Altus Sees Rising Demand for Scienscope X Ray Solutions Across Europe
October 18, 2023 | Altus GroupEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Altus Group, a leading distributor of capital equipment in the UK and Ireland, has announced growing interest in Scienscope X-ray inspection systems from electronics manufacturers in Europe. Leveraging a six-year partnership, Altus and Scienscope have seen increased demand as manufacturers look for innovative imaging solutions.
To meet rising market demand, Scienscope has expanded its global operations, including new investments across Europe, to provide enhanced service capabilities and rapid delivery to customers. This includes boosting its expertise by welcoming Patrick Kossik, a recent graduate of the University of Polytechnic Timisoara, as a new service engineer to further strengthen support capabilities across the region.
In addition, Scienscope has established a dedicated 120 sq. m. office space, and 150 sq. m. warehouse in Timisoara, Romania, with a complete inventory of its X-ray inspection systems and component management solutions. This enables rapid delivery and support across the region for both prospective customers and existing users. The company will also be launching a new website soon to further improve customer engagement.
Joe Booth, CEO of Altus said: "Scienscope's expanded European presence and new service engineer allows us to deliver even better service and support to our customers as they scale.
"Having a complete inventory of Scienscope systems readily available on a European level provides a significant advantage, allowing us to promptly deliver solutions across the region. The new demo room also gives our customers the opportunity to experience first-hand the full spectrum of capabilities offered by Scienscope’s X-Ray inspection solutions in Europe.”
As component shortages drive more electronics manufacturers to optimise their supply chains and increasing miniaturisation makes inspection more critical, Scienscope's expanded European operations will allow Altus to deliver timely X-ray inspection solutions that meet customer needs. With intuitive software, automation and flexibility, Scienscope's systems simplify quality inspections and component management, helping manufacturers focus on production efficiency.
