Aegis Europe will exhibit Mechanical CAD Module (MCAD) for CircuitCAM at Nepcon NEC, Birmingham at stand #H70. This system enhancement answers the increasing demand for an end-to-end NPI through MES solution supporting electronics assembly, system integration and box build. MCAD supports box and mechanical product documentation, tracking, quality and materials management as well as circuit card product launch and manufacturing execution. Customers may now support any discrete assembly processes—from circuit boards to full system level assembly—in a single information system.
MCAD functionality is inherently incorporated within Aegis’ Web-centric manufacturing execution system. Shop-floor operators can step through and drill into iView's existing sequential assembly process feature with intelligent cross-reference to the mechanical components. Supports multi-level assemblies and material setup validation at any work station; these assemblies are now better depicted in the visual aids.
Features and benefits include:
Support for common mechanical CAD vector file formats.
Simple digitizing allows 2-D capture from a 3-D drawing with the desired user-controlled perspective.
A mechanical Shape Library permits re-use of commonly used items and components.
A color-coded parts list display provides easy cross-referencing to the drawing in the same manner used for circuit board visual aids.
