Horsham, PA, January 2012 - Sao Paulo-based Sigma Technologies specializes in advanced technology services for Brazil's leading OEM and EMS electronics manufacturing companies. Sigma recently purchased iLaunch software from Aegis after identifying that their NPI process would greatly benefit from improved speed, accuracy and control. Their review of offerings from Aegis Software and competing suppliers had indicated that only Aegis could deliver the speed of conversion and control of processes that they sought.
Sigma was looking for comprehensive CAD/BOM import with error corrections, rapid conversion to intelligent data, and revision control for documentation and programming. Accordingly, they found that Aegis' iLaunch software allows rapid and accurate conversion of CAD/BOM data to revenue producing products with secure revision control.
iLaunch's Juki IS interface and accurate Juki IS programming capabilities were major influences in Sigma's decision. Juki IS is itself an intelligent manufacturing software package designed to optimize and streamline production on the shopfloor. The interface with iLaunch allows the Juki manufacturing environment to be closely integrated into Sigma's NPI strategies.
iLaunch's features optimize the assembly definition process, while generating quality information and manufacturing instructions from CAD/BOM data. Its single environment supports instruction sequences for system and mechanical assemblies as well as graphical visual aids for circuit card assembly. Product and version control is maintained, data integrity is verified and discrepancies are corrected before reaching production. Operators benefit from rapid, flexible generation of paper-based and paperless documentation and visual aids, and receive change notices, process deviations and quality alerts in real time.
Sigma's key commercial and personal electronics customers include Ericsson, Positivo and LG. The Company's core business includes high-tech electronics assembly, and is now moving towards chip manufacturing to be used on memory products, such as smart cards, NAND flashes for mobile phones and flash memories for memory modules.
"Ultimately, our business growth depends on our speed and efficiency in converting design data into deliverable revenue-generating products" commented Wilcar Junho, President of Sigma Technologies. "Accordingly, we chose Aegis and their iLaunch software as the best available route to achieving these objectives".
