Best creo mentor i have ever had. The books by Dave are just amazing.

[@CADPLMGuy]

Thanks, Sourabh!

[@snehak4916]

I am glad I came across this it is very elaborating overview. I cannot thank you enough..

[@CADPLMGuy]

Thanks for watching!

[@lollystar3055]

Thats a great explanation and YES. I ENJOYED the video and explanation

[@CADPLMGuy]

Awesome, thank you!

[@ADARSHTHEKKEDATH]

Thanks for the information. I know most of the tools related to modeling in creo. Thi video made me an idea about what a PLM software can do in the product development environment.

[@Th3Whit3Stripes]

Awesome video, thank you very much for creating!

[@CADPLMGuy]

Thanks for your kind words!

[@hammonri]

Very useful! I can really see how this will leverage my knowledge and increase team productivity.

[@CADPLMGuy]

Once a team gets over a half dozen people, it really helps to be on a CAD data management system instead of network folders. Also if you are doing any kind of PLM processes, you need Windchill.

Excellent presentation, clear and very informative, thanks!

[@CADPLMGuy]

Glad it helped, Guillermo!

[@Kaiyoga2]

Very well explained, thank you.

[@CADPLMGuy]

What would the benefit be for an organisation to use windchill over for example enovia? E.g. where is the financial value? Time spent managing data? The cost of the software? Time savings?

[@CADPLMGuy]

This is a much bigger discussion than a KZbin video comment, but I will mention two points. (1) If you're using Creo, nothing manages Creo data better than Windchill. (2) Windchill is a fraction of the cost of Enovia and requires less infrastructure. If you're in the market for a PLM system and are benchmarking various solutions, feel free to reach out and I can connect you with additional resources that can help with your decision-making process.

[@chetanjoshisasane]

Nice Video. Good presentation skills. Do you have video which can provide Windchill architecture for PLM administrator?

[@CADPLMGuy]

I do not. Honestly that kind of content does not interest me. I have a couple videos on basic Windchill admin but the overwhelming majority of my videos are focused on the users.

[@chetanjoshisasane]

@@CADPLMGuy ok 👍🏼

[@oneofthesixbillion]

I came here from searching for info on Star Trek Impulse engines where you (Dave Martin) wrote an article showing how PTC mathcad can be used. The About the author info used words I'd never heard of like Creo Parametric which led me to PLM and PTC Windchill. I'm finding it interesting to understand how companies go about product design and management. Would you mind telling me how do people learn about these things? What education and/or college topics lead to PLM and the products/tools like PTC Creo and PTC Windchill?

[@CADPLMGuy]

Mechanical engineering is a big field that leads to product development careers, particularly on the physical (vs. software) side. While colleges often teach CAD like Creo Parametric to engineering students, most people don't learn Product Lifecycle Management until they get to workplaces that have it.

Thanks sir

[@matts9728]

Thanks Dave!

[@CADPLMGuy]

Thanks for watching!

[@kamleshkailasjoshi2620]

Helpfull sir

[@CADPLMGuy]

Thanks!

What is the difference between release and change management?

[@CADPLMGuy]

Release management deals with promoting and revising standard documents and CAD documents to control the lifecycle states and approval for use downstream (e.g., manufacturing, supply chain, etc.). Change management involves the use of Problem Reports, Change Requests, and Change Notices in a closed-loop system to control the implementation of changes to configuration controlled objects.

[@honestdudeguru]

Where are documents and change notices managed?

[@CADPLMGuy]

In the Windchill database just like any other objects.

[@enemy4all216]

awesome tool, but the bad thing is that it won't install on Windows 11 machine

[@CADPLMGuy]

That's too bad. Most people install Windchill on Windows Server machines.

[@bikashsharrf6468]

wow

[@CADPLMGuy]

I hope that's 'wow' in a good way!

[@bikashsharrf6468]

no dought u r just amazing 😊

[@grousebike3477]

2x and still slow

[@CADPLMGuy]

Don’t watch. No one is forcing you to.
