  1. Multi CAD organization in WindchillHow to use Windchill Workgroup Managers Ruben Pas, Technical Consultant

  2. USG Innotiv Product Development (65) Division of USG Innotiv (1500 people) Part of USG People(20.000 people) Introduction USG Innotiv Product Development Services Development Capacity Consulting Training Windchill workgroup managers

  3. PTC Platinum Strategic Service Partner Marketleader Benelux for services of PTC products Implementation Migration Process Support Certified implementer / migrator of PTC database applications Certified Trainer Partner of PTC Products Creo en Windchill Software customizations PD Services Windchill workgroup managers

  4. Speaker Introduction • Ruben Pas • Consultant USG-Innotiv Product Development (Spekan) • 11 years (Pro/ENGINEER) experience at several projects (Pro/E V17) → Creo Parametric • Support engineer • Creo View (ProductView) • Creo Illustrate • Creo Simulate (Pro/MECHANICA) • WindchillPDMLink / ProjectLink Windchill workgroup managers

  5. Agenda Goal Workgroup Manager Structures Benefits Workgroup Manager Interface Demo 1 Viewables and Viewable assemblies Demo 2 Q&A; Discussion Windchill workgroup managers

  6. Goal • Userday = USERS! • Practical issues • Mix of Tell me, Show me • Simple example, 2 part assembly • Demo using: • NX 7.5 (0.32) • Creo elements / Pro (m070) • Windchill 10 + Workgroup Manager (m020) • Creo View MCAD (m020) Windchill workgroup managers

  7. What is a Work Group Manager (WGM) An interface where designers or suppliers can perform everyday design tasks in their familiar MCAD environment while using Windchill to manage MCAD data throughout its lifecycle Windchill workgroup managers

  8. Windchill workgroup managers

  9. Application Management Windchill 10 Windchill workgroup managers

  10. WGM Structure WindchillPDMLink (the “Vault”) Windchill Worgroup Manager Creo Parametric / Pro/ENGINEER workspace … NX CATIA Inventor Solid Works Windchill workgroup managers

  11. WGM Structure for Suppliers Windchill PDMLink Creo Parametric / Pro/ENGINEER WindchillProjectLink Creo Parametric / Pro/ENGINEER Windchill Worgroup Manager … NX CATIA Inventor Solid Works Windchill workgroup managers

  12. Work Group Manager Interface Stand Alone application using local cache, connected to Windchill Offline work is possible! Windchill workgroup managers

  13. Interface MCAD, e.g. NX 7.5 Windchill workgroup managers

  14. Benefits • All data on one location (Intellectual Property on site) • WGM engineer uses “your” Way of Working • Extremely fast review capabilities through massive assemblies by Creo View • Review possibilities for everybody throughout the entire lifecycle • Cost savings on importing geometry • Cost savings on workstations / Creo Licenses Windchill workgroup managers

  15. What’s Required client side? • MCAD Software • WGM to be installed on local CAD workstation • Windchill ”heavy” license • Access to “your” Windchill environment • Training • Creo View Windchill workgroup managers

  16. What’s Required server side? • CAD Worker for Windchill for file conversion • MCAD software • Creo View Lite • Creo View MCAD for advanced features • Design Check • Interference Check • Assembly possibilities • Animations • Color assignments • …. Windchill workgroup managers

  17. Windchill Parts (WT Parts) Windchill parts are used to setup product structures CAD files are only a part of a product structure Windchill workgroup managers

  18. Demo 1 Create Pro/E part, Check-In; auto associate WT-Part Create NX part, Check-In; auto associate WT-Part Make small modification to show Windchillbehaviour Windchill workgroup managers

  19. Creo Elements / Pro Create geometry in Pro/E; note CSYS Windchill workgroup managers

  20. Creo Elements / Pro 5.0 Use File, Check-In, Custom Check-In to create viewable file from Creo Elements / Pro Auto Associate parts to create WT-part in the Check-In dialogbox, NEXT Windchill workgroup managers

  21. UGS NX 7.5 Create geometry in NX; note CSYS Windchill workgroup managers

  22. UGS NX 7.5 Use File, Check-In, Custom Check-In to create viewable file from NX 7.5 Auto Associate parts to create WT-part in the Check-In dialogbox, NEXT Windchill workgroup managers

  23. Windchill Actions Upload Check-In Check-Out Undo Check-Out Rename Update Synchronize Windchill workgroup managers

  24. Demo 2 Create new WT-part, Check-In and add existing WT-Part 1 and 2 Windchill workgroup managers

  25. Create “review” assy Create WT-Part from Workspace and Check-In Windchill workgroup managers

  26. Add existing WT-Part Insert Existing 1 Search Insert Existing 2 Search Result 2 Details Windchill workgroup managers

  27. Final Result Windchill workgroup managers

  28. Additional Assembly possibilities in Creo View MCAD Interference detection Mark Up mode NX drawings are embedded in viewables Viewables embedded in WT part, not in CAD document Windchill workgroup managers
