Sinara Transportation’s Center for Research and Development
Sinara Transportation’s Center for Research and Development uses the most modern approaches in the sphere of engineering
Main principles of the development:
- System engineering and V-cycle.
- Collection and control of requirements.
- Electronic model of the product (electronic designing documentation) + digitalPlatform on the basis of Siemens PLM.
- Principle of product platforms and unification.
- Concept of a life cycle and RAMS (Reliability and maintainability).
- Multivariate optimization, calculations and digital twin.
- Digital plant (electronic technical documentation).
- Interactive electronic technical manuals (IETM) for service and repair.
- Industrial design.
