About Windchill

Windchill, developed by PTC, is a powerful PLM platform designed for digital product definition, configuration, and lifecycle management. It supports global collaboration, integrates with IoT and AR, and provides real-time access to accurate product data across the enterprise.

Windchill Capabilities

Centralized Product Data Management (PDM)

Windchill consolidates product information into a unified platform, ensuring all stakeholders access accurate, up-to-date data. This reduces duplication, improves collaboration, and provides a trusted single source of truth across the enterprise.

Advanced BOM Management

Supports engineering, manufacturing, and service BOMs with full synchronization. Windchill eliminates inconsistencies, allowing teams to collaborate seamlessly and reducing delays caused by misaligned data across departments.

Seamless CAD Integration

Windchill integrates with major CAD tools like Creo, SolidWorks, CATIA, and AutoCAD. This tight integration ensures smooth data exchange, faster design iterations, and reduced manual errors.

Change & Configuration Management

Provides structured workflows for change requests, approvals, and configurations. Windchill ensures complete traceability, regulatory compliance, and reduced cycle times for engineering changes.

Secure Document Management

Manage product documentation, drawings, and technical files in a secure repository. Windchill offers robust version control and role-based access, ensuring stakeholders always work with approved documents.

Requirements & Quality Management

Link requirements to product designs and processes to ensure compliance. Windchill enables traceability from requirements to test results, reducing risks of costly rework.

Variant & Option Management

Simplify complexity by managing product variants and configurations within a single platform. Windchill enables enterprises to deliver customized solutions while maintaining efficiency and cost control.

Manufacturing Process Planning (MPP)

Connect design and manufacturing with integrated process planning. Windchill ensures manufacturability is addressed early, reducing errors and enabling smooth shop-floor execution.

Supplier & Partner Collaboration

Provide suppliers with secure access to product data for real-time collaboration. Windchill improves supply chain efficiency while protecting intellectual property with controlled permissions.

Simulation & Validation Management

Link simulation models and results with product data to validate designs early. Windchill reduces reliance on physical prototypes, saving time and costs while improving design confidence.

Compliance & Standards Management

Automates compliance tracking with industry and government standards. Windchill provides traceability and audit-ready records, ensuring organizations meet regulatory requirements without delays.

Flexible Deployment & Scalability

Available on-premise, in the cloud, or in hybrid environments, Windchill scales with business growth. Its modular design supports enterprises of all sizes across multiple industries.
