"Naro-Fominsk machine-building plant" introduces PLM-solution "Askon" in technological preparation of production

2021: Implementation of Ascon PLM Solution in Production Preparation

On November 10, 2021, Askon announced that the Naro-Fominsk Machine-Building Plant (UEC) is "digitizing" technological production preparation based on the Askon PLM solution

Naro-Fominsky machine-building the plant (part of United Engine Corporation"") conducted import substitution an engineering software and introduces an urgent approach to the technological preparation of the production of compressor blades of gas turbine engines. In this, he is assisted by the Russian the decisions of the Ascon company.

Previously, the company used a foreign design system to develop drawings and process documentation. Due to the growing volume of work and the need to get away from Western IT solutions, the search for an alternative has begun.

"We needed a system that would provide working tools for the plant's technologists and designers, as well as help organize a barrier-free exchange of engineering data between departments. Given that Ascona has a complex solution, the choice fell on it, "- tells the chief engineer of the NFMZ Nicolai Nikolaev.

As of November 10, 2021, the design documentation for the tooling is fully developed in the Compass-3D system using 3D modeling. Task lists are generated in the "Vertical" process design system. At the request of technologists, special process output forms have been set up. This work was carried out by specialists of the Ascon Volga Regional Center participating in the project.

Designers and technologists of the plant work with a single base of regulatory and reference information in the Polynom: MDM system.

"Our department is engaged in the development of technological equipment of varying degrees of complexity. We work a lot with the Mechanics: Springs application for Compass-3D, since our technological tooling often uses spring assemblies. The Dimension Chains application is useful. It can "prompt" the designer in advance about an error in the dimension chain that he may not have noticed. In addition, our department is involved in the development of site layouts in the workshops. construction The applications "" do well here. Compass We use the Polynomial:MDM Standard Products directory, and also try to unify the use of elements that are not included in the Ascon directories. To do this, with the help of our IT specialists, we record them in Polynom: MDM. So designers have a single base of regulatory reference information, which eliminates arbitrariness in working with directories. It is only in our hands that a centralized NSI management system is introduced throughout the corporation. Therefore, we first standardized data according to internal requirements, and then synchronized them with the Ascon systems, - explains the head of the design bureau of the department of the chief technologist Alexander Kirdyapkin.

In the next stages of the project, it is planned to deploy the engineering data management system "" at the plant and Pilot: PLM transfer infrastructure the Askon PLM solutions to. DBMS PostgreSQL
