Benefits
Eliminate Engineering PLM Clerical Work
- With CAD Connector, your engineering team can focus on what they do best: Engineering. Double and triple data entries are eliminated and engineering information is input into your CAD software and PLM system in one simplified interface. Create new items in the item master simply by having CAD Connector pull the data from the CAD model, and push it to the PLM.
- Free up engineering staff to do more engineering and reduce your engineering costs. The less time they spend inputting data across multiple platforms, the more time they can invest on projects and designs.
Reduce Data Entry Errors
When entering data into two separate databases, there is a large possibility of discrepancies due to typos or mistakes. These are common when Engineers are tasked to fill multiple fields for every assembly, subassembly and part by hand. By unifying the data entry process, CAD Connector eliminates sources of error in transferring data between your CAD model and PLM system. Have your Engineers get things right the first time, saving their time and your costs.
