RBP Chemical Technology introduces FoamFREE ONE for primary image developers, strippers and solder mask developers. It is a silicone-free non-solvent that suppresses foaming at very low usage levels.

FoamFREE ONE leaves no residue behind or in the machine. In addition, the free-rinsing agent lowers costs and chemistry consumption.

RBP Chemical Technology introduces Microstrip ONE, a fine line resist stripper. The fully aqueous-based stripper is reported to turn resist into fine particles, allowing for complete removal.

It removes resist form beneath overplated areas and can process narrow line spacing less than 4 mils. The improved metal inhibitors promote copper etching.

Mentor Graphics Corp. introduces FloEFD v.9.0, targeting the simulation and analysis of electronics cooling applications.

Designers are able to analyze sophisticated electronic products because FloEFD integrates with MCAD design solutions. While in the MCAD environment, the design database can easily generate simulation models, providing a streamlined design flow for increased productivity and accuracy.

Features include access to a wide range of engineering databases and libraries and Joule heating. FloEFD suite includes FloEFD Pro and FloEFD V5, for support of PTC Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire and Dassault Systems CATIA V5 platforms.

Ucamco introduces Integr8tor v.4.1. Integr8tor is an automatic input and analysis tool designed to increase front-end throughput by up to 30%. Automatic data input and design analysis capabilities provide job parameters for fast and accurate quotations.

Version 4.1 features a user interface based on Adobe’s Flex. Integr8tor runs securely on major browser and desktop systems, and a downloadable active PDF Request For Quotation form allows users to input non-CAD job parameters in a format that is directly read by Integr8tor. This saves time and reduces errors.

The latest version allows users more options to intervene directly where data is ambiguous or incomplete. Integr8tor runs in both Ucamco UCAM and Frontline Genesis environments.

Zuken introduces E³.panel, a panel design system with integrated 3D functionality. It allows the physical representation of cabinets to be designed and developed, offering an easy-to-use solution for panel layout and wiring.

E³.panel is an add-on option for E³.schematic or E³.cable, with complete online integration. Features include interactive and automatic wire routing, automatic and interactive placement with online checks and cable duct fill calculations with graphical displays.

In addition, determined data can re reused for production. Information is synchronized online, regardless of where design changes have been made.

EMA Design Automation introduces Component Information Portal (CIP) Version 2.2, for design capture and data management. The latest version of CIP adds 800 additional parts to the existing foundation library and increases the CIP Enterprise foundation library to more than 5,000 parts.

Designed for multi-user environments with more complex data management requirements, CIP Version 2.2 takes advantage of the relational database support in Cadence OrCAD Capture CIS 16.2.

The advanced export feature allows users to update an external list of parts with information from the CIS database. CIP Enterprise can convert an OrCAD Capture CIS BOM into a BOM that is hierarchical, showing the manufacturers linked to each company part number. In addition, engineering teams can manage component data via the CIP web-based browser.
