Sanmina-SCI deploys Aegis Software globally
Article Type: Industry news From: Soldering & Surface Mount Technology, Volume 22, Issue 4
Aegis Software has been selected and deployed as the global manufacturing process software for Sanmina-SCI, a leading global EMS company. While the business agreement for this selection was completed over a year ago, Aegis and Sanmina-SCI chose to wait to make this announcement until the successful deployment of the platform in the majority of PCBA facilities across Sanmina-SCI’s enterprise.
This announcement is tangible evidence that Sanmina-SCI selected the right partner for its global manufacturing software.
Aegis was chosen after a year-long evaluation of competitive software offerings conducted in real-world trials within Sanmina-SCI’s Guadalajara, Mexico facility. This evaluation rated ease of use, reliability, the vendor’s deployment capabilities, and programming capability for Sanmina-SCI’s placement, assembly, process and inspection equipment vendors and models. Sanmina-SCI determined that Aegis offered the most comprehensive programming and visual documentation support delivered via a proven, easy-to-use interface that would expedite adoption and reduce maintenance and training overhead.
The Aegis system deployed by Sanmina-SCI expedites NPI and ECO’s. The NPI portion first imports customer CAD and BOM data, cleans errors and runs comparisons. It then designs the route and creates the machine programs required for the job. The Sanmina-SCI deployment supports program generation for hundreds of unique makes and models of assembly, inspection and process machines.
