Altium-PLM Integration
Altium Designer integration with PLM maximizes PCB design
Intelligent management of PCB design data is a strategic issue. The Teamcenter® integration for Altium Designer increases productivity and saves time by capturing, managing, finding, and re-using the right design data no matter where it’s located. Providing intuitive access to a full range of product lifecycle management (PLM) functionality it enables you to access, manage and archive PCB data in a single secure location which helps optimize your design through manufacturing processes.
The Teamcenter integration for Altium Designer supports the ability to open and save native design files, collaborate within and across engineering domains, generate visualization files, share fabrication and assembly data with suppliers, and create complete product bill-of-material. When your PCB design processes are brought under Teamcenter control, they can be incorporated into structured workflows and effective change management processes so you can quickly identify, access and manage the creation, modification, and release of your most critical electronics data.

Access up-to-date product information quickly and easily
Teamcenter integration provides intuitive access to product and process data that enables you to work in a collaborative design environment. With Teamcenter software’s Active Workspace, secure access controls and single source of data and process information you have easy access a full range of product lifecycle management (PLM) capabilities that will further optimize your design-through-manufacturing processes.
Automated workflow processes, including design release and change
Consistently meeting product delivery and quality targets requires structured workflows and change processes across the enterprise. Leveraging Siemens PLM Software’s best-practices and AdvantEdge methodology, you can create workflows to initiate, execute, review, and approve product changes or new part requests, and as part of these structured processes you can automatically route the appropriate notifications. Structured workflows, issue tracking and coordinated change management processes enable you to meet delivery targets and ensure total product quality.
ECAD-MCAD co-design collaboration as products evolve
To keep design data in sync across domains Teamcenter supports an ECAD/MCAD co-design environment which enables the cross-domain collaboration. Using the Incremental Data eXchange format (IDX or EDMD) managed in Teamcenter, your designers can share and exchange design information during the evolution of a design. As part of the co-design process, you can pass incremental data, accept or reject changes, and incorporate change notes or comments into the information being shared.
Manufacturing validation and release to manufacturing
To ensure designs are ready for a smooth transition into manufacturing, Teamcenter supports visualization and Bill-of-Materials (BOM) management tools that enable you to view, cross-probe, and analyze PCB data for fabrication, assembly, and test related issues. The mark-up features create a valuable record of the evolution of the design. The BOM compare and grading capabilities ensure the quality and completeness of data submitted to manufacturing, which is especially useful when validating and communicating changes to manufacturing.
Preconfigured PDM to get into production cost-effectively, then grow to PLM
Teamcenter supports flexible deployment options to accommodate a broad spectrum of business needs. With proven scalability, you can expand the value of your Teamcenter implementation by taking advantage of a comprehensive portfolio of applications. Teamcenter Rapid Start provides a preconfigured PDM deployment option that manages design data and everyday tasks and processes, providing an ideal entry point into the Teamcenter product line for small and medium-sized business wanting a growth path to PLM.</>
