�ۿ۴�ý, a global provider of design engineering and master data management services, has won a project on Item Master Database Validation and Enrichment from a world leader in industrial automation control and information. The Client is one of the largest companies in the world, dedicated to industrial automation and information products. Their products, software and services are recognized for quality, innovation and performance. Their solutions enable their customers to increase productivity, reduce cost and improve ease-of-use. The Client needed support with Item Master Database Validation and Enrichment, that included BOM validation,compliance management services such as RoHS, REACH, IPC 1752, sourcing of test report and SDS, and conflict minerals declaration as per CMRT. �ۿ۴�ý did an initial analysis of BOM for cost reduction options. The team conducted an in-depth evaluation of the Client’s existing database, and explored for ways to improve data accuracy and to meet the Client’s requirements as comprehensively as possible. The Client was pleased with the team’s attention to detail and commitment, and rewarded the project to �ۿ۴�ý. �ۿ۴�ý’s Head of Master Data Management services said, “�ۿ۴�ý’s initial analysis brought to light disparities and inconsistency in the existing data maintained by the Client, which were preventing them from offering competitive prices in the market. As a result of �ۿ۴�ý’s detailed study, we could ensure that the Client’s key issues were addressed. It has always been �ۿ۴�ý’s aim to assist our Clients in identifying how to reduce component costs and improve sales and margins.” About �ۿ۴�ý Engineering LLP �ۿ۴�ý Engineering LLP (enventure.com) is a privately-held, ISO 9001:2008 certified engineering and data management solutions company, with full-fledged engineering service delivery center in India. �ۿ۴�ý has been serving clients in North America and Europe since 1997 and is today a preferred supplier of engineering services to Fortune 500 companies, across different industry verticals such as Hi-tech electronics, Medical device manufacturers, Oil & Gas, Automotive and Heavy machinery. �ۿ۴�ý provides a wide variety of services to its clients, in areas such as PCB Design, Plant Design Engineering, Piping Engineering, Mechanical product design, CAD, CAM, CAE, Technical Documentation, Master Data Management, Component Engineering, and Regulatory Compliance Support.

Photorealistic Rendering – Taking 3D Modeling to the Next Level

�ۿ۴�ý — Fri, 06 May 2011 08:34:32 +0000

CAD drafting has been in use for many years now. However, today’s mechanical CAD tools are far more sophisticated than those which were available ten years ago. For example photorealistic rendering, once the preserve of movies, TV and the gaming industry, is now widely used in mechanical design.

Photo realistic rendering uses 3D modeling to build a photorealistic representation of the final prototype. It may be static or animated, incorporating special effects such as shadowing and motion blurring. In this way, 3D rendered engineering animation can be of cinematic quality.

Software such as Autodesk 3D max render can be used in a number of ways. It gives the engineer a detailed realistic model to work with, which can be modified and resized in any number of ways. 3D rendered simulations can also be used to pitch ideas to marketing executives, showing them how the concept will look and perform before the has been created. If a design is a single component of a larger system, or a standalone product designated for a particular environment, photorealistic rendering can be used to show how it will appear when installed.

Today, companies offering CAD, CAM and CAE services can integrate 3D max rendering applications into existing system software. 2D TO 3D conversion allows engineers to create photorealistic graphics and animated images of existing models, without having to export them from one CAD environment to another.

We at �ۿ۴�ý Technologies offer a wide range of CAD, CAM and CAE services, utilizing the latest 3D Max Render software. We can radically reduce costs and time-to-market even with large, complex hardware designs.

BoM Cleansing and the Circuit Board Engineer

�ۿ۴�ý — Fri, 22 Oct 2010 10:00:04 +0000

All manufacturing and engineering processes require a , whether it’s manufacture, maintenance, or design. An electronic engineering bill of materials lists all the materials and components used to construct, for example, a printed circuit board.

In a small facility, where the entire project is handled by one or two people, BoM management is quite straightforward. However, where a team or separate companies are involved, things can get complex. The most straightforward scenario begins with a design technician using CAD drafting software (such as Orcad) to create a PCB design. This will include a bill of materials showing what components are needed, and in what amounts. This is then passed on to a PCB layout engineer, who will source the components needed (perhaps using obsolescence management tools to check the components) and construct the printed circuit board.

In busy companies where multiple orders are the norm, BoMs are sent from the Orcad PCB design engineers to purchasing departments, who aggregate the BoMs from all current projects into a single bill of materials, which is then sent to the relevant suppliers. To maintain accuracy and avoid obsolescence problems, BoM scrubbing should be a part of this.

Also called BoM cleansing, BoM scrubbing involves validation or correction of 3 key components for each item ordered: part number, component description, and name of manufacturer. These are compared to content on a central database, ensuring the details match up. An essential element of master data management, is just one of the high value engineering services we at �ۿ۴�ý Technologies offer to our clients.
