ng.zine

– a software for concurrent and group design of complex engineering products

ng.zine is a software that provides a platform for concurrent and group design of complex engineering products with the same design tools as before the implementation of ng.zine thus not requiring any modernization of equipment or tools. In addition, it enables designers and other parties to track changes made in design process from any location in the world, and without changing the present design hierarchy.

Benefits of using ng.zine:

• Shorter design process due to simultaneous execution of design phases
• Design errors can be detected immediately because of the real-time exchange of parametric data between design tools
• The overall design process time can be reduced due to creation of a single model and annulled time needed for correction of errors
• Creation of multiple product models can be avoided by exchanging parametric data between integrated design tools
• More efficient design solutions can be achieved using multi-stakeholder approach
• Experienced designers can integrate their expertise into the system by using preference libraries, storing their previous experience for future use
• Accumulation of the complete history of the certain design evolution, providing knowledge data base for design development
