SHENZHEN, China, Aug. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — On August 18, VOOPOO launched its new DRAG X&S PRO, bringing a more innovative and professional experience for users worldwide with its one-button switch, new TPP X Pod, and user-friendly design.

Continued focus on user experience

In order to improve the operating convenience, DRAG X&S PRO uses one-button switch technology allowing users to experience its professional performance in an instant with a one-button switch. It also retains the traditional on/off mode giving users the freedom to choose different modes. At present, e-cigarettes on the market basically follow the traditional switch mode, which requires five consecutive presses of the button, increasing operating complexity for users.

“In the past, the DRAG series created the fastest 0.025s e-cigarette ignition record available at that time, applying a creative resin art process as well as innovative metallic leather materials, while continuing to explore the PNP/TPP universal platforms. We believe the new DRAG X&S PRO will also bring users a similar refreshing experience,” said VOOPOO CEO, Everest.

Innovative design captures intricate feelings

The newly-designed TPP X Pod achieves an innovative combination of pod and tank. The exquisite metal texture and food-grade PCTG material give the TPP X Pod the same appearance and texture as the Tank. It combines the most powerful TPP platform coil and GENE.FAN 3.0 chip, giving the TPP X Pod the same powerful performance as Tank.

The design details contain VOOPOO’s spirit for user experience. For example, the new airway layout is designed to avoid direct contact with E-Liquid, which allows for more sensitive auto-vaping. The simple internal structure layout makes daily cleaning more convenient as well as having an air hole specially designed for the MTL experience.

The RPA automation of banking processes has improved Compliance requirements, productivity, and reduced operating costs for one of the largest banks in the Middle east.

DUBAI, UAE, Aug. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Automation Anywhere, a global leader in Robotic Process Automation (RPA), recently announced a collaboration with Arab National Bank (ANB) to automate back office processes.

Established in 1979, Arab National Bank (ANB) is a Saudi-listed joint stock company that ranks among the 15 largest banks in the Middle East. Headquartered in Riyadh.

With support from Automation Anywhere partner, Orion Valley, ANB has automated 35 manual repetitive business processes within the bank using Automation 360, the world’s only cloud native, AI-powered RPA platform. More than 100 software bots now perform tasks within the bank’s Operations, Compliance, HR, and other departments.

“Automation Anywhere technology is enabling the future of banking, by allowing financial institutions like ours to achieve significant cost savings, whilst providing higher levels of productivity and efficiencies,” said Aiedh Al Zahrani, COO, Arab National Bank. “We successfully migrated more than 100 bots onto the Automation 360 platform, with almost zero downtime, thus saving an estimated 40,000 hours of manual work.”

ANB wishes to continue to streamline routine processes, improve quality of work and decrease associated operating costs. Deploying intelligent automation offers a way to meet these objectives.

“Today, banks and other financial institutions need to remain competitive but also must meet multiple industry regulations involving extremely time-consuming processes requiring dedicated human resources,” said Milan Sheth, executive vice president, IMEA at Automation Anywhere. “At its core, intelligent automation can automate mundane, repetitive business processes, and allow banks to take control of compliance costs, improve their risk profiles, and refocus their employee efforts towards innovation.”

ANB plans to continue implementing additional software bots to further streamline Bank processes in order to take advantage of the resulting additional cost efficiencies.
