In 2017, after 5 years of extensive technological research, Vayo has upgraded its DFA/DFM software product from a 2D solution into a fully-integrated 3D solution. VayoPro-DFM Expert is a unique 3D DFA/DFM solution for the electronics industry. At present, it allows you to quickly identify issues on assembled boards preemptively prior to production.
2D & 3D graphic representation of PCBA allows you to identify the visible potential defects. With dual monitors for both PCBA graphics, the DFM/DFA analysis is an absolute joy to work with!
DFM/DFA analysis work is much easier and faster. It provides a step-by-step workflow allowing you to learn & use this tool with ease. Now DFM/DFA analysis for PCBA is simpler than ever!
DFM Expert can support CAD sources such as Cadence Allegro/OrCAD, Mentor, PowerPCB, Altium/Protel, Zuken, ODB++, IPC-2581. It also supports XY coordinates + Gerber data source if a CAD source is not available.
The built-in component entity library comes with actual dimension data for all components (including length, width, height, pitch, and pin element). This function allows DFM Expert to analyze potential defects based on the reality of PCBA.
DFM Expert provides approximately 1500 rules for manufacturability analysis and inspection. These rules are distilled from Vayo’s vast industry experience and IPC standard specifications. DFM Expert also provides a flexible modification interface, allowing you to quickly and easily adjust parameters, add/delete check component types, disable/enable rules, and combine groupings.
Interactive queries to DFM/DFA results in both PCB & PCBA viewers thus easing the problem identification and understanding process.
With DFM Expert, you can automatically generate comprehensive 3D DFA/DFM reports. In easy-to-read formats, you can easily communicate the queries to other internal departments or demonstrate advanced DFA/DFM capability to your clients. Vayo could also customize your report according to your specific requirements to the form.
DFM Expert seamlessly integrates with EDA tool, thus allowing you to work more effectively. You no longer need export file, and load to DFM Expert.
Here are some sample issues found by DFM Experts. These could evolve to become design mistakes, fabrication issues, assembly risks or reliability problems down the line. DFM Experts will flag them all.
