Although networking and sharing experiences will play an important role at the 3D PDF Customer Experience Day, there will be no shortage of information. Customers and experts from PROSTEP will explain to participants how 3D PDF technology can be used in different areas of application – from the offer phase to the provision of technical data packages for manufacturing and assembly through to the creation of spare parts catalogs in the service department – and the savings that can be achieved by automating the preparation and provision of information.

Among other things, André Hieke from Siemens will report on how Siemens Large Drives Applications (LDA) is using 3D PDF to provide offer documents for customer-specific configurations of large electric motors and converters almost at the touch of a button. Christian Thomas from Atotech Deutschland GmbH, a manufacturer of electroplating systems, will explain to participants the advantages of the technology when it comes to the automatic preparation and provision of spare parts catalogs. And Patrick Stockden from MEYER WERFT will describe how the shipbuilder intends to optimize production processes by dispensing with paper drawings.

Leading 3D PDF experts such as Ulrich Isermeyer from Adobe Systems and Andreas Vogel from theorie3.De will provide participants with an overview of the advantages of 3D PDF technology, the wide range of possible application areas it offers and the new functions, e.g. for publishing information in the Internet. You will also gain insight into the progress being made with regards to ISO standardization, which makes the PDF standard an even more versatile tool, e.g. for the long-term archiving of product data.
