Second-Source IC Programming Partner UK

When a second source makes sense

Relying on one programming station or one supplier puts production at risk. We can sit alongside your current arrangement, so you do not need to move existing work to use us.

Overflow

Your in-house programmers or main supplier are fully loaded and a build date is at risk.

Equipment downtime

A programmer is out of action and parts are waiting.

Line-stop situations

24/7 emergency support for line-stop situations. Call 01604 491107.

Supply continuity

A second route for programming on a product you cannot afford to have waiting.

Parts back on reel

Devices returned on tape and reel, to your exact pitch and reel specification, ready for placement.
