TeamViewer to Innovate Product Lifecycle Management Space with Siemens

TeamViewer has announced a new strategic partnership with Siemens Digital Industries Software to bring the power of TeamViewer’s enterprise AR platform Frontline to Siemens’
Teamcenter software, a leading Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solution from the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio. This collaboration allows Siemens’ global customers to improve their product development process based on immersive experiences with interactive, 3D content connected to the digital twin of a product.

The Spatial module within TeamViewer’s enterprise AR platform Frontline enables employees to wear Mixed Reality smart glasses such as the Microsoft HoloLens to execute tasks in a more intuitive, interactive way by providing them with digital information, three-dimensional elements, and multimedia content in an Augmented or Mixed Reality environment. Virtual information or holograms are placed on top of objects in the real world to enrich each employee’s reality for visual process guidance.

Due to the built-in no-code editor, process owners can easily manage and update the underlying workflows without including their IT department, for example, creating digital twins from CAD model data.

With the added TeamViewer Frontline Spatial module in Siemens’ Teamcenter, organizations can leverage their existing investment in CAD and PLM for increased productivity, efficiency, and process quality throughout the product development process and in aftermarket service and maintenance. It enables AR content creation based on PLM information without programming knowledge. The solution is expected to be available later this year.
