Avio uses 3DEXPERIENCE to drive space tech innovation

Avio, a leading aerospace company specializing in launch vehicles and space propulsion systems, has embraced Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform to enhance its design, development, and collaboration processes for cutting-edge space technologies. The move marks a major step in Avio’s digital transformation journey, enabling the company to scale innovation while ensuring precision, safety, and agility across its space programs.

🚀 Digital Engineering for Next-Gen Spacecraft

By deploying the 3DEXPERIENCE platform on the cloud, Avio gains access to a comprehensive suite of integrated applications that support:

• 🌐 Model-based systems engineering (MBSE)

• 🧠 Collaborative design and simulation

• 🔧 Product lifecycle management (PLM) across all mission stages

This allows Avio’s teams to digitally model and validate each component of its space launch systems—from propulsion units to flight structures—well before physical production, reducing errors, cost, and development time.

🤝 Collaboration Across Programs and Partners

With the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, Avio can streamline its workflows between engineering, manufacturing, and supply chain teams, and more effectively collaborate with partners, space agencies, and research institutions. The cloud-based infrastructure ensures:

• 📂 Real-time data sharing and traceability

• 🔒 Enhanced data security and IP protection

• ⚙️ Faster decision-making through simulation-driven design

This is particularly crucial for complex programs such as Vega C, Avio’s flagship launch vehicle, where precision engineering and program agility are vital to mission success.

🌍 Advancing Europe’s Independent Access to Space

Avio’s adoption of this digital backbone reflects its commitment to maintaining Europe’s leadership in the space sector. By embracing digital continuity and simulation-driven innovation, Avio aims to:

• 🛰️ Develop more sustainable and reusable launch solutions

• 📉 Reduce time-to-launch and operational costs

• ♻️ Innovate toward greener propulsion systems and more efficient supply chains

The partnership with Dassault Systèmes also supports broader European goals of increasing autonomy in space access and promoting innovation within the region’s space tech ecosystem.
