Vistagy's SyncroFIT 2011 Establishes Digital Thread for Airframe Assembly, VISTAGY
Release Date: 2011-08-03
WALTHAM, Mass., (USA), August 3, 2011 — VISTAGY, Inc., a leading provider of industry-specific engineering software and services, today announced the release of SyncroFIT® 2011, which enables airframe manufacturers to meet the challenges of model-based development with specific emphasis on implementing advanced manufacturing processes for airframe assembly. SyncroFIT improves the entire assembly process spanning the earliest stages of design through manufacturing planning, fabrication, inspection, and support. And it increases the efficiency and accuracy of airframe assembly development by enabling commercial 3D CAD users to fully define and manage fasteners, holes, joints, and interfaces between parts within complex assemblies. The 2011 version of SyncroFIT delivers key new functionality for increasing productivity, eliminating error-induced engineering change orders, and enabling a seamless flow of airframe engineering data throughout the enterprise. The deployment of the software by Bombardier Aerospace provides evidence of the software’s ability to streamline the airframe development process.
As a key component of the VISTAGY AeroSuite™, which also includes FiberSIM® for designing and manufacturing innovative, durable and lightweight composite structures, the Quality Planning Environment™ for developing plans to assess aerostructure quality, and VISTAGY professional services, SyncroFIT is helping manufacturers meet demanding schedule and cost targets while improving the overall quality of the final product. By transforming the 3D CAD system into an efficient airframe development system, SyncroFIT enables engineers to make better-informed decisions throughout the development process and quickly adapt to the inevitable changes that occur.
“The new capabilities in SyncroFIT 2011 enhance the digital thread from design-to-manufacturing, greatly facilitating the assembly of high quality airframes on schedule and on budget,” said Steve Peck, director of product and market strategy for VISTAGY. “By working closely with partners such as CGTech and Delta Sigma Corporation, SyncroFIT is now able to support the most advanced design and manufacturing processes available today, enabling our customers to meet their goals.”
