AutoVue integrates with PTC's Windchill system
Cimmetry Systems, developer of Viewing, Markup and Collaboration solutions, announces the integration of their flagship product, AutoVue with PTC's Windchill system.
Cimmetry's AutoVue addresses these needs by delivering the unique ability to combine native EDA and MCAD parts, components and assemblies in a digital mockup without losing any of the intelligence and attribute data of the original files.
AutoVue stands out from the crowd, going beyond conventional visualisation and collaboration functionality by including virtual prototyping and design validation tools in one all-inclusive solution.
"Cimmetry's AutoVue visualisation and collaboration environment facilitates product design review and validation, product manufacturing, and all supply chain activities with support for the integration of disparate CAD databases into a final digital product assembly", said Versprille.

"All users within an enterprise (design, engineering, manufacturing, purchasing, marketing, executive offices) or externally (business partners, suppliers, customers and regulatory bodies) can participate at each stage of product development to simulate models and assemblies on-the-fly and project real-world manufacturability without the expense and time associated with conventional physical prototypes".
"Strong capabilities in interference checking, design validation, manufacturability testing, and innovative cross-probe functionality make AutoVue a leading solution for enterprises along all supply chain activities", said Versprille.
"CPDA recommends all product developers investigate Cimmetry Systems' AutoVue as their visualisation and collaboration product of choice".
