PDR, a leading manufacturer of BGA rework systems, test, and X-ray inspection systems since 1985, has announced its 15-year partnership with ACI Technologies as a Demonstration and Technology Center partner for its rework systems.
Dave White, president of PDR, stated, “The American Competitiveness Institute (ACI) is a special place where standards training, specialized labs and equipment accessibility, engineering services and a wide range of technologies to include PDR Focused Infrared Rework Systems are made available to address complex electronics manufacturing issues. ACI’s easy access from the Philadelphia International Airport also makes the demo center easily accessible for firms to take advantage of the services and technologies that the ACI offers.”
ACI is open for business. Because the ACI factory floor is large in size and capable of both the distancing of guests and the strict enforcement of mask protocols, the demonstration center has remained operational during COVID, offering on-site demonstrations of machines and equipment from industry-leading manufacturers.
