Description

Windchill is the industry-leading PLM software from PTC. Windchill’s open architecture enables easy integration with other enterprise systems, helping you quickly see value from your PLM software. With comprehensive out-of-the-box functionality and highly-configurable role and task-based apps, you can expand access to valuable product data to stakeholders who don’t typically use PLM while avoiding over-customization and complexity. For manufacturers embarking on digital transformation, Windchill provides a solid foundation for the smart, connected enterprise. By enabling a digital thread of information, manufacturers can build a digital twin, invest in IIoT technology, leverage augmented reality for better collaboration, or explore generative design and additive manufacturing.

PLM Functions For You

No matter what role you play in the engineering department, whether product development, software development or systems engineering, PLM can help you improve efficiency, unify stakeholders, and increase quality and time-to-market. With closed-loop PLM, manufacturing can concurrently plan and develop products while the service team can ensure it has the most up-to-date product information. And with AR design share, stakeholders throughout the organization can easier view and review product designs.
