September 23, 2005 |Estimated reading time: 1 minute
ROCHESTER, N.Y. and BROMONT, Quebec — Hover-Davis and Cogiscan announce the second phase of their long-term strategic partnership. Under a global OEM reselling agreement, Hover-Davis will offer Cogiscan RFID hardware and software applications that mix with their tape feeders, label feeders, and Direct Die feeders. Hover-Davis will now be able to provide intelligent feeding solutions that can seamlessly integrate with existing equipment and information systems.
Hover-Davis intelligent feeding solutions can: identify and track components and feeders with barcode and RFID; provide real-time visibility of all materials on the shop floor; reduce waste of time and materials; eliminate human errors and improve productivity; generate complete component traceability reports; standardize data acquisition across multi-vendor lines; and enable communication between feeders, machines and systems.
"We are very excited about this new step in our partnership with Cogiscan. We feel that our customers will greatly benefit from our ever increasing range of feeding solutions, making it more and more compelling to integrate them with their manufacturing systems," states Rick Howe, Hover-Davis' vice president of sales and marketing. Francois Monette, Cogiscan's vice president of sales and marketing, adds, "We are thrilled to expand our collaboration with Hover-Davis. This represents an important step in our vision of becoming the global standard for RFID-based material control in our industry."
