Helios Technologies Inc. Announces Strategic Partnership to Enhance Product Development and Market Readiness
Helios Technologies Inc. has announced that its operating subsidiary, i3 Product Development (i3PD), has been designated an Authorized Partner of STMicroelectronics. This collaboration aims to streamline development processes and accelerate time-to-market for customers by integrating i3PD’s engineering expertise with STMicroelectronics’ advanced semiconductor technology.
As an Authorized Partner, i3PD will now leverage STMicroelectronics’ extensive product portfolio within its engineering and design operations. i3PD’s facilities, which include CNC machining, precision painting, 3D printing, and sheet metal fabrication, alongside a dedicated electronics lab, are set to enhance the design and integration capabilities for customers utilizing STMicroelectronics’ products.
“i3PD’s deep understanding of the ST portfolio and specialized expertise are pivotal in addressing design challenges and expediting development timelines,” stated Alessandro Maloberti, Partner Ecosystem Director at STMicroelectronics. “Our rigorous review process has allowed us to build a robust network of skilled partners who can significantly boost customer innovation with advanced technologies and comprehensive services.”
In addition to i3PD’s new partnership, another Helios entity, Enovation Controls, already incorporates STMicroelectronics’ semiconductor chips in its products, notably in the OpenView S70 and OpenView S50 displays. This integration has been instrumental in enhancing product performance.
“We are excited to deepen our collaboration with STMicroelectronics,” said Lee Wichlacz, President of Electronics at Helios. “Their semiconductor solutions align perfectly with our goal of delivering superior products. The inclusion of STMicroelectronics’ chips has already elevated our product offerings. We are proud to have i3PD join the ranks of STMicroelectronics’ authorized partners, further driving innovation and development for our shared customers.”
STMicroelectronics, a leading global semiconductor supplier, established the ST Partner Program to expedite customer development by connecting with companies offering complementary products and services. The program ensures that all partners meet stringent quality and competency standards through regular evaluations.
Both i3PD and Enovation Controls will showcase their latest innovations, powered by STMicroelectronics’ technology, at the Equip Expo in Louisville, Kentucky, from October 15-18.
