One application for the entire order ..
Every order brings the same tedious work: reading in customer data in unfamiliar formats, assigning components, keeping track of changes, preparing data for every machine, inspecting first articles. EFA SmartSuite takes it over – in one application, with a single data set from quotation to inspected assembly.
- Any customer format: read in BoMs, coordinates and revisions automatically by macro.
- Captured once: what you prepared for the quotation goes into work preparation and production without re-importing.
- Reliably inspected: first articles, small batches and manual assembly with EFA Inspection® – using augmented reality and AI-powered AOI.
- Developed with you: since 2010 together with EMS providers, additional functions also tailored to individual customers.
From quotation to production ..
EFA SmartSuite starts where EMS providers lose the most time every day – in each of the three phases of an order.
Quotation phase
Take over customer data instead of retyping it
- Take over customer data in any format – automatically by macro
- Connect your own database smartly
- Find suitable components online
- Prices and availability automatically up to date
- Standardised export
Work preparation
Compare BoMs automatically instead of line by line
- Compare BoMs automatically
- Teach in coordinate data
- Colour-code assembly plans
- Validate data
- Standardised data export
“… time savings of more than 50 % in work preparation …”Rolf-Dieter Haake, A+B Electronic
Production
Inspect components instead of searching the PCB
- First article inspection
- EFA AOI with AI
- Setup check
- Small batch inspection
- Manual assembly
- LCR measurement
- Conformal coating inspection
How it all fits together ..
What you capture for the quotation, work preparation and production continue to use without re-importing – collected in the digital manufacturing folder and connected to your ERP system, MES and database.
One data set for all phases
Read in once, used in every phase – this saves time and avoids errors.

With EFA, we achieve SMT line releases much faster.
In addition to the enormous time savings, we have also standardised our production documents. As a side effect, the workflows are of course standardised too. This has a direct impact on the subsequent production steps in our plant.
This type of inspection (augmented reality inspection) reduces the downtime of our production lines!
The EFA inline solution won us over with its automatic image capture. This lets us inspect batch sizes from 0 to 1,000 with EFA Inspection without any problems.
Overall, the processes concerned have improved through significant time savings. In addition, the system reliably detects placement errors and thus contributes to overall process optimisation.
We were also able to train people who do not normally carry out optical inspections. This means every shift can easily monitor its own process steps.
