Do any of the following statements sound familiar?
- Implementing PMI from the bottom up, i.e., starting in design or engineering, is destined to fail.
- PMI is often positioned as a way to eliminate drawings, but downstream consumers often resist the change or lack the tools required to go paperless.
- Drafting often doubles design timelines.
- Manual checking of GD&T creates additional change loops.
- Gaining support for a PMI strategy that meets a company’s specific requirements and generates an appropriate ROI can be a complex process.
Product Manufacturing Information (PMI) is the technology that associates Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) and annotations directly to 3D models and has been available for over 20 years. During this time, it has evolved from propriety data used within a single solution provider’s tools to a STEP standard with cross-solution interoperability. This webinar will cover the basics of what PMI is, how it fits into a comprehensive PLM strategy, some common PMI use cases, and describe a project that leverages PMI as part of a digital transformation or product development process improvement program.
