FOR
IMMEDIATE RELEASE PARTMINER LAUNCHES NEW FASTENERS DATABASE Hardware and Fastener Components Now Available in CAPS Database Centennial, Colorado and Melville, New York – April 23, 2007 – PartMiner, Inc. today announced the addition of significant new content to PartMiner’s CAPSTM database. The new data set includes multiple fastener and hardware types focused toward the electronics industry. “Mechanical and fastener content can account for up to 30% of a total bill of materials in an electronic assembly. Including these types of parts in our database makes perfect sense and strengthens PartMiner’s coverage for our customers’ PDM, PLM, and parts management needs” according to Paul Magin, SVP content & solutions. PartMiner developed the new database by working with customers and their bills of materials directly, understanding the types of hardware used in their designs. Instead of the traditional shotgun approach, a user-centric method of content capture was employed. This allows PartMiner to provide more relevant content faster. The new Fasteners database includes bolts, knobs, nuts, rivets, standoffs, studs, screws and washers. This new content is available at no extra charge to CAPSTM subscribers. Users access the new content the same way they do for electronic parts--the new database uses the same award-winning CAPSTM family of tools for single-point search and retrieval.
