TCAA
The Teamcenter® Integration for Autodesk® AutoCAD® (also known as TCAA) is developed by MechWorks (part of ITI from 2018) and sold by Siemens Digital Industries Software.
TCAA provides a bridge between Autodesk® AutoCAD® and AutoCAD Mechanical® as the design system and Teamcenter® as the system of record. TCAA improves efficiency while enabling users to focus on product development. In addition, users are able to manage data with Teamcenter® with minimal effort, referring to clients only for virtual paperwork such as sign-offs and ECO processing.
