ATS International CM4D v19 product quality validation software

ATS International has released an updated version of its product quality validation software. Version 19 of CM4D provides enhanced performance capabilities that will allow users to retrieve inspection data, generate critical quality reports, analyse production problems and prevent build issues more efficiently. Among the enhanced features, users will benefit from the 64-bit architecture and CrypKey licensing.

ATS CM4D is now available as a 64-bit application. This will allow the software to use modern 64-bit operating systems to their full potential, both in processing power and memory utilisation. Although the web-based applications are not 100% 64-bit, users will still benefit from the improved performance of the 64-bit services and the CM4D client that is run by the web services. The product is also available as a 32-bit application for users with 32-bit operating systems.

As of version 19, CrypKey licensing will replace FlexLM and previous versions of CrypKey licences. All upgrades to v19 will require a new licence, but if a current SMA is in place, a new licence (with the same features as the current licence) will be included with the upgrade.

If users are upgrading to v19 from a previous version, they will need to perform a one-time migration of all existing DataSmith translators, DataSmith Batch settings and database passwords. The necessary migration tools are included with the v19 installation packages.
