(March 14, 2008) BINGHAMTON, N.Y. — KSR International selected the Genesis GC-120Q placement platform from Universal Instruments to meet objectives for in-house assembly speed and flexibility in a high-volume environment. KSR (Ridgetown, ON, Canada) designs and manufactures electronics modules, controls, and closures for the transportation industry.
As a key part of a strategic manufacturing initiative to bring its high-volume production in-house, KSR surveyed several pick-and-place suppliers, evaluating machine speeds, lowest possible price, and the local service. They required assembly efficiency, process consistency, and overall productivity. KSR selected Universal's GC-120Q platform based on the evaluations.
The GC-120Q provides the throughput capacity for our volume requirements without compromising flexibility, noted Joe Grasso, manufacturing engineer. The Genesis GC-120Q uses fast head technology across a broad component range, allowing manufacturers to achieve throughput and utilization in higher-mix environments.
