PTC Unveils Onshape's Next-Generation Model-Based Definition Capabilities with Aura Aero at Paris Air Show |
| [12-June-2025] |
BOSTON, June 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- PTC (NASDAQ: PTC) today announced model-based definition (MBD) capabilities within its Onshape® computer-aided design (CAD) and product data management (PDM) platform. MBD in Onshape is the first MBD offering within a cloud-native CAD and PDM solution and enables engineering teams to create a complete digital definition of a product by embedding all common product manufacturing information (PMI) directly into the 3D CAD model, including dimensions, tolerances, annotations, surface finishes, material specifications, and more. Cloud-native MBD in Onshape is currently in an early visibility program with select customers and is expected to be generally available in late 2025.
PTC will demonstrate cloud-native MBD in Onshape with Aura Aero, a leader in sustainable aviation, at Aura Aero's display at Zone B4 at the Paris Air Show, from June 16-19. "Even with the widespread adoption of 3D CAD, most manufacturing teams still rely on 2D drawings to communicate critical dimensions, tolerances, and annotations. This disconnect often leads to miscommunication and delays," said David Katzman, General Manager of Onshape and Arena, PTC. "Our new MBD capabilities remove the need to interpret 2D drawings by embedding PMI directly into the 3D model. This will enable teams to work faster, with greater clarity and fewer errors, while allowing a full digital end-to-end process. And because Onshape is cloud-native, this information is instantly accessible to everyone who needs it, from any device and any location. It's a major step forward in making MBD practical and scalable for real-world use." "With cloud-native capabilities in Onshape, PTC is delivering on what the concept of MBD has always promised – clear, accessible manufacturing intent embedded directly into the 3D model," said Marc Germain, Chief Digital Officer at Aura Aero. "This is the next generation of MBD, and it's transforming how we design, collaborate, and accelerate the path from concept to production. Thanks to these features, we now can certify our aircraft 100% digitally." For more information on cloud-native MBD in Onshape, please visit: Model-Based Definition (MBD) in 3D CAD. In addition to demonstrating cloud-native MBD in Onshape with Aura Aero at Zone B4, PTC will demonstrate the newest version of its Creo computer-aided design solution and its agentic AI solutions for the intelligent product lifecycle at the PTC® chalet #395.
