At Palfinger Ned-Deck, the introduction of PLM did not stop with comprehensive version management. This was just part of a bigger plan. For example, with the introduction of PRO.FILE, the step towards 'compliance' with the ISO-9001 quality procedures have been made. Significant productivity gains have been made with the controlled reuse of existing designs for new customer-specific orders. Furthermore, with PRO.FILE ETOR technology, not impeded by distance and limited bandwidth, the engineering departments of the subsidiary office in Vietnam and the head office in Barneveld are connected and engineers can work together on the Solid Edge design data in projects.
Palfinger Ned-Deck is specialized in the development of launch and recovery systems.
