BRM AERO, a Czech light sport aircraft manufacturer, implemented the 3DEXPERIENCE platform and Engineered to Fly solution on the cloud to improve design precision, manage part lifecycles, and reduce IT overhead. The platform supports sheet metal design, real-time design changes, weight optimization, and integration with ERP for part traceability. Benefits include faster customer response, lower infrastructure costs, and improved manufacturing accuracy through digital continuity from engineering to production.

Key takeaways

Cloud deployment eliminated hardware investment and IT maintenance for a 70-employee manufacturer

Sheet Metal Engineering enabled 3D-to-flat pattern design with 4700 rivet positioning for first-time assembly fit

Real-time design updates and customer visualization reduced response time for custom aircraft configurations

Part lifecycle management linked versioning, materials, costs, and suppliers to ERP for full traceability

Weight and material variables calculated automatically in 3D to optimize ultralight aircraft performance
