| Two Additional Patents to Design Methodologies Portfolio Delphi Technologies, Inc. announced further validation of its standardized design methodologies with the addition of two more patents. Delphi's Design Methodologies (DDM) are used in CAD/CAM design to help reduce product and process design costs and increase productivity throughout the design-to-manufacturing cycle. With the addition of these two patents, Delphi further strengthens its growing patent portfolio for its innovative CAD/CAM methodologies. DDM are a set of standardized methodologies. Using existing CAD software programs, designers can produce higher quality 3D CAD models that are easier to edit and change in design, engineering and other downstream functions. Like Six Sigma and other popular standardized methodologies, the business benefits of DDM include reduced cycle times, faster change processing, reduced waste, greater efficiency and faster time to market. The two new patents, the horizontal structured manufacturing process model and the vertical to horizontal conversion process, increase the strength of the standardized methodologies developed by Delphi Technologies Inc. by allowing more flexibility. write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Computing News :: home page |
