PDM Inventor:
Clever drawing management with GAIN Collaboration
All formats and document types that arise and are used in Inventor are supported by the drawing management via this PDM interface.
For example, load analyses, parts from the design wizard, the piping and cabling modules, the rack generator, and iParts and iAssemblies.
Bidirectional matching of file properties and copying of complex structures (drawings with external references) are standard functions. Let us support you as a designer:

The PDM Inventor interface
For equal information from Autodesk Inventor and PDM
GAIN Collaboration and Autodesk Inventor are in constant exchange.
On the one hand, you can display information from the PDM system directly in the title block of an Autodesk Inventor document.
Conversely, GAIN Collaboration takes properties from the drawing document.
Drawing management with connection to your ERP
All the easier thanks to the integrated JoinServer
Via the PDM ERP interface integrated in GAIN Collaboration you can transfer parts lists and article master data to your ERP system.
GAIN Collaboration captures BOM information from Inventor and maps it to the appropriate records. If you wish, you can add additional articles to these in GAIN Collaboration.
PDM Inventor generates neutral formats at the desired process
Depending on the configuration, GAIN Collaboration generates neutral formats such as PDF automatically: Either in the work process automatically at check-in, at status change or – if required – via the JobServer.
GAIN Collaboration stores neutral formats next to the document for viewing or sending by e-mail.
Let GAIN Collaboration copy and revise conveniently
GAIN Collaboration System supports you in copying and revising individual models or structures. For example, assemblies or drawings with their references.
All referenced documents are displayed during copy operations. You can copy them as well.
Depending on the process selection, GAIN Collaboration additionally assigns new numbers to copied files and updates them in the file properties.
The revision is done numerically or alphabetically depending on the configuration.
GAIN Collaboration retains previous versions (in the case of revisions) for inspection.
Check references and their use
GAIN Collaboration captures existing references from Autodesk Inventor documents.
You can quickly access and view them and their uses at any time via additional indexes.
Helpful functions also support the daily handling of Autodesk Inventor documents.
