Cogiscan Receives Major Order from ACD for Material Track, Trace and Control Solution
Cogiscan has received a major order from ACD. ACD invested in a factory-wide Track, Trace and Control Solution for all material, including printed circuit boards, electronic components, tooling (feeders, stencils) and consumables (solder paste, etc.) from receiving to shipping.The Cogiscan TTC Solution will replace ACD’s incumbent MES software. Cogiscan was selected to replace the legacy system due to its proven track record to deliver on its commitments. The Cogiscan software architecture is very open for seamless integration with existing systems. This enables ACD to handle simple integration projects with internal development resources.
“IPrior to this new purchase, ACD had been using a subset of the Cogiscan TTC Solution for almost a year since the purchase of its new Juki lines with the IFS-X2 intelligent feeder system. When the company learned that IFS-X2 could be expanded to the rest of the factory, ACD contacted Cogiscan to investigate further. As the local manufacturers’ representative for Juki and Cogiscan, Southwest Systems Technology, Inc. was closely involved in the order.
“Cogiscan’s pre-sale work on this project along with its reputation in the marketplace made it a clear choice as a complete end-to-end upgrade to replace our current MES system,” commented W. Scott Fillebrown, President & CEO of ACD.
