German Electronics Assembler Expands Use of Aegis MES Software

April 23, 2025

ECKENTAL, Germany—Elektronik, a manufacturer of complex electronic assemblies here, is expanding its use of Aegis Software’s FactoryLogix manufacturing execution system. 

A division of HEITEC, Elektronik has been using the software since 2021. Now, HEITEC is scaling deployment of the IIOT-based software to drive greater production efficiency, automation and data-driven decision-making.

Since implementing the software, HEITEC has fully digitized its manufacturing processes, eliminating the inefficiencies and risks associated with paper-based documentation. The platform’s end-to-end traceability capabilities, from incoming material logistics control through generation of complete final assembly “as-built” records, have provided a competitive advantage by helping HEITEC meet stringent ISO certification requirements.

With this expansion, HEITEC is strengthening its commitment to lean manufacturing and operational excellence, unlocking new efficiencies and increasing production capacity. HEITEC is further enhancing visibility across all processes to drive even greater efficiency, leveraging expanded quality and process reporting along with deeper analysis of key performance indicators.

“In recent years, FactoryLogix has driven the development of our manufacturing processes in terms of traceability, process interlocking according to test steps, and worker guidance, while transitioning to a fully paperless environment,” explains Stefan Pechtel, head of operations at HEITEC in Eckental. “This transformation has enabled our employees to focus on higher-value tasks, driving more efficient production and improving overall throughput. Looking ahead, we plan to fully automate our factory and integrate data from all sources into FactoryLogix, enabling even more extensive traceability and deeper process insights.”
