Establish a collaborative environment and take control of your product data by combining Solid Edge� software and Teamcenter� software. Teamcenter integration for Solid Edge (Solid Edge embedded client) provides a full range of product lifecycle management (PLM) capabilities, allowing users to reduce product development time and cost. A single source of product data for design and manufacturing teams helps optimize the design-through-manufacturing process.

Capture, manage and share Solid Edge data using Teamcenter
The Teamcenter integration with Solid Edge enables design information created in Solid Edge to be easily captured, controlled and shared in the highly secure Teamcenter PLM environment with no additional effort for the user. Comprehensive revision management and access control capabilities guarantee the right people get the right information at the right time. Whether users require the latest design revisions or a released revision, you can establish revision controls for parts, assemblies and drawings. Release processes ensure your data is protected throughout the lifecycle. Implicit and visual check in/check out status assures data is not overwritten while keeping all users aware of work being performed by others. To maximize productivity, teams can work offline, making design data available in the field.

Quickly search and access Solid Edge parts, assemblies and drawings to eliminate wasted time trying to find and share design information. Shape search capabilities identify similar parts in the Teamcenter database, based on shape and property data, to sort through duplicate designs and reduce costs from different suppliers.

This integration goes beyond workgroup computer-aided design (CAD) data management, utilizing a single source of product data, which enables design and manufacturing teams to work closely together to streamline product development and manufacturing delivery processes.
