Efficient Data Management – Tailored to your Processes
Do you entrust your design data to Autodesk Vault? A good and secure basis. With the M+M PDM Booster, you can expand your data management with a variety of practical functions.
Benefit from a simple user interface and the option of structuring your data according to your company standards. Parts lists are generated and checked – the ERP system is connected and PLM is integrated.
Regularly required tasks are completed automatically by so-called jobs. The goal: efficient, error-free work – through higher parts reuse, automation and less manual interaction.
The M+M PDM Booster Consists of Various Modules
The Individual Modules of the PDM Booster Including Product Description:
M+M PDM Booster Module: Manage
Your Metadata – the Most Important Part
With the M+M PDM Booster Manage module, you retain control over your metadata - because metadata is the essence of successful data management. Highly standardized input masks in the storage dialog as well as workflows and automatisms systematize the handling of "properties", the carriers of meta information. "Manage" ensures structure: each file is provided with metadata and stored in the vault in a structured manner.
M+M PDM Booster Module: Job Engine
PDF after Release? E-mail on Status Change?
The Job Engine module performs recurring tasks automatically. A simple example: Whenever you release a drawing, a PDF is automatically generated. Or a check routine is triggered. Or an e-mail is sent to a supervisor. The JobEngine works securely and transparently. It writes a detailed log file and can be monitored and administered easily and effectively. The automation of processes not only saves time, but also helps to avoid costly errors – e.g. when transferring parts lists.
M+M PDM Booster Module: Managed Events
The module offers the possibility to optimize and automate your PDM processes. Managed Events is a flexible and scalable solution for working with Vault Events. Many steps that would otherwise be performed manually by the Vault user can now be carried out automatically.
Typical use cases are
Automatic synchronization of properties on status change
Filling in properties when the status changes
Differentiated addition of jobs to the Vault job queue
Sending e-mails when there are new revisions
The option of carrying out individual validations before a release allows incorrect entries to be prevented effectively and at an early stage in the process.
M+M PDM Booster Module: Exchange
Interface Redefined: Efficient, Secure, Flexible
We have redefined the interface with the option of a general, freely configurable and bidirectional link between your data management and your ERP system, i.e. between design and calculation. The Exchange module exchanges database information in both directions in the background on a time or event-controlled basis. This means you can find information on items, parts lists or documents where you need it – at any time.
M+M PDM Booster Module: Classification
Structures Provide Orientation
The ability to structure and classify your data according to your company standards creates great advantages. You can find your data quickly and easily. Classification features include name and number systems, but also dimensions, material or other physical properties – just as your product requires. The Classification module creates order through structure.
M+M PDM Booster Module: F360M-Connector
In PLM Processes Integrated
PLM as the entirety of structured workflows puts the process at the center. With Fusion 360 Manage, M+M relies on the scalable and immediately deployable cloud product from Autodesk. But at some point, product-centered processes need access to the hard product data in PDM – and this is exactly what the F360M-Connector module ensures: the connection of the process world with the design data.
M+M PDM Booster Module: EPL Vault
Seamless Management of EPLAN Projects in Vault
M+M EPL Vault is seamlessly integrated into the EPLAN user interface, and the frequently used functions can be accessed directly from EPLAN. The EPLAN project properties are visible in Vault and connected bidirectionally, so that they always match and can be maintained in both systems.
The TOP functions:
Managing EPLAN projects in Autodesk Vault
Automatic creation of the project PDF
Storage of the parts list in Vault
Mechatronic parts list
Central configuration via Autodesk Vault
M+M PDM Booster Module: Migration Suite
Professional Tool for Migrating and Editing Inventor and AutoCAD Files
Reference repair
Editing file properties
Style update
Exchange of title blocks
Import to Vault even with incomplete references
Transfer of datasets from legacy EDM/PDM systems or the file system
