BL!XT expands collaboration with Sanmina through commercial agreement

Feb 19

BL!XT TECH AB is proud to announce that we have signed a commercial agreement with Sanmina Corporation, one of the world’s largest Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) providers. The agreement expands our collaboration around BL!XT Programmable Power™, a software-defined energy technology enabling real-time monitoring, protection, and control at machine level.

This partnership represents an important step forward in how industrial facilities can use real-time electrical data not only for visibility, but for measurable operational improvements.

Turning machine data into real operational results

Modern manufacturing is under increasing pressure to improve energy efficiency, reduce downtime, and increase reliability. With BL!XT Programmable Power™, real-time data from machines becomes actionable — enabling smarter decisions and faster response directly at the source of the electrical system.

The agreement includes extended installations across additional machines and systems, supporting key improvements such as:

Energy savings
Predictive maintenance
Factory soft-start
Improved electrical protection
Increased uptime and performance

By combining high-speed electrical protection with intelligent software control, BL!XT enables manufacturers to optimize operations while strengthening safety and resilience across production environments.

Scaling from Pilot to Global Potential

The collaboration between BL!XT and Sanmina began with early deployments where BL!XT Zero was implemented on selected machines. These installations quickly demonstrated how real-time electrical monitoring can unlock new insight into machine behavior, operational performance, and energy usage.

With joint evaluation of pilot results, development of new use cases, and continuous collection of proof points, the collaboration is now scaling.

A long-term expansion plan has been outlined with significant potential across Sanmina’s approximately 80 manufacturing facilities globally.

Programmable Power™: Growing value with every installation

One of the key strengths of BL!XT Programmable Power™ is that value increases as deployments expand. When moving from machine to machine, system to system, and facility to facility, a broader operational picture becomes possible — enabling smarter energy management and deeper optimization.

The number of Zero installations now has the potential to exceed 10,000 units, as the partnership continues to grow.

The agreement also includes continued use of BL!XT Zone, the software platform that manages configuration, protection, monitoring, and control. BL!XT Zone plays a central role in enabling scalable rollouts and simplifying deployment across multiple industrial applications.

A new standard for Intelligent Industrial Control Layers

By leveraging real-time machine data, BL!XT and Sanmina are helping set a new standard for how industrial facilities can implement intelligent control layers. This is not just about monitoring — it is about creating a platform for operational improvements that can be deployed rapidly and scaled efficiently.

At BL!XT, we believe software-defined energy is a key enabler for the future of manufacturing: smarter, safer, more efficient, and more sustainable.
