The new SMT lines have high -precision panasonic printers and advanced investment machines, supported by smart feeders and barcods to bar codes. Incap declares in a press release that the upgrade has enabled British installation to consolidate four more efficient and more flexible lines, thus improving production flow and reducing operational costs.
“This investment strengthens our capacity to support the current and future demand for customers while improving operational efficiency,” said Jamie Maughan, director general of Intap Electronics UK, in the press release. “We have also signed a new 10 -year lease for our establishment, which reflects our long -term commitment to our customers, our employees and the region.”
According to the company, the improved SMT lines have increased the overall production capacity by more than 55%. They have also led to quality improvements, including a 49% reduction in defects in the past year. In addition, the new lines can manage larger PCB sizes and allow better data collection to support the future integration of the ERP system.
