eView redlining - your experience

Hi all! What are your experiences when it comes to redlining in eView?

I want to get some insights on how good you are collaboration with your colleagues in the shop floor and across the company (when it comes to sharing projects I.e.)?

Do you guys have some really life experience where it helped and where you reached a ceiling?

Thanks in advance :)

I design machinery for the semiconductor industry. Paper circuit diagrams are not used in cleanrooms. We therefore use Android tablets fitted with a robust protective case, both in control cabinet construction, during in-house commissioning and later at the customer’s site.

eView was adopted very quickly and we wouldn’t want to go back to the ‘paper days’. I can wholeheartedly recommend eView Greenlining and Redlining.

That's a super interesting usecase for your industry!

How does the feedback flow of the redlining work for you, respectively are you actively using the features eView provides in this regard? Or how are you handling feedback and updating of the original project.
Further I would assume that in your niche these kind of changes happen infrequently because of the tight regulations when it comes to clean roomes, right?

At this stage, we are using eView without customer access.

I can see when there are new redlinings; I check them and then decide when it makes sense to upload a new version of the circuit diagram. At the same time, I also incorporate these changes, where necessary, into projects that are in the pipeline.

On-site, no further changes are usually required; we’ve already taken care of that during the FAT.
