GreenSoft Technology Inc. of South Pasadena, Calif. is providing a searchable database of environmental compliance and component information. The company’s GreenData tool is a subset of GreenSoft’s component database that allows companies to send in a parts list to get match showing the percentage of environmental compliance data against the scrubbed bill of materials (BOM). “GreenData provides a snapshot of the data we provide to electronics manufacturers,” says Larry Yen, president and CEO of GreenSoft. “Documenting environmental compliance continues to be a concern for manufacturers and we wanted to give people a look at what we can do.” Yen notes that companies can dneter a part number and get an instant result – and if GreenSoft doesn’t have the information you need, Yen says they will get it quickly.
Against a backdrop of mounting product complexity and a need to keep a lid on development costs, companies are recognizing a need to make simulation a more integral part of the design process. In response, vendors in the CAD world are building out CAE functionality as part of their CAD suites while simulation vendors are building tighter integrations to leading CAD tools. Keith Meintjes, Ph.D., Practice Manager, Simulation and Analysis at CIMdata, Inc., joins Design News CAD Editor Beth Stackpole in this radio program to explore the new face of integrated CAD and CAE, how companies are benefitting from this tighter partnership between platforms, and how integrating CAE earlier in the development cycle pays off in optimized product designs.
