Human workflow concerns
Will they use the correct revision?
Are all needed & approved documents
provided in the process?
What happens with altered CNC
programs?
How will changes from production be
processed and archived?
Do we have documentation and
complete data for product liability?

The Production Solution
is FIT4TEAMCENTER
Factory Integrating Tool is the central
communication tool in the production area
FIT4TEAMCENTER integrates directly, without
any redundant data management with the

The FIT4Teamcenter Tools
 FIT4Teamcenter DNC
–
Integrated Teamcenter server based application with services for machine and
worker interface connection. Configuration of connection, data down- and upload
and viewing tools/possibilities. Data search routines for different TC item types
(part item, MENC machining item, etc.)
 FIT4Teamcenter Service Tools
–
–
–
Configurable CNC part data interface for automatic import of legacy data (CNC
programs, tooling sheets, etc.) into Teamcenter
CAM Integrator to integrate CAM systems in Teamcenter over CNC part data
interface
Integration of different comparison programs for CNC data into Teamcenter Portal
 FIT4Teamcenter HI (Human Interface)
–
Browser based easy to use worker interface for direct information access to
Teamcenter, down and upload of released CNC data and viewing of additional
CNC part information's like drawings, JT’s, tooling sheets, ShopDocs, CNC
programs, tool data, etc.
 FIT4Teamcenter MI (Machine Interface)
–
Connection interface to CNC control with parameters and special function for
different protocols for serial, Ethernet or direct connect. Supports all
manufacturers CNC controls and protocols
