Webinar on 'How to Reduce Design Rework? Transforming Design Reviews'

Growing Importance of Design Reviews Amid Increasing Product Complexity and Shorter Development Cycles Amid accelerating market changes and increasingly diverse customer needs, manufacturers are under pressure to bring new products to market faster. Maintaining or improving quality while shortening development timelines has become a critical challenge.

At the same time, product sophistication has led to multi-domain development involving mechanical, electrical/electronic, and control systems, making product development inherently more complex.

To shorten development cycles, it is now more important than ever to adopt front-loading strategies—engaging relevant departments early in the design phase to identify issues from multiple perspectives—rather than discovering problems late in the process and requiring rework.

Rework Persists Despite Adoption of 3D CAD and CAE While many manufacturing sites have adopted 3D CAD and CAE tools, advancing digitalization in design and simulation, using these tools in isolation does not necessarily eliminate downstream rework or misalignment between departments.

For example: - Simulation results may not reflect real-world conditions due to discrepancies in analysis settings - A design may be technically sound but reveal assembly or operational difficulties from a manufacturing engineering perspective - Product size and spatial relationships, unclear on screen, may cause issues later in development - Issues like tool access or reachability may only become apparent during prototyping

Therefore, it is essential to move beyond isolated use of 3D CAD and CAE. Instead, designers, analysts, and manufacturing engineers must share the same 3D models and simulation results to conduct early, collaborative reviews from diverse viewpoints.

Advancing 3D CAD and CAE to Cross-Departmental Virtual Design Reviews This seminar will focus on the 'Virtual Design Review (VDR)' system, which leverages Creo 3D CAD and VR technology. We will demonstrate how design, simulation, and manufacturing teams can collaboratively review 3D data in a shared environment.

We will explain practical strategies—illustrated with real user cases—for identifying product size, layout, tool accessibility, and ergonomic reachability early in design, thereby reducing downstream issues, rework, redesign, and revalidation.

Additionally, we will introduce how such 3D data utilization can evolve into digital twins, showcasing future possibilities with NVIDIA Omniverse—a platform for integrating and visualizing CAD and simulation data.

Who Should Attend - Professionals using 3D CAD or CAE but struggling to share design and simulation data across departments - Engineers seeking to reduce rework, redesign, and reanalysis caused by late-stage issues in prototyping or production preparation - Teams aiming to establish a collaborative review environment where design, simulation, and manufacturing engineers can jointly evaluate 3D models - Designers wanting to assess product size, layout, tool access, and reachability early in development - Organizations looking to evolve their 3D CAD and CAE data usage from virtual design reviews toward digital twin implementation
