PTC (Needham, MA) announced that Jaeger-LeCoultre, the Swiss subsidiary of Richemont International S.A., adopted the PTC Product Development Solution including Pro/ENGINEER, Mathcad and ProductView to develop its entire product portfolio of watches and clocks. Jaeger-LeCoultre will use Pro/ENGINEER for 3D digital modeling, machining, and simulation, ProductView for 3D visual collaboration between various departments, and Mathcad for performing and documenting engineering calculations. Today, PTC’s solutions contribute to the success of Jaeger-LeCoultre products. The clock and watchmaker also plans to implement PTC’s Arbortext content publishing system to manage its technical documentation.

Jaeger-LeCoultre stands apart from its competitors with its guarantee of 100% Swiss design and manufacture. Because of this guarantee, Jaeger-LeCoultre does not have outsourcing as an option to strengthen its product development process and must instead rely solely on superior quality and high precision products.

Jaeger-LeCoultre has also turned to PTC to implement a collaborative design method with a wider,  faster and more reliable form of data sharing. All involved – project managers, engineers and purchasers – can now work on the same project simultaneously, without the risk of conflict or error.
