PLM Components

PLM Components are 3D software development toolkits that increase the value of CAD, CAM, CAE and related PLM applications by reducing the time, cost and risk of delivering 3D software innovation to your customers.

More than 240 companies integrate PLM Components into 350 commercial applications for the benefit of six million end-users. We use PLM Components in our own applications and also license them to independent software vendors (ISVs). 

Licensing components to build a new software application – rather than reinventing the wheel with a proprietary solution – is often an easy decision. For more established software applications, switching to an alternative solution for innovative design, manufacturing or simulation capabilities may require more careful consideration.
