Introduction of the PLM software began this quarter at Wintersteiger headquarters, where Siemens and Wintersteiger are working jointly to tailor the solution to meet the needs of Wintersteiger's diverse business segments. Wintersteiger produces machinery for industries such as service and rental solutions for the entire ski and snowboard sport, wood technology, seed mechanics, metals and automation. In a second step, Teamcenter will be rolled out to the entire Wintersteiger group, covering Wintersteiger AG and VAP Gruber Automations GmbH in Austria as well as Wintersteiger Sägen GmbH and Kohler Maschinenbau GmbH in Germany. Implementing Teamcenter and NX across the entire group provides a scalable, flexible digital enterprise solution for mechanical design which will be adapted to changing requirements. Using a single, comprehensive platform will prepare Wintersteiger to quickly and efficiently adapt to future challenges across all industries.

"For companies building machinery at the threshold of Industry 4.0, rapidly changing requirements are the norm rather than the exception," said Hermann Kaineder, Country Manager Austria, Siemens PLM Software. "Solutions that allow users to master new challenges collaboratively, and therefore quickly and simply, will help companies meet these future needs. We are proud that Wintersteiger decided in favor of Siemens PLM Software to boost their group-wide digitalization strategy using NX and Teamcenter."
