Trützschler, a textile machinery manufacturer, is adopting CONTACT Software’s CIM Database Cloud as part of its OneTrützschler digitalization initiative.
The company will use the “Innovate” edition of the cloud-based product lifecycle management system to create a central source of product data and improve collaboration in development. The SaaS solution provides scalability, data security and reduced IT requirements while staying up to date.
Trützschler plans to use the new PLM system to centralize product-related information and support future digitalization projects. The system will integrate with third-party tools, including the SOLIDWORKS MCAD system and the ERP solutions PSI and Microsoft Dynamics AX, through open interfaces.
In addition to central document and product data management, CIM Database Cloud offers extensive features for variant and project management as well as the cross-site coordination of tasks and processes. The 3D cockpit enables developers to intuitively collaborate on 3D models, while the xBOM Manager simplifies the synchronization of bills of materials.
Founded in 1888, Trützschler Group SE from Mönchengladbach, Germany, has become one of the world’s leading manufacturers of machinery and equipment for processing natural and chemical fibers. The family-owned company operates in three business areas – Spinning, Nonwovens, and Card Clothing – and maintains nine development and production sites in Germany, China, India, the USA, and Brazil.
