Windchill MPMLink Overview
Windchill MPMLink is the central repository and the design environment for manufacturing data management in Windchill.To access and configure the Manufacturing data use MPMLink browsers.
Windchill MPMLink supports manufacturing process management (MPM) processes using an integral solution where product, process, and resource data are managed in a single system – without the need for data duplication. As a result, there is concurrent and collaborative development of product designs and manufacturing processes, all supported by common Windchill services, such as change management, configuration, life cycle and access control. This concurrent and collaborative work environment provides the following benefits to design and manufacturing engineers:
Constantly reconcile different professional perspectives
Proactively validate the manufacturability of product designs, and reduce errors between engineering and production.
