All About Jenlogix

Auckland based company Jenlogix has supplied technology solutions to a wide range of industrial customers and systems integrators since 1984, with a particular focus on the capture, transfer, processing and display of mission-critical data. In 1984 Jenlogix’s strategy was based on customised development, underpinned by innovative design, robust construction, durable performance and excellent technical support. While that hasn’t changed, the company’s approach to the way it builds its products certainly has. The 1990s ushered in an era of standardisation and mass-production, leading to a far lower cost for imported computer components and circuit boards.

This is when Jenlogix morphed into building computer systems and sub-assemblies from imported components, rather than manufacturing them from scratch. This became much more cost-effective and more reliable, and allowed more flexibility for the customer because when they upgraded, the supplier was able to supply a more modern solution and a warranty.

Jenlogix’s equipment supports the technology requirements of an industrial automation facility, capturing data from all the various sensors and machines in the factory, production line, farm, grading system, seabed, mine, vehicle etc. then transferring, processing and displaying it as meaningful, actionable information.

Jenlogix have long-term relationships with a number of excellent suppliers who provide them with the technologies to which they value-add to build their systems that support this capturetransfer-process-display cycle. Their key suppliers include Advantech, IEI, Litemax, San Lien, and ICP DAS amongst many others, and the technologies that they supply are industrial computers, embedded boards, panel PCs, ruggedized displays, touch screens, industrial keyboards, scanners memory, disk drives etc.

Jenlogix also build customised computers and sub-assemblies, and for certain specialised applications such as the agricultural and marine industries, unique functionality or sealing are often required. The trend amongst their customers is that large-scale volume manufacturers are now outsourcing sub-assembly work to companies like Jenlogix so they can focus on their core business, and they can configure, build to order and supply subassemblies very efficiently.

Another trend is in mobility, with many devices being deployed, fuelling the ever-increasing requirement to control what is going on remotely. In a very timely example, considering the recent tragic events in Christchurch, Jenlogix has a number of its embedded systems installed in remote locations to register earthquakes.  In the future many more remote locations will be able to be measured and monitored, whether for factories, farming, marine, geological, utilities or a multitude of new applications, and the Internet will be the main carrier for the communications.
