PTC announced that Nimble, a company in AI robotics and autonomous logistics technology, is replacing its legacy computer-aided design (CAD), product data management (PDM), product lifecycle management (PLM), and quality management system (QMS) tools with PTC’s cloud-native Onshape CAD and PDM platform and cloud-native Arena PLM and QMS platform.
In less than 60 days after initial evaluation, Nimble made a decision to transition from file-based tools in favor of connected, cloud-native solutions to streamline collaboration, reduce latency, and improve system reliability across teams, PTC reports.
"With Onshape and Arena, we now have a connected, cloud-native development process that eliminates the bottlenecks we faced with file-based tools," says Simon Kalouche, founder and CEO of Nimble. "This is a critical step as we scale manufacturing and R&D for our superhumanoid mobile-manipulator robots to meet the growing demand for faster, more cost-effective logistics."
"Nimble’s adoption of Onshape and Arena underscores a notable trend in the industry where leaders are replacing file-based tools with connected, cloud-native platforms,” says David Katzman, general manager of Onshape and Arena, PTC. “Onshape and Arena are key enablers of this change, allowing teams to improve workflows, increase agility, and scale efficiently."
