UAC, in collaboration with Russian IT companies, is developing an industry-specific digital environment for designing, testing, and manufacturing aircraft based on domestic software products, according to corporation head Yuri Slyusar at the "Digital Industry of Industrial Russia" (CIPR-2024) conference.
The transition to Russian software is overseen by the Industry Competence Center "Aircraft Construction," headed by Slyusar. The center is implementing three major projects. The first is a PLM system (Product Lifecycle Management) based on the T-FLEX PLM platform (developer "Top Systems").
According to Slyusar, the corporation will complete the preparation of the technical project in May and proceed to the pilot operation of the PLM system. With its help, engineers will be able to design individual units, systems, fuselage elements, and the aircraft's airframe.
We have the personnel. Most employees have IT competencies.
He emphasized that the task remains to develop a module for designing composite products for aircraft.
ERP Platform and Virtual Modeling Complex
In addition, the "Aircraft Construction" center is developing an import-independent "heavy-class" ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system on the 1C platform. Its scope will include modules for managing material and technical resources and the quality of finished products.
The third project is being implemented by TsAGI specialists in the interests of defense industry enterprises. It concerns a software and hardware complex for virtual modeling based on "LOGOS" (developed by Rosatom, industrial CAE-class software).
