EMS doubles SMT manufacturing line
Electronic Manufacturing Solutions (EMS) recently installed its second SMT line from Essemtec. The SMT line consists of a Tucano screen printer, Paraquda SMT machine with Jet valve dispenser, conveyors and an upgraded Zonda oven. EMS is also upgrading its original RO400FC reflow oven to a Zonda, resulting in two identical lines for the company, allowing production to be doubled.
Steve Pollock, Vice President, Essemtec USA, commented: “EMS is a great customer and we are so pleased to continue this partnership with the installation of their second line. We look forward assisting them with their future growth and success.”
According to Production Manager Clayton Hornsby, EMS purchased its first Essemtec equipment in May 2011 after reviewing the product line on display at the IPC APEX EXPO. “We bought an entire line (Tucano screen printer, Paraquda SMT machine, inspection conveyor and an RO400FC reflow oven). This setup has been the heart of our operation here and continues to be today."
