Sat Nusapersada, one of Indonesia's largest electronics manufacturing services (EMS) providers, has adopted Siemens' Process Preparation software. This implementation is set to significantly reduce the New Product Introduction (NPI) timeline for printed circuit board assemblies and improve the efficiency of its surface mount technology (SMT) production lines by 23%.
Founded in 1990, Sat Nusapersada was the first high-tech EMS to be listed on the Indonesian stock exchange. The company has built a reputation for delivering reliable services to major clients, including Asus, Xiaomi, Murata, and Epson.
With the recent expansion of its SMT lines to 24, the company faced increasing production demands and a rising number of requests for quotations (RFQs) each month. To meet these challenges, Sat Nusapersada recognized the need to streamline its processes, particularly during the NPI phase.
The Process Preparation software from Siemens allows Sat Nusapersada to maintain up-to-date assembly, test, and inspection data in a unified environment, minimizing manual updates that often lead to errors and inconsistencies.
“We have achieved significant increases in our production capacity with the introduction of Siemens’ Process Preparation,” said Stanly Rocky, assistant general manager of Public Relations at Sat Nusapersada. “By reducing manual rework, we can better serve our customers and meet the fast-paced demands of today’s electronics industry.”
Since implementing the software, the company has experienced a 70% reduction in the time required to gather incoming data for projects. Additionally, SMT programming tasks have seen a 21% decrease in time, while design time for solder stencils has been cut by 30%, thanks to the software's learning libraries that optimize aperture settings.
“It’s great to see the benefits that Sat Nusapersada has gained from our Process Preparation software,” said Alex Teo, managing director and vice president of Siemens Digital Industries Software for Southeast Asia. “Our mission is to empower our customers to innovate and scale their production to meet global electronics demand.”
