At PTC, our business is product development, and our objective is to provide customers with

the best Product Lifeccle Management (PLM) and Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solutions .

For more than two decades, PTC has delivered industr leading software solutions to enterprise and small

business customers spanning multiple industries.

Our ever-expanding product amilies and customer base are a testament to our commitment to product

development excellence.

Over the past several years, selling sotware services and solutions has dramatically changed. The promise

o innovation has been replaced with the demand or bottom-line inancial impact — what’s the cost, what’s thereturn, how soon, and how can you prove it ? Buyers o technology are increasingly looking to vendors to provide

credible ROI analysis — what PTC reers to as REAL IZED VALUE .

Realized value identiies the challenges customers have throughout product development, and documents how

PTC’s o erings positively impact their business. PTC provides the customer with not only product development

improvements, but also with t he ability to measure the value realized over time. Such realized value reinorces

that PTC has taken careul consideration to build value into its products and services with a deep understanding

o the customer’s business.2

In this booklet you will see how

PTC customers around the world

have beneted rom PTC’s products,

services , and training. Cost-

savings , revenue growth,

shorter time-to-market , reduced

production ccles, and increased

However, the inherent beneitso measuring realized value go

well beyond the numerical result.

Realized value provides a process

or the customer to quantiy

the enduring business beneits

and opto-electronics, has become a leading

integrated servi ce provider, incorporating

notebooks, servers, internet appliances,

Multi-site operations and more comprehensive

collaboration between business partners at

Arima created the need to re-engineer PLM

processes or data management part manage-

vides an excellent education or children in the

Baltimore, Maryland area. Calvert School also

provides accredited home schooling programs

and a customized, complete educational solu-

tion or partner schools, including curriculum,

Calvert School needed a web-based delivery

system to deliver up-to-date content in a

dynamic way to students. PTC Global Services

implemented Arbortext Edito r, Arbortext

Publishing Engine, and Arbortext Advanced

Print Publisher, and proposed a transormation

o XML content created in Arbortext Editor to

The name Carl Zeiss has become a byword

or pioneering perormance in camera lenses.

For more than 150 years, this technology

pacesetter has been going beyond the rontiers

o precision technology. Today, to ensure the

highest precision and reliabil ity, Carl Zeiss

uses inite element method tools to analyze

the strengths and deormations o their lenses

under mechanical and thermal loading.

Carl Zeiss wanted to study the behavior o

their achromatic lens elements, consisting o

glass with dierent thermal expansions and

extremely thin glued layers, when preloaded

by locking rings and placed under thermal

pressure. PTC Global Services developed

an analysis model o a clamped, achromatic

lens using Pro/ENGINEER Mechanica and

provided on-site consulting services or Carl

Zeiss employees.

“The outstanding, expert knowledge provided by PTC Global Services

has enabled us to perorm our own detailed, precise and on-going

element studies with Pro/ENGINEER Mechanica. This will allow us to

develop and deliver cine and camera lenses a notch above our current ones,

working even more precisely under extreme environmental conditions.”

Carl Zeiss Optronics GmbH, a member o the

Carl Zeiss Group, is a leading manuacturer

o optical systems, with a parti cular ocus on

high-precision and robust opto-electronic sys-

tems or observation and deense purposes.

Carl Zeiss Optronics includes structural analy-

sis and dynamic optimization very early in

the product development process to ensure

that the optical systems ulill the high stan-

dards regarding optical precision within a

rough environment. To meet the very tough

development schedule, PTC Global Services

was charged with the dynamic system analysis

o the complete periscope o the new German

Puma tank. PTC Global Services Consulting

built up the dynamic system model o the peri-

scope in Pro/ENGINEER Mechanica directly

on Carl Zeiss’s Pro/ENGINEER assembly data.

Shock and random response calculations were

perormed on this model and structural modii-

cations were proposed to the designers.

and the delivered simulation models, as well as the ongoing excellent

cooperation with our design team.”

P&S Tensioning System Ltd (St. Gallenkappel,

Switzerland) is known worldwide or its

SUPERBOLT® Multi Jackbolt Tensioners, which

are designed as direct replacements or hex nuts.

P&S Tensioning System wanted to demonst rate

the advantage o their tensioning system when

used in a crosshead bolted connection, where

the load is not introduced into the clamped

parts, but directly into the bolt.


•Determinedthepreciselocationof

the SUPERBOLT Tensioner is used

“At an international bolt application conerence, we learned how PTC

analyzed a similar bolted connection. We wanted to take advantage o

this unique knowledge or our own product and were ully satised with

the results obtained by the use o PTC’s Pro/ENGINEER Mechanica struc-

ture FEM code. It perormed exactly as we had observed in the eld.”

– t E C H N I C a l D I r E C t o r , P&S Tensioning System Lt d.

These connections are critical regarding

rupture. Until now, no analytical standards or

guidelines existed to analyze this type o bolt

connection. PTC Global Services Consulting

analyzed the existing crosshead connec-

tion and the alternative with the SUPERBOLT
