wind chill so in product development

wind chill so in product development there are a

there are a

there are a number of different systems that you use

number of different systems that you use

number of different systems that you use in order to create and manufacture and

in order to create and manufacture and

in order to create and manufacture and deliver your products

deliver your products

deliver your products four of the main ones from the product

four of the main ones from the product

four of the main ones from the product development side

development side

development side are your cad tools such as creo

are your cad tools such as creo

are your cad tools such as creo parametric

parametric

parametric you have all that data and then you're

you have all that data and then you're

you have all that data and then you're going to manage it in a plm

going to manage it in a plm

going to manage it in a plm or product lifecycle management system

or product lifecycle management system

or product lifecycle management system and that's what windchill is

and that's what windchill is

and that's what windchill is and a couple other systems that connect

so what is this thing called windshield

so what is this thing called windshield well basically it is

well basically it is

well basically it is ptc's offering for product lifecycle

ptc's offering for product lifecycle

ptc's offering for product lifecycle management and windshield itself is

management and windshield itself is

management and windshield itself is really

really

really a platform or an architecture

a platform or an architecture

a platform or an architecture for these various different solutions

for these various different solutions

for these various different solutions windchill is web-based

windchill is web-based

windchill is web-based that means that you are going to access

that means that you are going to access

that means that you are going to access it from

it from

it from an internet browser whether you're using

an internet browser whether you're using

an internet browser whether you're using firefox or

firefox or

firefox or you're using chrome whatever you're

you're using chrome whatever you're

you're using chrome whatever you're going to access it through a web browser

going to access it through a web browser

going to access it through a web browser that is why creole parametric has a web

that is why creole parametric has a web

that is why creole parametric has a web browser built

browser built

browser built into it so you can access your plm

into it so you can access your plm

into it so you can access your plm system

system

system right from within your cad tool also it

right from within your cad tool also it

right from within your cad tool also it is

is highly configurable and customizable so

highly configurable and customizable so

highly configurable and customizable so you have windchill the way it looks

you have windchill the way it looks

you have windchill the way it looks out of the box with ptc's

out of the box with ptc's

out of the box with ptc's recommendations they said that you only

recommendations they said that you only

recommendations they said that you only do about

do about

do about five percent of customization and

five percent of customization and

five percent of customization and fifteen percent

fifteen percent

fifteen percent of configuration otherwise you should be

of configuration otherwise you should be

of configuration otherwise you should be using the majority of

using the majority of

using the majority of out of the box functionality

out of the box functionality

out of the box functionality there are a number of different modules

there are a number of different modules

there are a number of different modules to windchill and some of the main ones
