Aegis Software, a global provider of Manufacturing Operations Management Software (MOM/MES) software, today announced a partnership with Hanwha Semitech Americas, a leader in Surface Mount Technology (SMT) and electronics assembly solutions. Through this partnership, Hanwha SMT customers in the U.S. will have the option to leverage Aegis’ FactoryLogix® Machine Programmer solution, available as a cloud-based SaaS offering—enabling automated machine programming, faster new product introduction (NPI), and improved production efficiency without the need for on-premises infrastructure.
FactoryLogix Machine Programmer automates the conversion of CAD and BOM data into machine programs in seconds, with support for Gerber data and virtually all EDA CAD file types and versions spanning decades. By automating part number assignment, board rotation, and panelization, manufacturers can eliminate manual errors, reduce setup times, and ensure accurate component placement—accelerating time-to-market.
As part of this partnership, FactoryLogix Machine Programmer will be available as a SaaS-based option specifically for Hanwha SMT customers in the U.S. This cloud-based model eliminates IT infrastructure burdens while ensuring seamless, automated machine
programming. With automatic updates, manufacturers always have access to the latest features and optimizations without manual intervention. The fully managed cloud environment removes the need for costly on-premises maintenance, while its scalable nature allows businesses to easily adjust to changing production demands—whether for high-mix or high-volume environments.
"At Hanwha, we are committed to delivering cutting-edge solutions that simplify and optimize the SMT programming process," said Tim Kang, CEO of Hanwha Semitech Americas. "By offering Aegis’ FactoryLogix Machine Programmer as a SaaS solution, we enable our customers to streamline machine programming, reduce complexity, and accelerate production—all while leveraging the power of cloud-based automation."
Key Benefits of the Aegis-Hanwha Solution
