PTC announced on June 12, 2025, the introduction of model-based definition (MBD) capabilities within its Onshape platform. This marks the first MBD offering within PTC's cloud-native solution, enhancing its computer-aided design (CAD) and product data management (PDM) capabilities. Model-Based Definition allows engineering teams to create and manage all product data, including annotations, manufacturing information, and other critical details, directly within the 3D model. This approach streamlines the design process, reduces errors, and improves communication across the product lifecycle. This innovation reinforces Onshape's position as a leading cloud-native platform, offering benefits in speed of deployment, upgrade, and collaboration. The MBD capabilities are expected to drive further adoption by customers seeking to modernize their product development workflows and achieve a single source of truth for product data.
