Wirebot by Polygon Technologies Revolutionizes Wiring Assembly with Siemens Process Simulate

Product: Tecnomatix
Industry:
Robotic

Tackling the challenges of complex automation in wiring

Founded in 1999 and headquartered in Zur Yigal, Israel, Polygon Technologies has become a leading name in robotic engineering, specializing in advanced automation solutions for industries such as automotive, aerospace, electronics, and industrial manufacturing. Their latest innovation, Wirebot, is transforming the way wire harnesses are assembled in control cabinets — and it’s all made possible with Process Simulate from Siemens’ Tecnomatix® portfolio.

As Omer Einav, CEO of Polygon Technologies, explains:

“Using Process Simulate enables WireBot to predict potential issues in the design phase, reducing the risk of delays and improving the quality of the final product.”

A new approach to an old challenge: complex wiring automation

Handling flexible components like wires and fibers has long posed a challenge for traditional robotics. Electrical panel wiring, in particular, has typically been a manual, error-prone, and time-consuming process. Polygon set out to change that with Wirebot, a robotic system designed to outperform human precision in wiring tasks.

Thanks to Process Simulate, Polygon was able to virtually test and validate complex wiring scenarios before production, optimizing cable routes, avoiding collisions, and streamlining workflows. The result: faster production cycles, fewer errors, and up to 10% savings in copper material, significantly cutting costs and waste.

The key: digital twin, AI, and advanced simulation

Developing Wirebot required recreating human dexterity through cutting-edge technologies like haptic feedback, machine vision, dual-arm coordination, and advanced data processing. The resulting system merges robotics, artificial intelligence, and digital twin technology — made possible through Siemens’ Process Simulate.

“By integrating Process Simulate with WireBot, we provide customers with cost-effective component layouts in the design phase, enhancing wiring efficiency, saving time, and boosting productivity,” Einav says.

Results: precision, efficiency, and scalability

By simulating the process beforehand, Polygon reduced production cycle time by 30%, improved wire positioning accuracy, and minimized rework. Wirebot was also seamlessly integrated into existing manufacturing workflows, increasing overall operational efficiency.

The success of Wirebot has led Polygon to continue exploring new applications for Process Simulate, believing that virtual commissioning and digital twin technology are shaping the future of robotic automation.

Conclusion

The Wirebot success story is a testament to how advanced robotics and Siemens simulation technologies can solve complex challenges, drive productivity, and optimize resource usage. With Process Simulate, Polygon has entered a new era of automated wire harness assembly — and solidified its role as an innovation leader in smart manufacturing.

Siemens Process Preparation takes SPEA test scheduling to the next level

Product: Valor
Industry:
Manufacturing

The SPEA Leonardo programming software is highly capable, but when scaling from a single board to multiple boards, there’s always room for improvement. That’s where Siemens Process Preparation comes in—designed to optimize test programming efficiency and streamline the entire workflow.

Engent Inc.: Excellence in Microelectronics

Located in Norcross, Georgia, Engent Inc. is a contract manufacturer founded in 2003, recognized for being at the forefront of microelectronics assembly. With deep expertise in advanced surface mount technology (SMTA), they excel in low- to medium-volume, high-mix turnkey production.

Their engineering capabilities support every stage of the product lifecycle—from product and process development, proof of concept, and new technology introduction (NTI), to design for manufacturing (DFM), new product introduction (NPI), and volume production. As an ITAR-registered company with AS9100:2016 certification, Engent is committed to delivering exceptional quality and reliability.

A Key Upgrade: Efficient Programming for SPEA Machines

When evaluating the capabilities of Process Preparation for their SPEA flying probe machine, Engent identified a significant opportunity: extending assembly support and refining programming workflows to substantially improve overall efficiency.

Solving the Gerber File Challenge

One of the main challenges was that SPEA Leonardo does not support Gerber files as a basis for test program creation. Since some of Engent’s customers provided only these files, a robust solution was essential.

With Process Preparation, not only is intelligent CAD data supported—raw Gerber files (274X or 274D) can also be transformed into a digital product model. This enables the extraction of critical information such as pin connectivity, netlists, and component intelligence, bringing the starting point much closer to intelligent CAD formats like ODB++.

Key Ways Process Preparation Enhances SPEA Test Programming

When integrated with SPEA Leonardo, Process Preparation dramatically speeds up test programming through:

  • Seamless CAD Import – Ensures no loss of critical design data, including solder mask information. Missing solder mask layers? No worries—Gerber files can be used to reconstruct accurate board details.
  • Effortless BOM Integration – Rapidly and accurately links the Bill of Materials to the test program, ensuring the right components are identified and tested.
  • Intelligent Component Recognition – Automatically detects resistors, capacitors, diodes, and other components, even when CAD files lack clear designations.
  • Accurate Package Outlines – Essential for flying probe testing, as precise dimensions determine optimal probe placement. Process Preparation taps into the Valor Parts Library, with access to over 35 billion part numbers for detailed package data.
  • Automated Probe Placement – Using a complete digital twin of the PCB, Process Preparation calculates the best probe locations, reducing errors and debug time.

Less Downtime, More Productivity

Once the optimized test program is ready, Process Preparation sends all data to SPEA Leonardo in a single consolidated file, eliminating inefficiencies caused by rushed programming or manual adjustments.

Skipping steps may seem like a shortcut, but it often leads to costly delays during machine debugging. The goal is clear: minimize downtime. When the flying probe machine is running tests, it’s generating revenue. When it’s idle, it’s costing money.
