Companies today have the need to integrate design and manufacturing and purchasing departments to reduce engineering costs, time waste caused by design errors, and generally improve the business processes in the enterprise. ETRAGE CAD Metadata Adapter provides real-time updates of BOM changes into the IFS ERP application, it streamlines data flow between the engineering, manufacturing and procurement departments. The software eliminates manual data entry or processes of large sets of data, speeds up inspection activities, and ensures that manufacturing and purchasing has access to the most up to date BOM inside the IFS.
Companies today have the need to integrate design and manufacturing departments to reduce engineering costs, time waste, and improve the business processes and in the enterprise. The adapter bridges the gap between the CAD and the IFS ERP environment.
The IFS Applications integration with the ShipConstructor Software provides a robust exchange of data between these systems. The integration uses EIS to transfer Bills of Materials (BOM), viewables, part numbers, attributes and more between assembly drawings automatically created by ShipConstructor and IFS Application suite. It provides real-time updates of BOM changes into the IFS ERP application, streamlines data flow between the engineering, manufacturing and purchasing departments, eliminates manual data entry or processes of large sets of data and insures that manufacturing and purchasing has access to the most up to date BOM and drawings inside the IFS.
Today’s business demands that CAD, PLM, PDM and design and engineering data be available instantly. ETRAGE Plot Service for PTC Windchill (PSW) easily extends representations of product and engineering data from Windchill for distribution beyond design and engineering functions.
