planning and scheduling that correlates directly to your shop floor, helping you to minimise delays, reduce inefficiencies and drive innovation.

At TriMech Enterprise, our team of experts have created a series of 'out of the box' workshops that can be tailored to your needs to support you with getting the most from your software investment.

Work Instructions Workshop

With the Work Instructions workshop, you will be able to dynamically create instructions for Process Plans, Communicate Downstream Effectively, Easily distribute information, utilise and successfully work with HTML, Web, 3D, 2D and direct integration with Apriso Suite. 

Ergonomics Static Models Workshop

With the Ergonomics Static Models workshop, you will be able to Insert 3D virtual manikins for posture analysis, analyse station ergonomics for showing the 50th-percentile male to the 5th-percentile female and gain access to standard ergonomic analysis tools such as Vision, Reach, etc.  

Ergonomics at Work Workshop

The Ergonomics at Work workshop will enable you to use Simulation to sequence humans interacting with station activities and allow you to benefit from the workspace to validate the product or workstation design. 

Process Planning Workshop

Our process planning workshop will give you the tools to implement:

Initial Set Up:

• Work Instructions
• Equipment/Tooling Required
• Data Collection, Testing, and Quality

Operational Details:

• Where should the assembly be processed?
• Duration and/or Cyclical Breakdown

Executable Processes:

• Identify what needs to be done
• Create and group a collection of processes
• Provide operators with the information that they need to complete their tasks properly

Assembly Evaluation Workshop

Our Assembly Evaluation workshop will enable you to: 

• Design for Manufacturing
• Evaluate assembly at any point in the process plan
• Check Product interferences for form fit or function
• Check tooling access
• Virtually see assembly sequence
• Determine your ‘what if’ scenarios
• Leveraging/Validating MBOM and Process plan 

During the pilot and implementation, we will train your personnel on the creation, use, and maintenance of Ortems. These are generally four-day courses taught to groups of up to 10 people.
