About PCBflow
Get instant, actionable feedback about PCB manufacturability before handoff. Accelerate time-to-market for your prototypes and NPIs. Access world-class DFM analysis, powered by Valor NPI, no setup is required. Use DFM rules created by your preferred supplier, and easily upload your designs in ODB++, IPC2581, Gerber274x, and many other common CAD formats. Assembly Included PCBflow merges accurate part geometry to your design (provided by VPL), and tests for assembly problems so you can adjust your board before it's too late. Designed to accelerate, simplify, and improve the handoff process from design to production. Designers and manufacturers can connect to share and collaborate on the platform, and instantly deliver designs to production. Secure, cloud-based, collaborative environment with no IT investment. Siemens takes information security seriously for the management of cloud environments and product offerings.

Siemens Valor
Valor process engineering solutions simplify the delivery of high quality, consistent surface mount technology (SMT) process collateral, empowering you to efficiently meet the engineering demands of high-mix, low-volume production. Whether the source is intelligent ECAD design software or unintelligent Gerber files, Valor process engineering solutions can deliver all PCB collateral from a single digital twin product model, reducing the work on the machines before a program is finalized. Data preparation activities such as CAD import, BOM import, panelization and part data management create the digital twin of the PCB assembly once, for all process needs. You can use the same model to deliver complete and consistent data to stencil design, SMT programming, inspection programming, test programming and assembly work instructions. Valor process engineering solutions also enables you to preserve manufacturing know-how, including manufacturing best practices, libraries, and more.

DFMStream
3D visualization and documentation of manufacturing data helps to minimize manufacturing defects and delays in production. DFMStream® is a comprehensive, yet easy-to-use tool suite designed to help engineers and designers analyze, verify and optimize a PCB design for successful manufacturing. It checks design and manufacturing rules on PCB design databases, Gerber and NC data any time during the PCB design cycle. DFMStream also fosters collaboration between engineer/designer and fabricator. PCB designs that pass standard design rule verification within the PCB CAD system, may unknowingly contain critical flaws that derail an expedient transition to manufacturing and assembly. Commonly, the flaws are discovered prior to production when design data is being processed for PCB manufacturing or assembly. In many cases, these flaws result in costly time to market delays as designs are updated and reprocessed to address issues detected in pre-production.
