Delivering the Power and Benefits of PTC Windchill to the CAT IA V5 Environment

Designers can now perform everyday design tasks in their familiar

MCAD environment while using PTC Windchill to manage CATIA V5

data throughout its lifecycle.

Managing CATIA V5 data within PTC Windchill allows

you to capture and control your design information

within a single enterprise environment, manage

the data undera single product structure, and easily

leverage that information across the extended

organization in a controlled manner.

Key benefits

Improve collaboration

• Fully incorporate the use of CATIA V5 data in

product development processes that span

multiple organizations

• Extend the sharing of design data beyond engineer-

ing, departmental and corporate boundaries using

standard Internet technology

Improve data quality

• Eliminate mistakes associated with duplicate or

incomplete data by managing data from multiple

MCAD and ECAD/EDA systems in a single, con-

trolled location underthe umbrella of a single

product structure

• Centralize the management of business processes,

such as change control

• Provide all relevant groups with accurate, up-to-

date, product content information that's held in a

single location

Improve engineer productivity

• Increase operating efficiency by reusing design

data and reducing the number of design steps

• Embed PTC Windchill actions within the CATIA V5

application, enabling designers to focus on design

activities ratherthan data management

• Minimize engineer interruptions by utilizing back-

ground processes to upload files to PTC Windchill,

thus allowing designers to continue using CATIA V5

without having to wait for database actions
