With our PDM/PLM solution you can easily and flexibly manage different CAD data and at the same time have access to a modern document management for your article-oriented work.
Our product lifecycle management guarantees the holistic management of all data and information that is generated during the development of new products or processed and distributed when updating existing products. Replace unprofitable processes with a well-functioning, digital infrastructure and efficient, digital workflows throughout the company.
Link office documents, E-mails and any other files to your articles and products to get a quick overview of the relevant information. Archive documents through our release system and access past information through our version management.
Link drawings and geometries to articles, use our release system, derivation and versioning functions as well as the sophisticated search functions to free your everyday design work from duplicate, redundant or even useless work.
HELiOS as a multi-CAD capable PDM system and offers you a central building block for the consistent as well as access-controlled data flow between your CAD, PDM and ERP systems. All essential information will be made available along the entire product lifecycle.
HELiOS can be easily integrated into your company's existing IT structure. With the standardized interfaces to a wide variety of software components, information can be managed directly where it originates.
End-to-end communication with a cross-departmental system, where data gets into the right hands based on user rights and checklists including workflow technology lead to smooth and error-free processes.

„We are happy that we were able to seamlessly interface our ERP system with HELiOS. The data is automatically synchronized. This saves time and reduces errors caused by different versions that would otherwise still be in circulation, and prevents data loss due to incorrect forwarding between departments.“
Robert Förster, CAD-responsible Project Manager
Ingenieurbüro Dipl. Ing. Gronow
„lthough we are not a large company using HELiOS's workflows, since only one designer works on the current project at a time, we are able to use the HELiOS system for all our projects. However, we are dependent on a secure document management system using systematic folders and subfolders that update automatically.“
Holger Gronow, General Manager
SIVAplan GmbH
„As a customer we benefit from the possibilities that only a manufacturer can offer: Further developments and implementations on customer request. This has enabled us to optimise our processes even further and the ISD uses the know-how from the daily use of the solution for its further enhancement of the PDM software HELiOS.“
Daniel Althaus, Mechanical Design
Bernard van Lengerich Maschinenfabrik GmbH & Co. KG
„CAD-generated drawings must also be managed. So HELiOS was added in the course of the HiCAD introduction. Our decision was supported by the fact that both programs come from one developer and are perfectly coordinated. The fact that the ISD is a German developer also favoured our choice.“
Thomas Vietz, System Administrator
MBS Hydraulik GmbH & Co. KG
„Time that is saved by using HELiOS is immediately used for other activities - for essential design processes. Especially when entering master data, a lot of time is saved, as this data is now directly attached to the article and does not have to be re-entered when it is reused.“
Kai Ellerbrock, Programmer
Wächter Packautomatik GmbH & Co. KG
„By using the PDM software HELiOS, the search effort for parts, assemblies or documents could be greatly reduced. The daily management of documents has become much clearer, easier and more structured.“
Robert Förster, Chief Designer
Introduction of the new PDM system
developed for integration
Product development is characterized by a high degree of division of labour and simultaneity. The starting point for greater process efficiency is therefore the avoidance of manual processes that are associated with quality losses. The first step is the introduction of a PDM system. At this point we can offer our customers several options for introducing HELiOS in their company. We can provide them with the right product variant for every requirement. No matter whether it is an out-of-the-box solution for the entry of smaller companies into the PDM world or a mature concept for an optimal company-wide PLM solution.
HELiOS "Out of-the-box" is based on our delivery standard. This has proven itself over decades of project experience as a proven scope for the introduction of CAD data management. The introduction takes place within one week and is suitable for companies with up to five design workstations without a connection to systems other than the CAD system. In this short period of time, only limited adjustments can be made specifically for your company, so that in the first step you work with the standard configuration delivered by us. On the other hand, this type of implementation is very cost-effective, especially for smaller companies.
Our recommendation to be able to generate the optimal benefit from our software in your system and process landscape is the project-based introduction of HELiOS PDM. A PDM system changes your processes, but it must also adapt to the prevailing evolved processes in your company. Our experienced consultants and programmers conduct workshops with you, conceptualize the optimal use of the software in your company, implement the appropriate configurations, train you and support you in both the test and productive phases before we hand you over to the competent hands of our hotline and support department on a long-term basis.
Whether you are a small manufacturing company or a large international enterprise - thanks to its modular design, HELiOS can be optimally adapted to your company-specific requirements.
