TYAZHMASH Increases Production 80% Using CATIA PLM Express and 3DVIA Composer
Case study shows how TYAZHMASH shortened design cycles, cut documentation time 50%, and raised output 80% with CATIA PLM Express and 3DVIA Composer.
JSC TYAZHMASH, a Russian heavy machinery manufacturer, implemented CATIA PLM Express to manage large assemblies and 3DVIA Composer to generate technical documentation. The switch from 2D drafting to 3D virtual design reduced development time, lowered rejects by 50%, and enabled right-first-time manufacturing on 5-axis milling machines. Documentation preparation time fell by half while interactive 3D materials improved global customer communication and contract win rates.
CATIA PLM Express supported large assembly modeling and NC path simulation for 5-axis machining
Production volume rose 80% and product rejects dropped 50% after PLM adoption
3DVIA Composer cut technical documentation preparation time by 50%
Designers moved from 2D drafting tables to 3D virtual applications within two years
Interactive 3D documentation reduced translation costs and improved customer contract closure rates
