Nordson MATRIX, a division of the Nordson Corporation, has sold its 1,000th AXI system. Spread across a wide range of markets and geographies, this milestone establishes the company's position as the market leader in its chosen field.
To celebrate this event and in line with the Nordson IMPACT policy of sharing success by giving back to the communities in which employees live and work, two donations of €1,000 each were made to the Ambulantes Kinderhospiz and the Krebs bei Kindern. These Munich-based charities provide care and support to children and young adults and their families, helping them to cope with terminal and life-threatening illnesses.
Greg Wood, Managing Director of Nordson MATRIX, commented, "This achievement would not have been accomplished without the commitment of our very dedicated global team, and I thank them for their tremendous contribution to the company's success. I was also delighted that two very deserving local charities could benefit as part of the Nordson IMPACT philanthropy program. The work they do is vital to the community, and I was pleased to be able to present them with these donations."

The Performance-enhancing Benefits of Flexible Circuit Technology
02/05/2026 | Joe Fjelstad, Verdant ElectronicsFlexible circuits have been around much longer than most folks realize. My friend, Dr. Ken Gilleo, unquestionably a technology forensics genius, unearthed a British patent issued to Albert Hansen of Germany just after the turn of the last century (Figure 1), which we can easily recognize today as an ancestral flexible circuit. We owe his creativity a great deal of credit for laying the foundation for countless electronic products in use today that employ flex circuits.
Learning With Leo: The Disappearing Manufacturing Engineer
02/04/2026 | Leo Lambert -- Column: Learning With LeoManufacturing engineers are the firefighters of the manufacturing process, but as the industry changes the roles of the manufacturing engineer and manufacturing facilities export their manufacturing offshore, what happens to the function, viability, and knowledge of the manufacturing engineer? Where design engineering was known as a profession, manufacturing engineering was known as a job, not a career path. Although I was disappointed about that at the time, now I look back and wonder about the truth of that statement.
Learning with Leo: The Cost of Training on Skills and Knowledge Development
01/07/2026 | Leo Lambert -- Column: Learning With LeoThe ability to manufacture electronic products requires specific skills and knowledge, which have traditionally been developed through on-the-job experience and training. These experiences and training programs are expensive to implement, yet they are necessary to meet customer demands and remain competitive in the marketplace. Today, manufacturers, including government contractors, rely on industrial specifications in the design, fabrication, and assembly of electronic products.
