Who is FLYING WHALES ?

 

Founded in 2012, Flying Whales aims at revolutionizing the airship to provide a high-capacity transportation solution that is both more environmentally friendly and more economical. As a pioneer in the transportation of wood and large industrial parts in landlocked regions, the French company chose Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE cloud-based technology platform to carry out this large-scale project.

“We are managing a project based on innovation. To succeed, we needed one single collaborative system to simulate the behavior of the airship and the different systems to be able to validate the design before certification, manufacturing, assembling, operating and maintaining.”

Nicolas Weisse, Overall Airship Design Leader

Why did Flying Whales choose the 3DEXPERIENCE platform?

 

Flying Whales is facing many challenges and issues that are an opportunity for it to constantly innovate. To do this, FLYING WHALES wanted to implement an end-to-end solution that would combine collaboration and quality. The 3DEXPERIENCE platform perfectly meets the company needs by offering a more collaborative way of working, tools and processes that meet the requirements of certifications and the integration of industrial and technological partners.

 

Today, the use of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform coupled with the valuable support offered by KEONYS allows FLYING WHALES to meet its development priorities while optimising working methods.
