CIMCO Manufacturing Data Management

MDM IS THE PROFESSIONAL MANAGEMENT TOOL
FOR ORGANIZING AND MAKING PRODUCTION DOCUMENTS AVAILABLE

MDM can be fully customized to work with your existing setup to enable paperless shopfloor operation. Restrict file access for users and machines, transfer files to and from machines, set up status-driven workflows, generate reports and easily backup or restore documents with the built-in versioning system. It is the central hub that gathers all your production documents and provides easy access to the applications you utilize the most. It integrates with your existing application such as editors, DNC, and MDC systems, as well as CAD/CAM systems from leading vendors.

WORKING WITH CIMCO MDM

CIMCO MDM is a structuring production data in CIMCO MDM works somewhat similar to how files are structured in e.g.

Microsoft Windows® with folders containing sub-folders (referred to as Levels in MDM). However, MDM can be configured to secure what files can be added to specific folders and what users have permission to view, modify, approve or delete these folders and files. This helps enforce the folder structure and ensures that files are always placed in the correct folders.

By default, the root folders in your structure are configured as Project folders and given a project name as they are added. Project folders can then be configured so only Part folders can be added to them. Part folders can further be configured so only CAD files can be added to them and CAM files below the CAD files, etc. You can even configure what additional information MDM should require when a new Project or Part folder is created. In this way MDM provides a highly flexible way to configure and enforce your information structure.

Standalone or Integrated

CIMCO MDM consists of a client and a server application. For a minimal setup the MDM client and server can be installed and run on the same standard Windows PC. However, for a large setup the server application can be installed separately on its own dedicated server and have an unlimited number of networked MDM clients access the server data. So, whether you are a small shop with one or two machines or a large manufacturer with hundreds of machines across multiple sites, MDM can scale to meet your requirements.

MDM can be integrated with a company’s existing applications such ERP, MRP or any other file or database system.

MDM can also take advantage of CIMCO software products such as DNC-Max, MDC and Edit. We call this the multiplier effect.
