PTC Modeler

What is PTC Modeler?

PTC Modeler (formerly Windchill Modeler) helps your systems, software, and product line engineers create consistent, high-quality models to communicate requirements, identify key functions, consider design alternatives, and make good trade-off decisions. By guiding engineers with appropriate industry standards (including UML, SysML 1, SysML 2, and UAF) and automating repetitive tasks, PTC Modeler reduces development time, effort, and cost. It also simplifies the development process and improves product quality by helping to find potential design problems much earlier.

What are the benefits of PTC Modeler?

PTC Modeler helps to reduce time and effort in designing products, systems, and software by guiding users through industry-standard diagrams and automating repetitive tasks. When combined with PTC Asset Library, it extends capabilities to modular design, allowing for modeling of system of systems (SoS), component-based development (CBD), and service-oriented architecture (SOA) solutions.

Improve product quality, innovation, and performance

Define, analyze, and optimize system and software architectures with graphical, intuitive modeling and simulation. Identify and correct design issues earlier in the development cycle.

Increase efficiency and reduce costs

Streamline development processes with multiuser, concurrent access to shared, centralized models stored securely in a database. Manage design reuse and variability with product line engineering. Generate and reverse executable code directly from software models.

Improve communication and collaboration

Connect product engineering disciplines and improve collaboration between systems, software, electrical, and mechanical engineers. Increase stakeholder visibility and understanding of system and software designs.

Manage end-to-end traceability

Capture and manage end-to-end design traceability throughout the system and software development lifecycle from requirements to functional/logical architecture modeling to system simulation. PTC Modeler also integrates with Windchill PLM and the engineering digital thread using OSLC technology.

Based on industry standards

Create models in compliance with industry standards such as UML, SysML 1, SysML 2, and UAF.

Features and capabilities of PTC Modeler

Model-based system design

PTC Modeler uses digital models to enable the visualization, simulation, and analysis of a system and its components.

Model-based software design

Helps to model the software to verify requirements, ensuring the code will run on the product.

Review, analysis, and simulation

PTC Modeler enables users to review to evaluate and analyze digital models. Simulation then allows them to test these systems for optimal performance.

Configuration management

Enables users and stakeholders to track and control changes of system models throughout their lifecycle.

Product line engineering

Variant management of different product components helps to maximize reuse and reduces cost, while helping teams develop products faster.

Multi-user collaboration

Multiple users across different teams and functions can work simultaneously within PTC Modeler to enhance communication and efficiency. All model changes are automatically stored in a secure, industry standard database.

End-to-end traceability

Requirements traceability is simplified through model-based systems engineering. This helps teams to visualize the relationships between requirements as they are tested and validated, and make changes as needed in real time.

UML, SysML, and UAF solution

The modeling languages UML and SysML are the basis of model-based systems engineering and support the visualization of the design and build process of complex products. UAF is an architecture framework that helps in building these models.

Enhance your Modeler investment with Asset Library & Process Director

Make asset publication, management, and reuse easy with asset library

Asset Library enables a system of systems approach to model-based systems engineering (MBSE) that allows you to design subsystems in separate models and link them together into higher-level system models without duplicating data, so you can design the same way you build systems.

Reduce authoring and maintenance time by 20-30% with process director

Process Director is a process definition and deployment solution aimed at providing an efficient approach to the challenge of defining organizational processes and aiding project managers to be more productive. Process quality improvement is supported through easy online maintenance that can be delivered to new and existing projects.
