Standard Software + Innovation = True Manufacturing Integration

Curtiss-Wright Corporation is a diversified company that designs, manufactures and overhauls products for motion control and flow control applications. The company's continuous improvement program addresses the challenge by constantly seeking new ways to hold down costs and reduce cycle times. Management recently set an ambitious target of achieving a 50 percent cycle time reduction over the course of two years. To master these challenges Curtiss-Wright chose Siemens PLM Software. Curtiss-Wright deployed Tecnomatix MES for Electronics from Siemens. Tecnomatix delivers this information electronically to manufacturing engineers and shop floor personnel, eliminating the labor that used to be required to obtain and distribute these documents.
