Synergis Software Releases Enhanced Integration with SolidWorks for Adept Engineering Document Management Software
Adept engineering document management now includes an enhanced integration with SolidWorks, which gives CAD users transparent access to Adept's powerful document management operations from inside the 3D CAD software application.
An Adept Task Pane lets users search for files by metadata or an Explorer-like browser, then drag and drop the files into the SolidWorks graphics window. The Adept Task Pane also allows users to sign in/sign out, open, insert, copy and replace components; determine the status (In/Out/On Hold) of parts, assemblies, drawings and configurations; view thumbnail and parent-child relationship (references) for any selected file; and view any file's associated metadata using Adept's Library Cards.
Quakertown, PA (PRWEB) May 26, 2009 -- Synergis Software, a SolidWorks Gold Certified Partner and the creator of Adept engineering document management and workflow software, today announced the availability of Adept PDM 8.1, which features a dramatically enhanced integration with SolidWorks 3D CAD design software.
Adept PDM 8.1 features a deeper integration with SolidWorks 3D CAD design software.
Adept's integration with SolidWorks greatly improves the CAD user experience by including critical document management operations inside the 3D CAD application. The integration provides an Adept Task Pane that lets users search for files by metadata or an Explorer-like browser, then drag and drop the files into the SolidWorks graphics window. It also enables users to sign in/sign out, open, insert, copy and replace components; determine the status (In/Out/On Hold) of parts, assemblies, drawings and configurations; view thumbnail and parent-child relationship (references) for any selected file; and view any file's associated metadata using Adept's Library Cards. These powerful capabilities are available without having to leave SolidWorks.
Adept PDM 8.1 also features an Adept relationship tree -- similar in look and feel to SolidWorks' FeatureManager design tree -- with icons that show the status of a file; tool tips that display the file name, status, Library or owner; and check boxes to easily select files for sign out.
"Adept's new SolidWorks integration will significantly reduce our engineering time," stated Mike Sizemore, PDM Administrator/SolidWorks CSWP, P&H Mining Equipment, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. "The ability to work almost entirely within SolidWorks keeps our designers focused on completing engineering activities and staying on schedule."
According to Sizemore, the newly designed integration also delivers powerful capabilities while making it easier for CAD users to learn and adopt document management best practices. "Adept's search and linking capabilities are first class. And its task pane design makes it very easy to learn. We look forward to a long relationship with Synergis and Adept."
