STI buys Siplace machine

The new machine will be used by STI's newly acquired High Volume PCBA Contract Electronics Manufacturing business. Since acquiring the new business, STI renamed it STI-Philippines. The business has a manufacturing facility is based in Cebu. STI-Philippines’ first experience with Siplace was with the Siplace D-series. "The decision to purchase the Siplace D1, D2 and D4 POE (Pre-Owned Equipment) solution was a strategic one, as it provided us with the required specifications in running our production line while maintaining an exceptionally favourable price-performance ratio, therefore ensuring a faster return on investment," said Lyndon M. Guba, Manufacturing Manager of STI-Philippines. "Based on this strategic decision, we started out with using the Silace D-series some time ago. We are extremely impressed with the exceptional working conditions and quality of our Siplace D-Series. This, together with the excellent partnership with the Siplace team, convinced us to continue our relationship with Siplace by investing in the Siplace X-series. We trust in Siplace's support, advanced technology and the quality of Siplace machines," said Guba. The Siplace X-Series is already equipped to handle 01005 components.   The Siplace Setup Center 4.0 is used by STI-Philippines in conjunction with the Siplace X-series for part verification.
