Advanced Arena PLM Connector

Bi-Directional Connection Between Engineering and Enterprise

Bring Products to Market Faster

Bi-directional integration between OrCAD and Arena PLM connects engineering, manufacturing, and procurement environments together to provide real-time visibility into critical data sources. This enables groups to collaborate across the organization early in the design process, reduces the potential for errors and miscommunication, and keeps your product on-time and on-budget.

Key Benefits

  • Reduce Time to Market
  • Access Critical Business Information During Design
  • Make Informed Part Decisions
  • Streamline Part Procurement and Product Development

Key Features

See how Advanced Arena Integration can benefit your design flow

Native Integration

Access the information you need from Arena PLM directly within your OrCAD environment. Native integration accelerates the design process and mitigates risk by connecting product development environments.

Closed Loop NPI

Automatically generate an Arena PLM part number and status to new parts introduced in the PCB design. This ensures part qualification occurs upfront during the new part introduction process, keeping part procurement and production on-schedule.

Zero Touch BOM

Eliminate manual BOM modification and automatically output a fully formatted, complete BOM containing the information needed for part procurement and manufacturing directly from OrCAD. Efficiently communicate this data and trigger the next steps in the design process with a single-click upload to Arena PLM and centralized stakeholder access.

Complete Component Data

Empower engineering to make intelligent design decisions upfront with access to critical business-level component data directly inside OrCAD. In addition to electrical requirements, the Advanced Arena PLM Integration let’s designers consider real-time lifecycle, stock, and pricing information to reduce late-stage design changes and guarantee timely part procurement.

Where Used

Easily identify the effect of part changes across various products without leaving the OrCAD environment. This allows engineers to synchronize their approved manufacturer/vendor lists, locate and replace obsolete components, and guarantee only approved and available parts are used within their designs.
