Geometric Releases DFMPro 2008 EX for Custom Rule Libraries
 MUMBAI,
India, Apr 22, 2008 - Geometric Ltd., a leader in Product Lifecycle
Management (PLM) solutions and technologies, today announced the release of
DFMPro 2008 EX, an integrated tool on SolidWorks which helps to get designs
right the first time. Organizations can now easily add their own DFM checks
and rules to automate in-house DFM practices into their standard operating
procedures.
DFMPro is a revolutionary “Design for Manufacturability” product for
designers and manufacturing engineers to facilitate upstream
manufacturability validation and identification of design areas that are
difficult, expensive or impossible to manufacture. DFMPro allows quick and
in-depth examination of product manufacturability. DFMXpress, a lighter
version of DFMPro is shipped with every seat of SolidWorks 2008.
DFMPro 2008 EX, the latest release of DFMPro, permits organizations to
build their own custom rule libraries easily and quickly. Basic knowledge of
Visual Basic (VB) scripting or SolidWorks macro languages is adequate to
build custom rules. DFMPro 2008 EX now also supports easy sharing of
manufacturability knowledge across departments, suppliers and vendors, thus
improving their efficiency by reducing manufacturability issues. Advanced
customization on the product can be provided by DFMPro product resellers,
and also directly from Geometric.
DFMPro 2008 EX has also been enhanced with additional out-of-the-box
rules for machining and sheet metal fabrication processes.
A limited period trial version of DFMPro 2008 EX is available at
www.dfmpro.com.
