AEGIS – FUJI AGREEMENT PAVES WAY FOR SEAMLESS
INTEGRATION
BETWEEN FUJITRAX SOFTWARE AND AEGIS ENTERPRISE MES SYSTEMS
PHILADELPHIA, PA – Aegis Industrial Software Corporation, the
leader in Manufacturing Information Management Systems has announced
that the company has finalized an agreement with FUJI to share
integration protocols to FUJI's FujiTrax software. This partnership
enables FujiTrax to seamlessly integrate to the Aegis MES systems for
line monitoring, feeder setup and verification, and traceability. Now
Aegis can offer FUJI and multivendor customers a singular Total
Traceability and MES solution involving FUJI NXT and other
FujiTrax-compliant lines.
This is a huge step forward for electronic manufacturers utilizing both
FUJI and mixed equipment lines because unlike most competitive systems
that offer feeder verification and traceability solutions for FUJI
equipment by appending invasive and proprietary systems onto the
machines, Aegis is closely cooperating with FUJI through this agreement.
In this way, the software and integration elegance of FUJI software and
hardware systems is fully leveraged within the Aegis enterprise solution
in an elegant, forward-compatible, and FUJI-endorsed manner. Since Aegis
software systems are already compatible with the overall machine mix in
most manufacturing facilities, this creates the ideal solution for
totally seamless factory integration.
Tony Picciola, FUJI Technical Services Manager said, "We see this
partnership with AEGIS as the natural advancement of our commitment to
meet and exceed the needs of our customers. At FUJI, we continually
strive to set industry standards to ensure that what we offer our
customers is always on the leading edge of product development. The
shared integration protocols between Aegis MES and FujiTrax software
provides a total factory solution for our customers that is easy to
implement and cost effective."
Jason Spera, Aegis CEO, said, “We are happy to help FUJI customers who
often require traceability and manufacturing execution systems in
multi-vendor and enterprise applications. This integration agreement
makes FUJI lines and software an integral part of Aegis-enabled
factories at both the programming level via Flexa and at the MES level
via FujiTrax. Aegis integration to FUJI's most current software
offerings enables our joint customers to benefit from value and
expertise of both FUJI equipment and Aegis’ powerful MES solutions."
