- How can you ensure your project teams deliver design-through-manufacturing projects on-time and on-budget?
- Collaborative product data management â or - cPDM, delivers improved collaboration in these key areas:Within your design teamsBetween your design and manufacturing departmentsand with external users such as field engineers, and with your suppliers and customersIn this presentation we will focus on the first of these areas â improved collaboration between your designers and across extended design teams
- In this presentation we will focus on improving collaboration for all users involved in the design process â a key issue here is that your users need to be able to find existing data quickly â and need good visibility of design changes that are in processcPDM addresses these issues by providing:Rapid retrieval of the correct data and increased reuse of existing designsElectronic workflows that alert all users of the status of design processesTransparent completion of data management tasksAnd Support for âParallel designâ processes - where work is performed collaboratively between multiple designers and with suppliers and customers Using these techniques designers can collaborate more easily and complete projects faster and with higher quality
- We see that in a lot of small- and medium-size manufacturing organizations data is stored in multiple locations and in multiple formats. Quite often duplicates of data are present, and - if one of the copies is modified - there are now two versions of the data â which is the correct one to use for manufacturing?Also â the ability to find existing designs that can be re-used in new assemblies, or used as the basis for new designs is limitedIndustry analyst Aberdeen Research found that a typical engineer spends 25 to 30% of their time searching for part information!
- Teamcenter Express brings your product data into a single database, and provides powerful and flexible methods to structure and search the dataSearches can be conducted not only from the full or ârichâ Teamcenter Express client, but from a web client and from CAD applications and Microsoft OfficeThe benefit to the user is less time spent searching for data, and increased reuse of proven components in new designs
- Item data management is a core concept of Teamcenter Express and brings real benefits in the area of collaboration:All types of data are associated to the item and this data is managed as a unit through release and change processes to ensure integrityThe benefits of this approach are that users can quickly see all the data associated with an item- This Improves collaboration and the understanding of the impact of a proposed change
- Teamcenter Express also delivers pre-configured, electronic workflows for managing the design processThrough these workflows users are notified immediately of tasks that require their attention â and the status of the design process is clearly visible to all users, promoting collaboration between all users involved in the design processLets see a short demonstration of how â with all your users working from a single source of product data â collaboration becomes a natural part of the design process
- Lets now look in more detail at how your designers who use CAD â and other users who use Microsoft Office - can collaborate more easily to complete design projects fasterFor Cad users Teamcenter Express supports:Secure vaulting, and version and revision management of CAD documentsSearching the cPDM database directly from CAD with graphical previews of the parts foundDisplay status of all parts referenced in an assembly - Alerting designers to changes being made that may impact their workAnd integrated release managementThis enables designers to collaborate more effectively throughout the design processLets see a demonstration of a CAD to cPDM integration â in this example we will use the âSolid Edge Embedded Clientâ â the integration between Siemenâs Solid Edge CAD software and Teamcenter Express
- Teamcenter Express also offers specific integration with Microsoft Office 2007 â for example with Word and Excel â this enables the users who utilize these applications to integrate their data into the single source of product data maintained by Teamcenter ExpressSome of the capabilities include:Searching the cPDM database directly from Microsoft Office applicationsIntegrating Microsoft Office documents into the single source of product dataAnd Managing Microsoft Office template filesThis enables all your users to collaborate effectively throughout the design process
- Another capability that enables more effective collaboration is the integration between Teamcenter Express and Microsoft Outlook 2007 - this enables workflow assignments created in Teamcenter Express to be rapidly communicated to your users through their standard email interface â and provides them with direct access to the workflow tasks and associated documentsLets see a quick demonstration of how users of Microsoft Office applications can improve their collaboration throughout the design process
- Lets look at how a Teamcenter Express customer - Back-Tech in Austria - has been able to improve their collaboration with Teamcenter Express This small manufacturing company develops and produces machinery used by commercial and industrial bakeries.A new design project begins with the layout of the entire project in Teamcenter Express - typically several designers work on one project simultaneously - with Teamcenter Express automatically handling the access and revision control - Designersâ time that used to be spent on tedious data management tasks has been almost completely eliminated.Another increase in efficiency â even more than Back-Tech had hoped for initially â is due to increased re-use of previously designed parts. These are not only easier to find, but they can be adapted to a new project with little effort on the part of the designer. Thanks to Teamcenter Express, Back-Tech is closer to fulfilling its mission of being one of the leading system suppliers in the field of small baked goods.
