August 4, 2015 | Scienscope InternationalEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Scienscope International, a complete inspection solutions provider, is pleased to announce that Microboard Processing Inc. (MPI) has purchased a Scienscope X-Scope 6000 X-ray system. MPI, a 33-year old, woman-owned EMS provider, installed the unit at its Seymour, CT facility.

The quick process feedback, sharply focused images and easy-to-use software has made this machine a big hit with the engineering team!”
