The Proficy + PTC Windchill Solution provides a PLM-MES connection that can manage a closed loop of product information between engineering, manufacturing and production.
"Product structures that were defined by engineering can now accurately become the basis for manufacturing routings and manufacturing's bill of materials, which are then used to manage shop floor activity," said Jim Walsh, general manager, GE Intelligent Platforms. "Shop floor information such as the as-built bill of materials and non-conformance can then automatically be shared back with the PLM system to complete the closed loop."
