  • Effective version control helps avoid rework and scrap caused by working from the outdated versions of 3D models and drawings .
  • Enables remote design locations to receive real-time updates on design changes coupled with automatic notifications.
  • Avoids having to spend time looking for or recreating documents that have been, moved, renamed, misplaced, or mistakenly deleted by unauthorized users.

 

Advantages of SOLIDWORKS PDM

SOLIDWORKS Data Management solutions enable complete control over all design information, eliminating concerns about version control or data loss. Files are securely stored and can be quickly retrieved using a variety of search attributes, such as part number, description, or workflow status. Collaboration and data reuse are promoted reducing duplicate files and redundant work. Design processes are easily followed and with increased efficiency. You get more opportunity to innovate and improve products, and stop spending time searching for files and worrying about manufacturing having the right design information.
