Leading automation developer uses Tecnomatix Process Simulate from Siemens to validate engine assembly line in three months

Wipro PARI is a leading global developer of automation and robotic systems that was founded in 1990. Headquartered in Pune, India, its customers include established automotive original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) such as Daimler, Mahindra, Ford, FCA, TATA, VinFast, Renault Nissan, and The PSA Group. Wipro PARI designs, manufactures, and installs complete, automated systems, including multi-station lines for machining and powertrain component assemblies.

Wipro PARI sought to digitalize their manual engineering efforts. The company wanted to reduce work in manufacturing, eliminate unexpected software bugs that were delaying the physical commissioning process, and accelerate the time from machine commissioning to live production.

Wipro PARI selected Process Simulate in the Tecnomatix® portfolio from Siemens for their virtual commissioning (VC) solution. The VC process uses simulation technology to create a digital twin of a plant for testing changes before physically implementing them. VC enables manufacturers to perform end-to-end virtual verification, mechanical and control systems design, as well as risk and failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA). This solution ultimately enables engineers to avoid cost-intensive rework.

By incorporating VC into an automotive OEM project for a large machining line, Wipro PARI minimized rework by as much as 50 percent and reduced delivery time by as much as 10 percent. “Virtual commissioning enables us to validate and optimize equipment performance for all complex use cases and failure modes early in the project lifecycle,” claims Dr. Ranjit Date, chief executive officer (CEO) of Wipro PARI.

Wipro PARI completed another VC project of a production volume-up on a brownfield engine assembly line in three months from design to shop floor commissioning. This could have been a six-to-eight-month job in normal conditions. In addition to improving process reliability and resolving design and process issues early on, they reduced on-site commissioning time by 70 percent.

“With Siemens’ solution, we have significantly improved performance ramp up and mitigated risks,” states Date. They also improved collaboration between design and manufacturing by removing barriers between mechanical, electrical, and controls engineers.

Tecnológico de Monterrey in its Mexico City and Santa Fe campuses has introduced the Mendix Rapid Developer certification for students of the School of Engineering and Sciences. This certification, carried out in collaboration with Siemens, is unique in the country and has been awarded to students in the Cyber-Physical Systems concentration in Mexico City and the Cybersecurity concentration in Santa Fe. According to Softserve, 77% of organizations currently use low-code platforms, and Mendix is one of the most popular and highest rated globally. David Navarro, professor at the School of Engineering and Science in Mexico City, emphasizes that this certification has professional recognition and seeks to boost students’ career paths.

“Technology is advancing day by day, so it is a priority to receive certifications of this type.”

“This certification helps future engineers to boost their careers, to be more visible in the labor market and develops skills for the implementation of emerging technologies such as design and web applications.

“For engineering students it is important to be constantly updated, since technology advances day by day, so it is a priority to receive certifications of this type,” he emphasizes.

So far, the certification will continue to be offered at the Santa Fe and Mexico City campuses.

However, Professor David Navarro comments that this certification is the beginning of more collaborations.

“It is expected that more companies will seek to collaborate with us, to be able to offer different certifications and in other Tec campuses outside the Mexico City region”.

The Mendix Rapid Developer certification covers the configuration of projects in Mendix and the creation of applications with pages, as well as the deployment of these applications in the cloud.

This level of certification validates that the person has the necessary knowledge to effectively use the Mendix platform and can develop prototypes autonomously. Mendix is a low-code application creation platform used in various industries, such as industrial, pharmaceutical, banking and manufacturing, to address specific problems and improve efficiency. At the same time, this certification strengthens problem-solving skills, improves understanding of software development processes and encourages systematic thinking.
