Resource Management

Managing resource information - data on assets such as machine tools, fixtures, robots, welding guns and process templates – can be challenging, especially if you have a wide variety of these components. Often this information is fragmented across multiple locations, may be non-graphical , and cannot be accessed by applications that need it.

Lack of easy access to this information often leads to wasteful duplication, lack of re-use and reduced standardization.

The Resource Manager provides a library for a wide range of manufacturing resource data, from machine tools, fixture libraries, cutting tools and gages, robots, welding guns and manufacturing process templates. The system comes with a default classification structure, which can be redefined. An inbuilt parametric search capability allows easy retrieval of resource data and associated 3 D models.

The Resource Manager is an application based on and tightly integrated with the Teamcenter® data management platform. This allows data to be retrieved from the Resource Manager and used directly within Teamcenter Manufacturing and NX CAM.

NX Advantages:

  • Saves time looking for resource data by providing fast, automated access via a standard resource library.
  • Accessible from key manufacturing applications such as NX CAM or other popular CAD/CAM packages .
  • Leverages 3D product data to support faster and robust part manufacturing planning .
  • Enables better re-use of tooling and fixtures.
  • Provides a parametric search engine to easily search and retrieve data .
  • Captures and classifies best practices for re-use in later jobs .
  • Provides an integrated 3D viewer which verifies that the right resources are being retrieved .
