Product Briefing Outline: Camstar Systems has released ‘Camstar Enterprise Platform’ Version 4.5 for general availability. Enhancements in version 4.5 – driven in collaboration with leading manufacturers using the Platform – include expanded enterprise-caliber capabilities for global enterprises with multiple manufacturing locations and outsourced operations. Version 4.5 augments the Platform’s configurability and usability to allow users to quickly adopt the solution with minimal training – even where complex manufacturing and quality processes span discrete, batch and hybrid operations.

Problem: Competition to deliver the lowest cost per watt requires continuous improvement and reliable quality and delivery from every plant and every line.  Solar manufacturers must grow globally while containing costs in order to compete.  Removing manufacturing variability to consistently produce highly efficient products is required as well as continuously improving design and manufacturing to increase yields and resource utilization.
