About the Customer
Since 1978, Brooks has been a leading partner to the global semi-conductor manufacturing market, and, through product development and strategic business acquisitions, has expanded offerings to meet the needs of customers in the life sciences industry, analytical and research markets and clean energy markets.
Headquartered in Chelmsford, MA with direct operations in North America, Europe and Asia, Brooks is a global provider of automation and cryogenic solutions for multiple markets including semiconductor manufacturing and the life sciences.
Project Overview
Brooks, a leading provider of automation and cryogenic solutions for the semiconductor and life sciences industries, set out to modernize its engineering and data management processes. The project involved implementing Oracle Agile PLM and integrating it with PTC, SOLIDWORKS, Autodesk Inventor, and Altium Designer. This ensured consistent CAD data management, smoother collaboration across engineering domains, and an efficient migration from the previous PDM system.
Due to XPLM integration solutions all CAD data is now in one system and we can easily share CAD data and engineering resources worldwide.
Solution
XPLM implemented an integration between Oracle Agile PLM and multiple CAD tools, including PTC, SOLIDWORKS, Autodesk Inventor, and Altium Designer. The solution enabled centralized CAD data management, consistent processes across engineering teams, and efficient data migration from the previous system. Comprehensive training and support ensured a smooth rollout and empowered Brooks to manage and maintain the solution independently.
Benefits
- Standardized process for managing CAD assemblies across all sites
- Increased efficiency and reduced costs through automation and streamlined workflows
- Improved usability and smoother daily operations for engineering teams
