GreenSoft Technology Inc. of South Pasadena, Calif. has released an enhanced version of its GreenData Manager - REACH (GDM-REACH). The tool was designed to help suppliers comply with material composition declaration requirements from their OEMs. GreenSoft has added requirements such as IBM ES 46G3772 and HP GSE-011, Motorola W-18 and Sony ss00259 to its rule-sets within GDM-REACH.
According to GreenSoft, GDM-REACH now:
Validates supplier-reported EU RoHS status against material composition data
Offers a failure analysis function to generate a list of non-compliant parts in a BOM with associated substances under violation
Presents data on EU RoHS changes, listing components that have expired or will be expiring in the next 12 months
Performs product compliance validation by considering two source parts
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.
