3DEXPERIENCE Tutorial - Intro to Engineering Release

Utilizing the Engineering Release app found within the Product Release Engineer role, users can quickly and easily manage engineering definitions, drive company part numbering conventions & manage lifecycle operations without the need of a dedicated CAD tool. Enhanced filtering options and mass editing tools streamline product development and foster collaboration across departments. Learn more  .

00:00:05 welcome today we are going to be taking a look at engineering release found within the product release engineer role engineering release is a powerful browser-based application without the need to leverage dedicated cad tools users have the ability to edit existing create new engineering items release build materials and much more our assembly structure was previously

00:00:26 modeled within solidworks when viewed in engineering release items are clearly visible with the ability to sort and filter on associated attributes toggling between direct and flattened views and even the ability to view full parts lists is easily accessible occasionally we need to add items to our assembly structure but don't have a need to model them

00:00:51 our hydraulic lifting cylinder will need to be filled with oil at assembly a new material selected to be added the pre-configured material is easily searched for and added with the required quantity an item is then created to house the material within our assembly when switching back to our reference view our newly added material is clearly

00:01:15 visible using the tools with an engineering release non-cad users are able to create new assembly structures such as the spare parts kit needed for our lift cart without leaving our web browser our newly created item is able to be open for edit and existing items are easily searched

00:01:40 for and added to the assembly [Music] duplicate makes reusing existing items simple and easy rather than starting from scratch our newly created assembly is copied and the existing components are reused using the built-in search tool we are able to find and open our assembly

00:02:21 material quantities are easily updated [Music] and additional documents can also be added now that our assembly structures are complete they are ready to be released before adjusting the maturity state we will pull and assign part numbers the next step is to move our items from an in-work state to released

00:02:57 we can then repeat the same process on our main assembly with our assemblies released the full parts list can be exported as a csv file while leveraging powerful browser-based tools found in the engineering release app updating and even creating new engineering structures is no longer limited to cad users
