BODY IN WHITE

	Early stage Synchronization with PDM data for enforcing concurrent engineering practice.
	Managing MBoM early for faster visualization of anticipated manufacturing problems
	Support for engineering change on parts and fasteners

	Welding and assembly process definition
	Weld point allocation and balancing
	Weld gun selection and design using state management
	Datum and reference allocation
	Geometric interference checking for validation of selection. Often some small arm design change will help solving interference issues

	Balancing fasteners according to assembly sequence and Cycle time evaluation
	Define where in the assembly process all the Weld Points can be done taking care of the targeted cycle time defined
	3D selection of welds in context of the assembly and automatic cycle time estimation

	Design of automated stations in context of assembly operation
	Layout design
	Visual Allocation of Resource to Station based on Process Plan

	BiW Process Report Generation
	Define global allocation of: Parts, Weld Points, - Weld Gun, Robots and side line equipment.
	Define Station Process sheet

Body development programs involve OEM and supplier working concurrently in close synchronization and communication. CAMeLEAN^®'s Body in White [BiW] solution offers such concurrent engineering support and lets suppliers propose alternatives to the OEM approach and enables OEM to look at suppliers work and decide the final production process. It's Live Program update helps evaluate critical path tracking from the OEM point of view specially when a lot of Tiers are involved. With its advanced weld management capabilities and powerful line optimization functionality, CAMeLEAN^® BiW enables Manufacturers to define and control an extremely powerful Body Development Program with a detailed BiW Process plan to accompany such a program - for keeping a tight leash on quality and consistency which can be repeated anytime, anywhere, anyplace.

Besides allowing Manufacturers to work in close coordination with suppliers in defining the Body Development Program, CAMeLEAN^® BiW brings significant improvements and benefits in the following spheres:

	Greater effectiveness in communication & collaboration: 30%
	Reduction in number of design changes: 50%
	Time savings from shortening the Manufacturing Planning Process: 35%
	Savings in Tool Design: 25%
