In Minerva, we want to support Medtronic’s initiative get more ventilators to the market. We are supporting the production of additional ventilators by providing our product documentation management software free of charge to manufacturers.

We have uploaded the design specifications for the Medtronic PB560 ventilator to our cloud-based Minerva PLM with CAD design specifications, provided by our partner Essig.

Our software application provides users to better manage the entire design- and production process and provides an overview on the vast amount of product documentation, including components and parts as well as collaboration tools to help assist manufacturers to access the ventilator design data. Lastly, it ensures that regulatory restrictions are being adhered to.

By providing our software free of charge, we enable manufacturers to understand the vast amount of documentation faster, manage the production process more efficient and thus helping them to produce more ventilators faster.
