NEW TECHNOLOGY-Simple migration Teamcenter to Aras
Seems like every day Aras get calls from Teamcenter users who are tired of dealing with the limitations & complexity of the Teamcenter environment and are longing for the freedom and flexibility Aras provides. If that sounds familiar, fear not. Migrating from Teamcenter to Aras is not as complicated as you might think.
Watch this short video and find out how one Nidec Motor Corporation migrated 215,000 TC item masters representing 290,000 total item revisions and 320,000 files in just 134 days. And they did it with zero, yes zero, differences.
And if you want to know more, check out this on-demand webcast to learn about migrating your Teamcenter environment.

SUCCESS STORY-Sawrey solve complex/irregular models
Sawrey Consulting Engineers is a growing structural engineering consultancy with a focus on earthquake engineering, structural and seismic design, the assessment and seismic retrofit of buildings, and building parts and components.
Read about how Sawrey Consulting Engineers, together with Matrix Applied Computing, used Bentley Staad.Pro to overcome the challenge of modeling and analysing a complex and irregular building structure.

SUCCESS STORY-Springfree use FEA to optimise component
Springfree Trampolines design and manufacture a unique type of trampoline that doesn't require traditional metal springs. They needed to determine the stresses on one element of their unique design during operation and the effect of any design changes on their load bearing capacity.
Read how Springfree Trampolines and Matrix used FEA modelling to test, analyse and ultimately optimise a key component of the unique design.
