CIDEON Interfaces

Easily connect data and systems.

CIDEON Interfaces for Autodesk, EPLAN, PRO.FILE and SAP

CIDEON interface solutions access ERP, PLM, PDM and CAD systems and prepare data in a transparent way. For example, CAD or ECAD data can be merged with SAP or Vault. Automatically synchronizing the information and backing it up centrally eliminates duplicates and incorrect entries, and speeds up and simplifies data tasks.

Seamlessly Connect CAD, PDM/PLM and ERP Systems

An interface between CAD and PDM/PLM systems enables you to seamlessly manage assemblies, components and drawings including dependent documents. Your CAD users can work in their familiar environment and load related original files directly for display or editing via the integrated PDM/PLM menu.

If you integrate your PDM system with your ERP system, you can also assign materials to the design documents and automatically derive bills of materials. This always guarantees uniform data structures for all persons involved in the development.
