PTO 5.0 Advances Tool Automation Software Technology 



PEER Group today announces the availability of PEER® Tool Orchestrator (PTO™) 5.0, a major upgrade to its industry-leading tool automation software. While maintaining the core functionality that has made PTO today’s most popular tool automation software product, this release features an entirely new software development infrastructure including tool component self-discovery, broadened extensibility and an innovative user interface development environment. Now a true software development kit (SDK), PTO 5.0 marks a first in the high-technology equipment industry.



“Deployed on over 60 tool platforms, PTO has all the features to support any equipment configuration and factory requirement,” says Bill Schmalz, OEM Business Manager. “With the PTO 5.0 release, we are entering the next stage in the evolution of tool automation software. Now, OEMs can develop equipment-specific solutions entirely on their own.”


Key Advantages of PTO 5.0 
  • PEER® Tool Composer (PTC™) is a new, intuitive and user-friendly application that allows developers to quickly customize their platform
  • New UI development module lets OEMs design a tool unique to the market, and easily customize each tool shipment according to customer requirements
  • Extensibility feature lets OEMs easily adapt custom software and third-party products into the software infrastructure
