Integrate 2D supplier data and legacy images
Stheno/Pro's new colour raster module, as well as AutoCAD 2007 DWG support, make it even easier to integrate 2D supplier data and legacy images into the Pro/Engineer PLM environment
That's the message CAD Schroer and its partners are sending out loud and clear to all Pro/Engineer users.
"We talk to a lot of customers and prospects who are ready to go 3D, but worry about continued use of existing designs, and being able to integrate AutoCAD drawings from customers or suppliers into the Pro/E-centric PLM process," says Robert Arnone, President of Enser Corp., a longstanding Engineering solutions provider and PTC Gold Authorized Reseller with offices in New Jersey, North Carolina and Florida.
"To have a solution which benchmarks extremely well against AutoCAD, handles legacy in raster format, and runs as a Pro/E plug-in is ideal," agrees Monty Clark, President and CEO of Redbolt, a Florida-based provider of knowledge-based solutions for the Engineering and IT sectors.
The sentiment is echoed by TJ Dial, Lead Business Development Manager at Sequoia Etc of Missouri, a member of PTC's Platinum Reseller program, with offices in Dallas, Kansas City, St Louis, Denver, Tulsa, and Austin; and Garry Hoffman, Vice President of Sales of 3 HTI, LLC, one of PTC's leading platinum level resellers and full-service Engineering software sales, support and consultancy organisation with offices throughout the East Coast.
"PTC and CSG have enjoyed a very successful, close and collaborative partnership for many years now," says Gearoid Smyth, Head of Global Marketing Programs at PTC, "and Stheno/pro is testament to this relationship, offering best in class 2D and legacy maintenance, which means new and existing Pro/Engineer customers can easily transfer valuable 2D drawings into their 3D world".
Stheno/pro replaces the need for a 3-tier (Pro/E - 2D - paper) approach, working hand-in-glove with Pro/DETAIL, offering seamless, bi-directional data exchange, and the incorporation, editing and maintenance of raster data.
It allows for the quick and easy creation of things like 2D concepts, layouts and tender designs, as well as 2D adaptations of Pro/DETAIL sheets for product designs, technical manuals, and installation designs.
"I see real benefits of mixed CAD drafting in integrated mode, and Stheno/pro's SMART Edit capabilities can make life a lot simpler when creating 2D drawings".
"The smooth interface between Pro/Engineer, Stheno/pro and Windchill should make this very attractive for hard-core Pro/E users," adds Mike Wahner, Project Manager at Enser.
The new VARs will kick off the relationship with a special value offer for new customers, which packages Pro/Engineer Foundation with Stheno/pro Advanced at an extremely attractive price.
