News Update … Norcott invest in new high technology surface mount line…

Norcott is pleased to announce that it has placed a purchase order for a brand new high specification surface mount assembly line.

Established in 1997, Norcott Technologies has gained an enviable reputation for providing a class leading contract electronics manufacturing (CEM) service to a broad range of companies and markets in the UK and internationally.

Norcott can provide a class leading service in surface mount assembly, conventional assembly, complete system assembly and bespoke test solutions.

As a result of increasing demand from existing and new customers, Norcott has decided to further expand its surface mount placement capacity by investing in the market leading Europlacer iineo 1 pick and place machine.

Russ Magee (MD) commented….

“As a company that operates in the high technology, value added ‘contract electronics manufacturing’ (CEM) market, it is of paramount importance that we can provide our customers with a facility that was capable of supporting high complexity surface mount technology builds encompassing the latest components.

After extensive research, we opted for the latest iineo-1 surface mount placement machine from Europlacer.

The iineo-1 machine was seen as the right solution for us so that we could increase our output and further enhance our ability to place the latest components – from 01005 to odd shaped connectors”.

The iineo-1 machine is the flagship of Europlacers product range and has won several awards as one of the most flexible machines on the market. With a feeder capacity of 264 x 8mm feeders, placement speeds to approximately 15,000 cph, capability from 01005 through to 50 x 50mm and for devices as high as 35mm tall, the Europlacer iineo-1 has been accepted widely within the UK and Global market as one of the best machines for small to medium batch flexibility.

The new Europlacer iineo-1 will be accompanied by a brand new Speedprint SP710 inline screen printer and TSM A70-82 Reflow Oven.

Combined with automatic handling for loading and unloading, this will give Norcott a very quick and flexible surface mount line to complement our existing surface mount capability in both technology and capacity.
