PowerPoint-PräsentationiMAN and DesignSpace –
CADFEM Usermeeting 2002
- Requirements for the Integration
- Variants for DesignSpace iMAN Data model
- How to Implement
Focus on Unigraphics, iMAN
PDM is established for CAD Applications
iMAN/Unigraphics products and DesignSpace are from different companies, ...
Questions:
- Integration?
Will it be supported?
Demonstrates processes for CAD/FEM integrated in PDM
Dipl.-Ing. Peter Binde
Improve Communication and Data-Retrieval:
- Better security of data
- Restrictions possible
Improve Documentation:
- Documentation for quality-insurance needs
- Prove, release, change processes
Reusage of FE Data:
- Digital-Mock-Up using FE-data: Reusing meshes
or the stiffness of piece parts
in FEA or MKS for assemblies.
Dipl.-Ing. Peter Binde
- Transfer of attributes from CAD to FEM (Ex. Shell thickness)
- Transfer of weld point-info from CAD to FEM
- Keep normal usage (starting DesignSpace from UG)
Integrate Geometry Preparation:
- Do not change the original part
Dipl.-Ing. Peter Binde
- Organize the DesignSpace report
- Provide export and import of all related data from the
database

How to Implement
1. Create a new dataset type or modify one of the existing
- Insert as reference: UG (*.prt)
- Insert as reference: DesignSpace (*.dsdb)
2. Create a new tool
- Let the new tool start DesignSpace
- Let the tool work on the new dataset type
That‘s it!
