Altium enhancement boosts data management for design teams
13 November 2013
Design Automation
Altium announced the release of Altium Vault Server Version 1.2 and the all new Team Configuration Centre (TC2).
Hosted on an organisation's own network infrastructure, the Altium Vault manages native electronic design data, including its revision history, lifecycle state and supply chain information. This new release adds the ability to migrate data from one vault to another, and enhances support for connecting to corporate enterprise systems such as ERP and PLM.
Altium Vault Server ensures that files released to manufacture meet release requirements and approvals. Additionally, reused design elements offer a proven track record, so components being designed in are viable for the lifecycle of the product. Organisations have a clear understanding of the upstream and downstream effects of the deprecation of any of these elements using powerful ‘where-used’ capabilities.
Based on Vault technology, TC2 helps organisations centralise and standardise their design environment. Everything from design tool setup and configuration to document templates and manufacturing file formats, can be set up and automatically deployed to each engineer’s desktop.
Until now, some organisations have turned to alternatives such as OS imaging or endpoint management tools. However these solutions can be complicated to deploy and lack any understanding of a design team’s true requirements.
By combining the Team Configuration Centre with an Altium Vault, engineering team leaders can be confident that their designers are working in a ready-to-go, reliable and company approved design environment; are using CAD library components that are known to be good and have acceptable supply chain solutions; and are handing off designs to manufacturing that have passed checking and are in the correct format.
