Eagle Electronics Increases Direct Imaging Capacity; Reduces Cycle Time

Reading time ( words)

Mike Kalaria, President and CEO of Eagle Electronics of Schaumburg, Illinois announced today that his company has made an additional new investment in direct imaging.

Eagle Electronics has a strong partnership with their supplier Schmoll Maschinen who builds advanced direct imaging equipment.  Eagle has recently purchased their third direct imaging machine from Schmoll which is their MDI-ST XL.  This machine will increase their direct imaging capacity by 30-40%.  It will also play a major role in reducing cycle time for solder mask exposing.

Commenting on this latest investment Mr. Kalaria stated, “Eagle is well positioned for sustained growth as such we must always look at incremental expansion to support our new and existing customer’s needs.  We also like the risk mitigation provided by having more redundancy in our imaging department.  In this equipment we also get another major benefit which is the latest performance improvements.  We essentially can cut our solder mask exposing time in half greatly improving cycle time.  All told we have made an investment which will provide multiple benefits to our customers”

Eagle’s unwavering commitment to meet customer demand and provide the best total value in the industry is once again evident.

This week, the IPC APEX EXPO event has cast a long shadow across the news feeds. No, that’s not the right metaphor. No, not a shadow; shadows are dark. It would be more accurate to say IPC APEX EXPO cast a beam of illumination upon the news feeds for the electronics manufacturing industry. To that end, the APEX EXPO news makes a prominent appearance in this week’s editor’s picks.

It was a bright, sunny California day as IPC APEX EXPO officially opened its doors on Tuesday, Jan. 24 at the San Diego Convention Center. The Technical Conference began on the same day, while the program of standards meetings and professional development courses had been in progress since Saturday, Jan. 21. During the hustle and bustle of the show build-up over the weekend, it was clear to see that so many exhibitors had the confidence to bring so much major equipment and to invest in such spectacular booths to display it.

It was a packed house for two large events at IPC APEX EXPO 2023 on Monday, Jan. 23, as the EMS Leadership Summit was wrapped in the pale veil of caution, meanwhile hundreds more gathered to hear from IPC’s chief economist, Shawn DuBravac. At the EMS summit, the morning presenters from IPC all shared silver linings they saw inside the fading clouds of uncertainty.
