Is your company planning to switch to a new system? This usually requires data migration and also often involves data conversion. Which is why you should look for an experienced migration partner early on – a partner who will help you prepare the project thoroughly with the aim of implementing it in a structured manner using powerful tools. This ensures you peace of mind during this phase.

Product data management, or PDM for short, is used in the administration and organisation of all data generated during the development of products. You can find out what constitutes product data management (PDM) and what differentiates it from product lifecycle management (PLM) at XPLM.

In the context of the product engineering process (PEP), BOMs act as a company-wide communication tool and lie at the heart of every manufacturing company. They provide the information basis for all the departments involved. Intelligent CAD-PLM and CAD-ERP connectors generate, manage and transmit BOMs electronically. They thus play a key role in saving time and costs.

The increasing level of networking of ever more powerful products is not making engi-neering any easier. The comparison of a server-based product data management system with PLM-assisted data and process control reveals opportunities for enhanced produc-tivity coupled with shorter innovation cycles.

Every company needs to migrate data from time to time. The combination of well-founded process know-how with the right tools and a well thought-out approach ensures the success of the project - as is the case at Wintersteiger AG.

Yes, CAD data can be exchanged directly within the framework of interdisciplinary collaboration. The positive impact on the innovation process that the combination of a mechatronic PLM data model and intelligent CAD-PLM connectors has is, however, unbeatable.

The Digital Product Model Exchange Stadrard (DPMX) simplifies Circuit Board Designers and subcontractors their tasks, as it notably simplifies the exchange of data. Therefore, it is quite understandable that XPLM stands up for this standard.

Both the migration of the EPLAN workstations from Siemens Teamcenter to PTC Windchill as well as the integration of the EPLAN workstations in PTC Windchill was completed much faster than planned. The specification: The new interface should work as well as its predecessor and the PLM architecture needs to support the globally distributed sites in managing their compliance-compliant product versions that deviate from the standard.

Cutting-edge technology has become fast moving and is subject to complex requirements. An interoperable system landscape with clearly structured, comprehensive product data and digitally controlled processes helps you to adapt flexibly to new market conditions.

Fill GmbH is a globally active machine builder for a wide variety of production processes, its electrical CAD solutions integrated in PRO.FILE. But new technologies require new workflows. On the occasion of the introduction of EPLAN, the engineering processes were redefined.

MEIKO Maschinenbau GmbH & Co. KG supplies professional, precisely tailored rinsing and disinfection systems worldwide. The Revit file supplied by the customer includes the room and trade plans - the basis for the plant concept and installation. One project goal was the simplified data exchange of information of individual trades.
