Aegis Introduces End-to-end NPI/MES Solution
January 25, 2006 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
PHILADELPHIA — Aegis Industrial Software's MCAD system caters to increasing customer demand for an end-to-end new product introduction (NPI) through manufacturing execution system (MES) solution supporting electronics assembly, system integration, and box build. An integral part of the greater Aegis factory information system, it supports box and mechanical product documentation, tracking, quality, and materials management. Aegis customers may now support any discrete assembly processes in a single information system.
MCAD functionality is inherently incorporated within Aegis' Web-centric MES. Shop-floor operators may now step through and drill into iView's existing sequential assembly process feature with intelligent cross-reference to the mechanical components. Aegis MES also supports multi-level assemblies and material setup validation at any work station, and these assemblies are now better depicted in the visual aids.
Features include: support for common mechanical CAD vector file formats; digitizing, which allows 2-D capture from a 3-D drawing with the desired user-controlled perspective; and a mechanical Shape Library, which permits re-use of commonly used items and components, such as screws, spacers, nuts, etc. Also, a dynamic color-coded parts list display in the visual aids provides cross-referencing to the drawing in the same manner used for circuit board visual aids.
