Systems integrator Razorleaf is partnering with Tech Soft 3D to create an environment that enhances manufacturing collaboration, efficiency and accuracy.
STOW, Ohio—Razorleaf Corporation, a product lifecycle management (PLM) and manufacturing execution systems (MES) consulting and systems integrator, has formed a partnership with Tech Soft 3D, a provider of engineering software development toolkits for digital design and collaboration. Razorleaf is now a preferred integration service provider of HOOPS Exchange, HOOPS Visualize, HOOPS Communicator, and HOOPS Publish from Tech Soft 3D, the company said in a release.
The partnership is reported to marry the advanced developmental capabilities of Tech Soft 3D for CAD data translation, visualization, and improved workflows, with Razorleaf’s ability to bridge the domains of PLM and enterprise resource planning (ERP), MES, and customer relationship management (CRM). It is expected to benefit customers in multiple ways.
“Customers and independent software vendors alike are discovering the critical role integration plays in creating a cohesive environment that enhances collaboration, efficiency, and accuracy throughout the product lifecycle,” said Razorleaf Vice President of Products Tim Noce, in the release. “The advent and rapid growth of AI has only increased the importance of ensuring integrity of the data that is being utilized to drive design, manufacturing, and business decisions.”
In much the same way that Tech Soft 3D’s HOOPS Exchange provides access to a variety of mechanical CAD formats, Razorleaf’s CLOVER technology is said to provide a single, integrated connection for exchanging product data and information stored within PLM and sharing it with other downstream enterprise applications, such as ERP and MES. By partnering with Razorleaf, Tech Soft 3D is providing its independent software vendors (ISV) with an opportunity to integrate their standalone applications within their customers’ existing workflows, streamlining their processes, and reducing manual data entry and the risk of errors.
“At Tech Soft 3D, we recognize the importance of collaboration and innovation in driving the engineering software industry forward,” said Tech Soft 3D Senior Director Jonathan Girroir, in the release. “Razorleaf’s deep expertise in digital manufacturing and their commitment to excellence align perfectly with our mission to empower developers.
“By leveraging their unique perspective and advanced capabilities, Razorleaf consistently delivers solutions that enhance the performance and functionality of our technology,” Girroir continued. “We are confident in their ability to support our customers and help them achieve their goals, making them a trusted and invaluable partner in the industry.”
As a consulting and systems integrator, Razorleaf has specialized expertise in PLM, MES, integration, migration, design automation, and test automation. “We are focused on helping manufacturing organizations connect products and processes across the digital enterprise to drive more value from the innovation process,” the company said in the release.
