With the process of developing a product becoming increasingly complicated, your design centres spanning three continents, your manufacturing partners outsourced, and a shorter product lifecycle, how do you collaborate with your global team without losing control of your product development processes? The answer: Windchill.

Windchill is out-of-the-box and industry-proven. Based on hundreds of successful deployments across industries, we offer a comprehensive suite of collaboration and control solutions to support today’s distributed product development processes. Windchill enables manufacturers to streamline processes, fuel innovation, and ultimately, to deliver superior products.

Easy to use and requiring only a Web browser, Windchill brings the right people together at every step in the product lifecycle. Plus, it has the added benefits of interactive 3D visualisation capabilities and integration with every day tools such as Microsoft Office and CAD authoring software.

And because product development systems need to share information with other enterprise systems, Windchill is fully interoperable with enterprise systems such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP).

As a key component of PTC’s Product Development System, Windchill substantially reduces integration complexity, cost, and risk for companies of all sizes using product lifecycle management (PLM) initiatives.

Windchill ProjectLink
Windchill ProjectLink drives collaborative project management across the entire project team, using online project workspaces to improve communication and coordination. It features project management, CAD integrations, visualisation, and project templates to help you streamline all your business processes, from design reviews to portfolio management.

Windchill PDMLink
Windchill PDMLink aggregates and controls a variety of product information, such as requirements, MCAD, ECAD, analysis results, specifications, and service records, throughout the product lifecycle. It enables the global team to access and visualise current product versions, manage changes, and support different organisational views/configurations.

Windchill DynamicDesignLink
Windchill DynamicDesignLink fully automates the application engineering process, dramatically reducing the time it takes to configure design-to-order digital products.

Windchill PartsLink
Windchill PartsLink enables part reuse for greater design efficiencies. Users can search the Web-based libraries of internal and external components, preview the parts in a 3D viewer, then drag and drop actual models into an assembly.

Windchill Integrations
Windchill Integrations captures, controls and shares product information both internally and across enterprise boundaries. It enables communication between Windchill and heterogeneous CAD authoring tools, enterprise systems, and Web technologies.

Windchill ProductView
Windchill ProductView provides the whole team with access to product information earlier in the product development process. It features embedded capabilities for interactive 2D and 3D visual collaboration, mock-up, prototyping review and study.
