iBASEt and Cogiscan Partner to Create Automated Electronics Assembly Solution
July 20, 2017 | PRNewswireEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
iBASEt and Cogiscan have announced a partnership to automate data collection and verification processes for manufacturers of complex electronic assemblies.
iBASEt provides software solutions to complex, highly regulated industries which have an increasing number of electronics components, such as aerospace and defense, medical devices, nuclear, industrial equipment, electronics, and shipbuilding. Manufacturers are increasingly interested in integrating production equipment with the Manufacturing Execution System (MES) for automated control and data collection to save time and minimize errors.
Cogiscan provides deep domain expertise with the integration of electronics assembly and inspection equipment and a wide library of machine interfaces to collect real-time production data. Working together, iBASEt and Cogiscan will help manufacturers of complex electronic assemblies achieve quicker integrated solutions to streamline the manufacturing process.
"The vision for Industry 4.0 requires open software solutions that can be easily combined to help manufacturers achieve the goals of a connected real-time manufacturing enterprise," said Conrad Leiva, VP Product Strategy and Alliances at iBASEt. "One company alone is not going to achieve this vision and integrate the myriad of different types of manufacturing equipment for different industries. By partnering with Cogiscan, iBASEt offers its customers more equipment integration options with a proven electronics industry leader."
"We are very excited to announce this new partnership. We look forward to working with iBASEt to provide the electronics manufacturing industry a comprehensive integrated solution for automating the assembly line with data acquisition into iBASEt's SOLUMINA MES from data rich equipment like component placement and inspection machines," said Dave Trail, Global Manager - Software Partners at Cogiscan.

Critical Minerals: The New Power Play in Global Trade
10/13/2025 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007Access to critical minerals essential for electronics manufacturing, and China’s monopoly of them, is increasingly under scrutiny, with gallium (Ga) and germanium (Ge)at the forefront of this discourse. However, all critical minerals imported from China share a similar narrative, and understanding the implications of this dependency and the risks to both U.S. commercial and defense sectors has created an urgent need for a comprehensive electronics strategy to secure and diversify access to these vital minerals. In this candid interview, USPAE Executive Director Jim Will discusses the issues and the mitigation steps that must be taken to adequately address them.
