WindchilT Workgroup Manager for Autodesk® Inventor
DELIVERING THE POWER AND BENEFITS OF WINDCHILL TO THE AUTODESK INVENTOR ENVIRONMENT
With Windchill managing Autodesk Inventor
data, designers can perform everyday design
tasks in their familiar MCAD environment,
while leveraging the powerful process and
content management capabilities of Windchill
to manage the resulting design data throughout
its lifecycle.
Managing Autodesk Inventor data within Windchill allows
you to capture and control all your design information within
a single enterprise environment, manage the data under a
single product structure, and easily leverage that information
across the extended organization in a controlled manner.
Key Benefits
Improve collaboration
• Integrate the Autodesk Inventor design environment with
the wider enterprise in terms of business processes and
procedures
• Extend the sharing of design data beyond engineering
departmental and corporate
Improve data quality
• Eliminate mistakes associated with duplicate or incomplete
data by managing data from multiple CAD systems in a
single, controlled location under the umbrella of a single
product structure
• Centralize the management of business processes, such
as release procedures and change control
• Provide all relevant groups with accurate, up-to-date,
relevant 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 Windchill actions within the Autodesk Inventor
application, enabling designers to focus on design
activities rather than data management
• Minimize engineer interruptions by utilizing background
processes to upload files to Windchill, thus allowing the
designer to continue using Autodesk Inventor without
having to wait for database actions to complete
