EnSuite Enables Seamless Product Knowledge Sharing

By DE Editors

EnSuite from CCE (Farmington Hills, MI) offers a complete solution for seamless sharing of product knowledge across the enterprise. All departments in the enterprise including purchasing, manufacturing, quality control, packaging, marketing, customer service, and engineering can use EnSuite to access product information stored in the master CAD data file.

The latest EnSuite update, which will be available to all active subscription license customers as well as to new customers, eliminates the need of using expensive CAD systems or viewers and translators to access the product information, irrespective of CAD system in which the data was created.

Engineering can open/view CAD files from multiple formats, create heterogeneous assemblies, locate individual parts in a complex assembly by simply using the ‘isolate’ tool and lots more. Add to that EnSuite’s capability of handling latest-version files from multiple CAD formats (CATIA V4, V5, SolidWorks, Pro/E, Unigraphics, Parasolid, IGES and STEP) makes it the tool-of-choice for enterprise wide and external supply chain interfacing usage.

EnSuite provides tools to access Bill-Of-Materials of an assembly and to identify relationships among components (parent-child) to assist purchasing departments. Manufacturing support could access the same assembly and check for interference/clearance among mating parts. Quality Control can access EnSuite’s compare tool for visual verification and QC of designed/manufactured parts, as well as its redlining feature during design review/collaboration. Customer service, as well as sales and marketing departments also benefit, says the company.
