SALT LAKE CITY, UT -- (Marketwired) -- 12/12/13 -- Cimetrix Incorporated (OTCQB: CMXX) (www.cimetrix.com), a leading provider of factory automation and equipment control software solutions for the global semiconductor, photovoltaic, LED, and other electronics industries, today announced the availability of a major upgrade to its CIMControlFramework™ software, the industry-leading software framework for equipment automation.
The new CIMControlFramework 3.8 product delivers additional functionality for both atmospheric and vacuum robot tool types, along with increased extensibility and enhanced usability. Many of the advances in the latest version of CIMControlFramework software were the result of working with over a dozen OEM customers on equipment automation projects involving many more tool types.
"We have a growing customer base for CIMControlFramework software in North America, Europe, and Asia," commented Dave Faulkner, executive vice president for sales and marketing at Cimetrix. "These customers gave us very valuable feedback on how best to extend the framework to support use cases in a wide variety of tool types, including ion implant, deposition, mask aligner, defect inspection, metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), and PCB manufacturing. By adding new features that support new tool types, we have extended the market for CIMControlFramework and further reduced the time to market for new applications."
Mr. Faulkner continued, "We are very pleased by the strong endorsement of our CIMControlFramework product in the market. We recently won a new key account because it provided the most out-of-the-box functionality, which reduces the OEM's time-to-market and risk. In addition, we were particularly gratified that CIMControlFramework was selected following a rigorous competitive analysis by very experienced engineers. We remain committed to continuously improve CIMControlFramework to ensure it remains the best equipment control solution on the market."
