MTF
MTF The MTF application is an integral part of CERN’s Engineering Data Management System (EDMS) and has been developed to capture manufacturing and test data. The basic requirement is to provide traceability for large quantities of complex parts manufactured in many different places and countries. This implies a wide range of data, such as information
