US-based electric vehicle company Harbinger adopted the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to manage the entire product development cycle of its innovative battery-electric chassis, which is helping to electrify medium-duty trucks. The company benefits from centralized data management and collaborative features.

A benchmark commercial EV built to last

As Harbinger gears up to launch its first commercial EVs to market in 2024, the company is beginning to take advantage of more features in the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, including DELMIA’s digital manufacturing and planning capabilities.

“We’re just starting to bring in elements of the platform that have a more future-looking scope such as DELMIA for build work and mBOM management,” Harris concluded. “It will be invaluable for helping us to figure out what assembly jigs we need and what order to put everything on the vehicle. The 3DEXPERIENCE platform also will support our trucks throughout their operational lifetime – around 20 years, which equates to 450,000 miles. We’re talking about maintenance planning, ergonomic studies and tool path planning. Everything needs to be easy to maintain and replace along the way.”
