Rocket EMS now operates an X Quik II at its new Carson City facility as well as its headquarters in the heart of Silicon Valley.

Director of Engineering at Rocket EMS. “That is why we rely on partnerships with equipment suppliers like VJ Electronix to provide us with technologically advanced equipment.
