In the midst of an industrial awakening, two American manufacturing entities, Highland Vans and Behlen Manufacturing, have emerged as beacons of innovation and adaptability. Their stories, while distinct in product and purpose, converge on a common narrative: the transformative embrace of digital technologies to redefine the essence of manufacturing.
Highland Vans: Steering Innovation on Wheels
Nestled in the vibrant heart of the adventure lifestyle movement, Highland Vans began its journey with a simple yet audacious goal: to convert ordinary vans into extraordinary homes on wheels. The company, which was birthed in the driveway of its founder, Szymon, has rapidly ascended to the forefront of the camper van conversion market, propelled by an unwavering commitment to precision, customization, and scalability.
The leap from manual craftsmanship to digital excellence was catalyzed by the integration of DELMIAWorks ERP and 3DEXPERIENCE solutions from Dassault Systèmes. This pivotal transition enabled Highland Vans to meticulously design and fabricate bespoke van interiors with unprecedented efficiency and accuracy. By harnessing the power of digital tools, Highland Vans has not only accelerated its production timelines but has also elevated the quality and intricacy of its conversions, setting new industry standards for innovation and customer satisfaction.
