Sigmetrix To Be Silver Sponsors at GPDIS 2023 in Phoenix, AZ
Attendees will be able to explore how Sigmetrix can help them maximize the return on their MBD/MBE investment along with delivering more innovative products through Mechanical Variation Management.
MCKINNEY, Texas – September 13, 2023 —Sigmetrix, global experts in Mechanical Variation Management announced that they will attending the Global Product Data Interoperability Summit being held on September 18-21 at the Hilton Phoenix Resort at the Peak in Booth S302.
GPDIS is a communication hub for industry principles to foster knowledge and through the exchange of ideas, solutions, and methods. In turn, there will be a strong emphasis on learning, connecting, and engaging with each other. GPDIS brings together the resources from original equipment manufacturer (OEMs), suppliers, solutions, services, and standards to accelerate the development and adoption of a model-based ecosystem and leverage the value of all digital assets through the product lifecycle. This year’s theme focuses on, “the model-based supply chain: what is reality?”
There is a lot of discussion in industry about Model-Based Definition, Industry 4.0, and Digital Thread. Many companies are starting down the path toward a Model-Based Enterprise, but that path can be challenging. There are many facets to becoming truly Model-Based, but as the name implies, the key is the models themselves and their connections to various parameters. Much of the work done with these models is done in the design’s perfect form, but each part of the design varies from the perfect form to some degree. It is therefore important to understand this mechanical variation in the models. Sigmetrix, with its knowledge of managing mechanical variation, can help maximize the return on your MBD / MBE investment in the following ways:
- Ensure the integrity of your MBD to maximize usability.
- Guide the creation of optimal dimensioning schemes, including GD&T.
- Promote consistent knowledge between contributors and consumers.
- Assess and improve the maturity of your organization’s Mechanical Variation Management.
Traditional views on the management and understanding of mechanical variation have stifled innovation in some companies and limited them to only developing derivative products. The impact of more significant change on quality is unknown. The best-performing companies see how a consistent understanding of mechanical variation throughout an organization and the ability to quickly simulate sensitivity to variation in concepts leads to more innovative, breakthrough products.
“GPDIS is a unique conference that offers attendees the opportunity to learn about a range of process methods and tools to utilize product data throughout all stages of the product lifecycle,” said James Stoddard, President & CEO of Sigmetrix. “Our innovative solutions allow design teams to have confidence in their MBD definitions, improving quality and eliminating the need for a manual transfer of data. The result is the ability to get products to market more quickly with lower development, support, and maintenance costs throughout its lifecycle.”
Attendees will want to make sure to catch Ross Snyder, Applications Engineer, present “Connecting with Digital Workflow with Good Data” on Wednesday September 20th at 11:30 AM MST.
In addition to demonstrating CETOL 6σ at their booth Sigmetrix will be showing off their entire portfolio of comprehensive, easy-to-use solutions including:
- CETOL 6σ, a 3D tolerance analysis solution that works with designs from PTC Creo, SOLIDWORKS, CATIA V5-6, and NX CAD systems.
- GD&T Advisor, an interactive tool that provides expert guidance on the correct application of GD&T/GPS consistent with either the ASME or ISO standards.
- EZtol, a standalone 1-D tolerance stackup analysis tool that works with designs from most popular CAD systems as well as CAD-neutral file formats.
- Training provided through more than a dozen instructor-led and computer-based courses covering basic to advanced GD&T/GPS, MBE, and MBD.
- Consulting and Implementation services team with years of experience in tolerance analysis and GD&T definition offers a variety of consulting services to augment your team, speed your project along and run analyses for your assemblies.
