Aegis Software, a global provider of Manufacturing Operations Management Software, (MOM/MES), announces that SERO GmbH has selected the FactoryLogix IIoT-based MES solution across their factories in Germany, Slovakia, and for new operations in the USA.

“With FactoryLogix, we are digitalizing our entire global operations in line with Industry 4.0, which enables us to meet the most stringent of customer requirements. This adaptive platform suits every specific need of our various production types, and it will accompany their individual growth as well as sustain our enterprise visibility across the world.”

SERO is a leading EMS provider, specializing in areas such as ultra-precision, high-volume automotive manufacturing in Rohrbach, Germany, as well as highly flexible industrial and medical production at their Semecs’ plant in Vráble, Slovakia. The new plant Syncron in Palm Bay, USA, is being set-up for high volume automotive production for the American continent.

“As our business culture drives expansion, we needed to reduce the number of disparate internal systems and databases that depend on manual data collection, which were limiting scalability,” states Dr. Dietmar Breisacher, Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of SERO, who continues, “With FactoryLogix, we are digitalizing our entire global operations in line with Industry 4.0, which enables us to meet the most stringent of customer requirements. This adaptive platform suits every specific need of our various production types, and it will accompany their individual growth as well as sustain our enterprise visibility across the world.”

SERO looks forward to a fluid transition as FactoryLogix provides multiple values derived from comprehensive traceability of products, materials, tools, process and test data, production station interlocking, fully interactive paperless operation documentation utilizing electronic PCB design and 3D-CAD digital twins, automated interoperability with ERP, as well as connection through FactoryLogix’ API for SERO’s unique, special testing platform, NedFlex.
