AEGIS INTRODUCES TCM SOFTWARE TO ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY
PHILADELPHIA, PA – Aegis Industrial Software introduces
CircuitCAM FUSION TransCollaborative Manufacturing Software combining
CAD/CAM data preparation, management automation, supplier and customer
integration, plant-floor manufacturing execution, and quality functions
into one seamless, browser-based software system for the electronics
industry.
FUSION takes traditional Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM)
software capabilities and incorporates them into the first n-tier,
browser-based software for electronics assembly, and expands these
capabilities to improve virtually every manufacturing and managerial
function. Operating as seamlessly within one factory as it does across
hundreds, FUSION utilizes one data source to serve every factory
function, as well as customers and suppliers beyond the factory. FUSION
leverages the resources of the extended manufacturing enterprise by
acting as the collaborative “engine” allowing personnel to share and act
upon information, through their normal Internet browsers.
FUSION manages CAD design and Bill of Materials (BOM) through import,
error checking, and revision control, passes it through web-based
electronic sign-offs, and disseminates the resultant machine programs,
documentation, and process routing to web terminals on the factory
floor, and even out to customers. Total indented BOM support allows
FUSION to process every product from board to final assembly. Supplier
integration provides real-time web-quoting and simulations for product
configuration, as well as procurement. Paperless document viewing,
on-line quality manual management, and quality data collection on the
factory floor is achieved completely via browsers, eliminating the need
for recurring client-side software upgrades, thus freeing MIS from the
traditional workload related to a CIM software system. FUSION provides
efficient information management through non-linear activity control,
allowing multiple tasks in the preparation and dissemination of a
particular job to occur simultaneously from factories around the world.
