Tecnomatix Solutions Help Truck Manufacturer Shrink Production Costs and Avoid Unnecessary Capital Expenditures

Mack Trucks, Inc. is one of North America's largest producers of heavy-duty trucks. The company's bulldog mascot, which adorns the hood of all Mack trucks, symbolizes the legendary strength and durability of these vehicles. Mack Trucks wanted to evaluate alternate layouts and material handling scenarios virtually also wanted to predict outcome of plant changes before making them. To master these challenges Mack Trucks chose Siemens PLM Software. Mack Trucks deployed Tecnomatix FactoryCAD and FactoryFlow to evaluate alternate assembly and material handling scenarios and to predict the outcome of proposed changes before they were adopted.
