Product Data Management
for Standard, Professional & Manage
All formats and document types created and used in the CAD program are supported by the PDM system.
For example, components, assemblies,
SolidWorks Toolbox files are treated by GAIN Collaboration in the same way as library parts.
Bidirectional matching of file properties and copying of complex structures (drawings with external references) are standard functions.

The PDM SolidWorks interface
For equal information on both sides
GAIN Collaboration and SolidWorks are in constant exchange.
On the one hand, you can display information from the PDM system directly in the title block of a SolidWorks document.
Conversely, GAIN Collaboration takes properties from documents.
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 the BOM information from the CAD application and assigns it to the appropriate data sets. If you wish, you can add additional articles to these in GAIN Collaboration.
GAIN Collaboration 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
The GAIN Collaboration System supports you in copying and revising individual models or structures such as 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 the references available in SolidWorks 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 SolidWorks documents.
Interfaces: Benefits for all
