Discover Imodrill's experience with Windchill PLM technology
Imodrill specializes in the production of molds ranging from 8 to 16 tons, with a strong focus on the automotive industry. In the video, you can see how this PLM solution has revolutionized the workflow, improved communication, reduced errors, and accelerated the development process.
Challenges without PLM
Fragmented data management
Without a centralized system, CAD files, emails, and documents were managed manually, increasing the risk of lost information or outdated versions being used.
Collaboration difficulties
Multiple users working on different copies of the same files can lead to errors, rework, and inconsistencies in projects.
Time-consuming audits
Without a structured system, gathering documents for audits is a slow and error-prone process.
As soon as we began using the software, we noticed an improvement in communication and collaboration.

Faster audits
All relevant information is accessible with a single click, eliminating the need for physical document retrieval and speeding up certification processes.
PLM Software at Imodrill: The Windchill impact
Before implementing PTC Windchill, managing the mould lifecycle and collaborating within the design department was complex. With Windchill, everyone works within the same system, accessing real-time, always-updated information, preventing unnecessary errors.
The partnership between 9altitudes and Imodrill continues with a focus on continuous improvement. The next objectives include integrating Windchill with the ERP system and the cost estimation team, ensuring that all relevant organizational data is available in a single, always-updated location.
