Overview:

Collaborating with today’s dispersed design teams introduces risk when moving from team-level engineering design to the larger released product record and manufacturing. Design teams utilize SOLIDWORKS work-in-progress (WIP) tools to ensure engineers do not step on each other’s toes during early design. Once the individual designs are mature enough, they need to be incorporated into the full product design with other mechanical, electrical, software, and documentation components. With Arena–XPLM Integration for SOLIDWORKS, teams have an automated and easy process that reduces errors and accelerates the NPI process.

The Arena–XPLM Integration for SOLIDWORKS provides design teams with the ability to create and publish parts, BOMs, and files from within SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional (PDMP) to Arena. SOLIDWORKS PDM users publish the engineering BOM and configurable file types such as PDF, STEP, or CAD data to Arena. All integration activities can be accessed in SOLIDWORKS PDMP using the workflow, tasks, menus, and data cards.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Ensure operations team feedback early in the design process, in support of design for manufacturing (DFM) framework
  • Reduce onboarding and training time by removing the need to learn how to duplicate same or similar tasks in multiple systems
  • Support business needs with configuration options for publishing part data based on design scenarios
  • Eliminate the risks of data entry errors
  • Ensure everyone is working from the same, most current product record and associated files

SOLUTION FEATURES

  • User Interface in SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional - Publish by event or on-demand to Arena
  • Publish a new part and BOMs from SOLIDWORKS PDMP to Arena
  • Support of SOLIDWORKS PDMP configurations
  • Publish derived files (MS Office, PDF, STEP, other configurable file types) from SOLIDWORKS PDMP to Arena, associating these file(s) to related parts in Arena
