Matric Group has made a major investment in advanced dual-lane surface-mount technology (SMT) manufacturing at its Seneca, Pennsylvania headquarters, expanding domestic capacity for high-reliability, high-mix electronics production.
The Panasonic NPM-GH platform anchors Matric Group’s dual-lane SMT line, delivering high-speed, high-accuracy placement with advanced vision alignment. Integrated EKRA screen printing, Koh Young inspection, and YJLink automation support closed- loop process control and smooth, reliable material flow across the line, also a Heller vacuum reflow oven.
“This investment reflects our long-standing commitment to equipping U.S. manufacturers with the most advanced production technology available,” said Nagy Bayoumi, President of Atlantech USA. “Matric Group’s decision to deploy the Panasonic NPM-GH demonstrates their leadership in domestic electronics manufacturing and their dedication to providing customers with the highest levels of quality, speed, and reliability. We are proud to have partnered with Matric Group on this milestone.”
The expansion reinforces Matric Group’s continued investment in U.S.-based manufacturing in Pennsylvania, while supporting customers across the full product lifecycle through engineering, PCB assembly, cable and harness assembly, box builds, and aftermarket services.
