Authentise, a provider of data-driven workflow tools for additive manufacturing (AM), has acquired all the assets of Elements Technology Platform, a provider of self-serve workflow tools for manufacturing. As part of the transaction, Elements’ team will join Authentise.

The company says the partnership enables discrete manufacturers to access connected workflow management solutions used by some of the world’s leading AM companies to manage their lot-size 1 operations efficiently, flexibly and transparently.

“Elements is the perfect addition to the Authentise portfolio,” says Andre Wegner, Authentise CEO. “Like Authentise, Elements has been laser focused providing manufacturing operations with the flexibility they need in the post-pandemic world with the efficiency that data enables in the 21st Century.”

The combination of the two companies is said to bring together an effective mix of tools and technologies for workflow management, real-time machine data insight, AI, RFID technologies and more, on a proven, open, data-driven platform for the manufacturing supply chain.

“Elements provides customers with a unique self-serve tool for all types of manufacturing operations to quickly create, capture and access repeatable shopfloor processes,” Wegner says. “Delivering intelligent production planning and scheduling, and real-time views of production, customers can track orders like they’re paying for coffee.”

The company’s goal is to give customers flexibility and responsiveness benefits to a broader manufacturing audience, delivering end-to-end transparency, reliability and efficiency to manufacturing operations using data.

“It’s time to refocus on what’s core to manufacturing: the worker. Supporting them with data and modern tools gives us more context in manufacturing and allows us to drive better quality, insight, and completely new business models,” says Joe Handsaker, Elements Technology CEO. “If nothing else, the pandemic has shown that a radical rethink of the way things are made and delivered is necessary.“
