RapidManual for Teamcenter

RapidManual for Teamcenter allows authors to create 3D digital interactive maintenance and operation manuals, work instructions, and job cards in integration with Siemens DISW PLM system Teamcenter and its modules.

The tool speeds up product documentation authoring by re-using existing product lifecycle data from Teamcenter resulting in better product manuals in a fraction of the time. RapidManual for Teamcenter allows creating 2D illustrations, 3D animations, and text to clearly communicate complex mechanical procedures and store created documents in Teamcenter. 3D manuals emphasize visual knowledge transfer rather than reading comprehension, minimizing translation issues and improving information retention.

RapidManual for Teamcenter is a component of the RapidAuthor for Teamcenter. You can receive comprehensive sales information on the Siemens DISW website.
