Optimal+ Named a Gartner “Cool Vendor” in IoT Analytics for 2017
Optimal+ offers the only big data software solution in the market that focuses on leveraging product analytics to improve yield and quality metrics in semiconductor and electronics manufacturing operations.
HOLON, Israel & SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Optimal+, the leader in big data analytics for semiconductor and electronics manufacturing operations, today announced it has been named a Gartner "Cool Vendor" in IoT Analytics, for 2017. Optimal+ is one of four companies profiled in the report and was recognized for its innovative, intriguing and impactful data analytics platform.
As we enter the era of the Internet of Things and Industry 4.0, achieving the highest quality standards without compromising time-to-market becomes an ever-increasing concern for semiconductor and electronics brand owners. Optimal+ offers the only big data software solution in the market that focuses on leveraging product analytics to improve yield and quality metrics in semiconductor and electronics manufacturing operations.
"General-purpose modern analytics tools can be used for the IoT in most instances, but two differences specific to IoT analytics — new analytics users and massive amounts of sensor data coming at high speed — are best addressed by capturing domain knowledge and incorporating it into advanced analytics", according to co-authors Jim Hare and Simon Jacobson, Research VPs at Gartner. "The product genealogy — combined with all of the test results collected throughout the value chain, and the respective environmental data — is fed downstream in the supply chain to create a ‘product DNA that can be used to reduce product recalls, improve the product's user experience, and protect the brand."
"In todays complex electronics ecosystem, analyzing and understanding the DNA of every product and how its quality and performance impacts the supply chain is vital," said Dan Glotter, Founder and CEO of Optimal+. "Our big data solutions are providing traceability throughout the supply chain to improve quality and deliver brand protection to semiconductor and electronics manufacturers."
According to Gartner, the "Cool Vendors" in Internet of Things Analytics 2017 profiles innovative vendors in IoT analytics that focus on some of the hottest areas of IoT - visibility into the manufacturing process, enabling new analytics users, and device diagnostics, repair and maintenance - to help data and analytics leaders increase the value of IoT projects.
The "Cool Vendors" reports reflect IT products and services that Gartner finds interesting and innovative. Because of the breadth and depth of knowledge and expertise in technology and business, Gartner is in a unique position to identify and evaluate up and coming vendors across markets, topics, and industries.

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs
Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
