myPDS DeDupe provides the simplest, most powerful, and fastest way to search and compare product data.

myPDS DeDupe is a shape-based search technology which provides a unique and highly productive solution to the data proliferation problems found amongst major manufacturers today.

Automatic classification based on shape

  • Searches across MCAD/PLM systems to identify similar digital objects by shape
  • Identifies and reports on similar and duplicate parts
  • Operates natively across all major CAD & PLM systems
  • Enables the enterprise to realize the potential of existing MCAD/PLM investments

Using our powerful shape similarity algorithm, myPDS DeDupe enables manufacturers to reduce part proliferation and save on operating costs. This goal is achieved by locating and cleaning proliferated parts, aggregating part data to make easy vendor and sourcing decisions, organizing data, and encouraging engineering data re-use.

Book Demo

Enhance the product development process:

  • New Product Development
  • Classification and Part Standardization
  • Part Proliferation/Data Cleaning
  • Sourcing and Supply Chain Management

myPDS DeDupe capabilities include:

  • Identifying duplicate and similar parts.
  • Organizing and classifying part data into useful catalogues.
  • Providing powerful and intuitive shape search capabilities.
  • Analysing and reporting on the data to enable effective decision making.
  • Integration to external attribute-based systems for additional filtering and consolidation of data in a single, similarity-based system

Add-on: Part Replace

Replace with similar parts in Creo

  • Using myPDS DeDupe to identitfy the 100% match objects from Windchill.
  • Download to Creo session and than replace the current model with session objects using Pro/Toolkit API.

The Challenge

Poor or lack of standardized classification and file naming discipline across a growing library of parts, an inability to locate and re-use existing designs, and the accumulation of parts (both digital designs and physical parts), leading to significant cost and lost productivity across the enterprise

  • Inconsistent Parts Databases
  • Insufficient Re-use
  • Part Proliferation

The Solution

A unique shape-based organization, classification and search technology that allows users to find and organize part designs, so they can be more efficiently managed, reused and removed from duplicate inventories.

  • Organize product and part information with out regard to naming conventions or language.
  • Simply and easily classify and standardize part information.
  • Find and re-use product and part information without regard to how it was named or filed.
  • Quickly and easily identify duplicate parts.
