Visiprise Manufacturing 4.0 offers tightly integrated CAPA capabilities, enhanced data customization options, dynamic routings and full production site-to-site data transfer features. The latest release includes more than 30 business processes, giving users production visibility across the global enterprise.

Enhanced features include:

*Product Workbench offers a one-screen vision of the as-planned product definition, giving operators the ability to indicate what item or revisions they want to define or review throughout the shop floor manufacturing process.*Production Site-to-Site Data extends the ability to transfer data between sites, allowing the complete production data - from partial manufacturing at one site to completion at another - to follow the product, providing for detailed genealogy and history down to the sub-assembly level.

*Automated Test Plans enable users to create and test automated data collection plans and will facilitate the future ability to link these data collection plans directly to a single piece of plant floor equipment.

*Dynamic Routing provides the ability to create a routing on the fly, reflecting the nonconforming operation process, and stored as part of the "As Built" record.

*Certifications were enhanced to include assignment at the item, customer-order and resource-enforcing control on the shop floor, including event management for alerts and alarming.

AlphaPREP PC-7030 oxide replacement system produces a highly bondable brown conversion coating on copper innerlayers using horizontal equipment by removing minimal amounts of copper.
 
Specially formulated for low-etch/high capacity operations, offers up to 60% reduction in consumption and waste treatment. Featuring a low copper etch factor of 0.9 - 1.1u, copper loss from fine lines and thin copper is reduced, improving performance on controlled impedance. 
 
Other benefits include:
Reduction in consumption and waste treatment;
Increased peel strengths on High Tg dielectrics;
Less frequent bath changes with increased up-time;
Improved yields and reliability.
