• Molding machines
• Trim and Form machines
• Singulation machines
Introduction Besi (4)

– Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 4.0
• Top down design (Layout, skeletons, etc)
• Module based configured machines
– Intralink 9.1
• Datamanagement

One Data Management environment
Windchill platform
Supporting remote sites(Asia)
Sending data to Matrix(PLM)
Working with Intralink 9.1 should be the
same as with Intralink 3.4
One Data Management
environment
• Migrating two Intralink 3.4 databases to 9.1
– Molding and Trim & Form
• Challenges
– More then 500 GB of Pro/ENGINEER data
– More then 10.000 mapping and reordering of
subfolders
– Different Revision schemes(1,2,..,A,B,..)
– More then 6000 duplicates
Managing Duplicates
• What is a duplicate ?
– Same Object exists in both databases
– Mostly Library components (bolts,nuts,etc)
• How are duplicates handled ?
– Mass rename (quick solution)
– PTC’s Duplicate Object Manager
How did Fico handle duplicates?
PTC’s Duplicate Object Manager
• Tool to merge duplicates(Equal or
Unequal)
• DOM equality criteria
– Revisions and Criteria are the same
– Dependencies are the same
– Family Tables
• DOM unequality criteria
– If equality criteria is not met (ex. Extra Instance of a
family table, more versions (A.2,B.1, etc)
PTC’s Duplicate Object Manager
Example
Customizing Workflows
• What is a Promotion Request workflow ?
• Why do we need more functionality ?
• Export Released data to xml format for
Matrix Tool
• What does the Matrix Tool do ?
• Customized Promotion Request
– Adding extra steps
– Written in Java (Windchill J2EE complaint)
Working with Asia
• Fico Tooling is moved here
• Performance issues over a WAN
• Replication solution
– Standard Windchill technology
– Remote File server
– Replicates Pro/E data to and back
• WAN optimizer (Riverbed)
Replication setup
• Based on rules
– Types(ex. Documents, Pro/ENGINEER files)
– Version (ex. Latest, all,etc)
• Scheduling replication
• How is the data produced on a replica
send back ?
Performance results Replica
• 15 times faster with replication
• Big improvements with browsing in
folders/workspaces
Results
• Succesful migration
– Single Intralink 9.1 environment
– All duplicated were merged
– Very good adoption by Fico (custom training)
• Customizations implemented
– Behaviour of Intralink 9.1 is very like the old Intralink
3.4
– Sending the right info at the right time to Matrix
• Optimal performance for Asia
Live Demo Workflow
• How is custom workflow implemented ?
Thank you for your attention !
