In a Granta web seminar (highlights available in the short video), Thibault Levy, speaks about the system put in place at SAFRAN to manage and distribute materials and process information. The SAFRAN engineering organization has been challenged by the need to move from certifying one engine every ten years to a much more rapid turnover of three engines every two years.
Because of this, they saw a requirement to save time in the communication between the materials lab in charge of producing materials data, and the design office, which would then use the materials information. Internally named MATEPEDIA, the integration with GRANTA MI has helped SAFRAN to save time, eliminate duplicate data, improve security and sustainability, and more.
