AWS invests in AOI equipment

According to the company, the purchase is part of a wider strategy for interchangeability and standardisation across its sites. Jamie Maughan – AWS Group Operations Director commented: “ In total we have spent over £150k, but we see it as a real investment, our customers demand more and more reliability and this new equipment offers us the latest in camera technology, providing greater functionality in identifying issues with component to PCB as well as normal polar and component ID checks". "Customers are demanding more data and this equipment provides full SPC reports and controls. We have replaced all our AOI machines with Testworks Solutions AOI, which means we have state of the art technology and interchangeability, especially when it comes to offline programming.”
