Collecta for Electronics manufacturing

Collecta is an operations platform for electronics manufacturers and EMS providers. Build no-code modules for work orders, component lot traceability, SMT and test results, and RMA/field-return tracking, connect your line and test equipment, and run a Claude-powered AI agent across production. It consolidates the traceability and test data that PCB assembly and box-build operations normally spread across MES add-ons and spreadsheets.

The challenge

What slows these plants down

The disconnected tools and paper trails Collecta is built to replace.

Component lot and reel traceability is hard to maintain, complicating containment when a part is found defective.

SMT, AOI and functional-test data live in separate systems, so first-pass yield analysis is manual.

ECOs and BOM revisions are tracked in documents, risking the wrong revision being built.

RMAs and field returns are logged in email, disconnected from the unit's build and test history.

Automate it

Automations that earn their keep

Trigger → condition → action, all permission-aware and audited.

When a unit fails functional test, link the result to its build record and route it for repair or scrap disposition.

When a defective component lot is identified, trace forward to every unit and work order it was used in.

When an ECO is approved, lock the affected BOM revision and notify production to build the new version.

On a schedule, compute first-pass yield by line and product and flag any drop below target.

FAQ

Electronics manufacturing, answered.

Yes. Model components, reels and units as related modules; bidirectional relations let you trace a suspect lot forward to every unit built with it and backward from a failed unit to its components — making containment and recall scoping immediate.
Capture test results in a module related to each build record, either by entry or via the integration layer from your test equipment. Formula fields compute first-pass yield, and dashboards trend it by line and product so yield drops are caught early.
Yes. Build an ECO module with approval routing and a status workflow, relate it to the affected BOM revision, and automate the lock-and-notify step on approval — reducing the risk of building an outdated revision.
