Case Study: Moriroku Technology achieves 30% reduction in design time with Dassault Systemes' CATIA PLM Express

Reducing design time by 30% with CATIA PLM Express

Moriroku Technology, a Japan-based leader in plastic interior and exterior automotive parts, faced shortening design-to-production cycles, frequent model-specific modifications, and intense cost pressure—setting a target to cut development time by two-thirds. To boost design productivity and standardize workflows, Moriroku adopted Dassault Systemes’ CATIA solutions, specifically the CATIA for Automotive Suppliers offering based on CATIA PLM Express.

Dassault Systemes implemented CATIA PLM Express capabilities—2D-to-3D layout, knowledgeware templates and functional modelling—to enable concurrent engineering, automate repetitive tasks and make design intent easily editable across teams. The solution standardized large-scale modeling, accelerated development procedures and delivered measurable impact: Moriroku Technology reduced design time and total man-hours by about 30% and streamlined its product development process.
