Holistic digitalization strategies and manufacturing solutions for Smart Manufacturing

Digitalization of electronics manufacturing for Closed Loop Manufacturing

Successful Smart Manufacturing in electronics production

For years the electronics manufacturing industry has been among those with strongly growing requirements and turnover figures. In a global, dynamic market environment a fast offer preparation (BOM), an efficient New Product Introduction (NPI) and an effective manufacturing process starting from batch size 1 and are crucial for competitiveness. Increasingly complex supply chains, the rising number of product variants, ongoing price pressure and growing regulatory and quality requirements across the entire production process are increasing the pressure to prepare the production for Smart Manufacturing and digitalization in compliance with Industry 4.0 concepts.

The challenge for OEM's, contract manufacturers (EMS) or PCB manufacturers is to optimize their own processes in the short term, to integrate existing system solutions and manufacturing cells and at the same time to prepare for a dynamic competitive environment in the long term. This is supported by modern solution platforms integrating all processes from design to engineering, planning and production to analytics through a Digital Thread. Based on this future-proof solution architecture, digitalized production methods such as Digital Twins and Closed Loop Manufacturing can be implemented.

We support customers in electronics manufacturing worldwide for more than 25 years to digitalize, optimize and automate manufacturing processes. Our project and implementation approach is based on holistic digitalization strategies and industry-specific solutions for electronics manufacturing for BOM, Process Engineering, APS and MES.
