Lumberg Group Optimizes Concurrent Engineering with PTC CoCreate

By DE Editors

PTC (Needham, MA) announced that Lumberg Group (Schalksmühle, Germany) has optimized its product development process with CoCreate, PTC's explicit modeling and data management software that provides companies with a lightweight and flexible approach to designing products.

Lumberg uses CoCreate Modeling and CoCreate Model Manager for parallel development of its customized products and manufacturing technology. Lumberg is supported by PTC partner ASCAD for all CAD/PDM engineering services.

Lumberg Group, whose core of products is composed of products for the automotive, photovoltaic, telecommunication, and appliance industries, operates development and manufacturing locations in Europe, America, and Asia.

To meet the extremely short development cycles typical in these industries, Lumberg required a development solution that supported parallel design of its products and manufacturing technology. As soon as the first new product concept is realized in 3D, development of the production technology begins. Using CoCreate provides the design team with flexibility to respond to unforeseen changes up until the last minute of the design process.
