May 2, 2023 | Silicon MountainEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Silicon Mountain, a leading electronic manufacturing company, has installed a Universal Instruments Radial 88HTi state-of-the-art radial insertion machine. The acquisition strengthens Silicon Mountain's production capabilities and enables the company to meet increasing demand.
The sale was liaised by Alan Siebenthall of Kirby & Demarest, who stated: “I am proud to support Silicon Mountain’s continued growth with the Universal Instruments Radial 88HTi. Through hole technology continues to flourish and the Radial 88HTi is a robust platform to address the industry.”
The Radial 88HTi offers consistently high throughput regardless of component type, with single-, dual-, triple-, and quad-span insertion variants. Lead span capability up to 10mm virtually eliminates tedious manual assembly requirements to improve throughput, product quality and output per floor space, while reducing associated labor costs and time requirements to provide greater returns.
The Radial 88HTi delivers exceptional flexibility with more than 100 available inputs on the expandable sequencer. An intuitive operator interface that is common with other Generation 88HT equipment offers easy operation, diagnostics, data management and a graphical product editor.
“This acquisition represents a significant investment in our manufacturing capabilities and will enable us to better serve our customers with high-quality electronic components,” states Clint Roehr, Project Manager at Silicon Mountain.
Silicon Mountain provides a wide range of services, whether it is prototyping for startups or high-volume manufacturing. Regardless of the service, the company aims for high quality and quick turnaround.
