Valor Releases vPlan version 1.2
Yavne, Israel – April 15, 2008 – Valor Computerized Systems Ltd, a global provider of
productivity-enhancing software solutions for the electronics industry, announces a new
release (v1.2) of vPlan - Valor’s enterprise-level process engineering software solution for
electronics assembly.
The new version introduces many innovative features intended to enhance the ability of
manufacturers to transfer production between lines and factories even when CAD and AVL
data is not available, and create highly efficient Manufacturing Process Definitions (MPDs)
even when incoming data is of poor intelligence-level. In addition, vPlan v1.2 adds coverage
for additional machine models, further extending its vendor-neutrality and flexibility.
Among the new features included in vPlan version 1.2 are:
1. Re-optimization of legacy NC programs
Version 1.2 provides the ability to import existing machine programs even when no CAD
or BOM data is available, and turn them into optimized product models. Grouping can
also be applied, and the resulting model can be restored back to the original line or
transferred to any other line. This allows for easy integration of AVL information and
ECO implementation even when no CAD or BOM data is available.
2. Re-engineering of Gerber data
Version 1.2 allows extraction of footprint data and component list (if exists) from Gerber
and provides enhanced ability to align CPL data with Gerber data.
3. Bottom-Up Auto Generation
Version 1.2 enables import of legacy parts data and their conversion into vShapes –
Valor’s intelligent shape data. This method of machine part auto generation can be used
even when no AVL is available.
4. Alternate IPN Support
Version 1.2 provides the ability to store alternate IPNs in the database and at the
absence of AVL information, generate output for feeder set-up based on the alternative
parts.
5. Move to Line
Version 1.2 allows moving BOMs from one line to another with a single click and can
also move parts data automatically.
6. Workflows
Version 1.2 enables administrators to create standard workflows that can later be
followed by other users when using the tool.
7. Enhanced vLibrary
10,000 vShapes have been added to vPlan’s built-in shape library, and full JEDEC trays
have been added to the supply form library. Enhanced filtering capabilities have been
added as well.
.
Commenting on the new version, Julian Coates, Valor’s VP Assembly Market, said “as
leading solution providers we are committed to deliver new levels of innovation and added
value to the PCB assembly market. Version 1.2 of vPlan reinforces that commitment with
new and improved functionalities that will further assist our customers in streamlining their
production processes, and extended coverage of machine models, reinforcing our position
as vendor-neutral engineering platform providers.”
vPlan is a revolutionary solution for synchronized process engineering in an easy to use
package. It is a single solution that delivers a complete, seamless engineering process from
CAD to machine, covering SMT, Through Hole Technology and manual assembly. It also
delivers complete comprehensive and synchronized Manufacturing Process Definitions
(MPD) to the production floor, and automatically generates machine specific libraries on
demand (registered patent).
