Southampton, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/07/2016 -- Since 2000, IMET Corporation has established itself as a leader in design, prototyping and manufacturing. In particular, electronics manufacturers trust IMET Corporation for high-quality, efficient printed circuit board assembly (PCBA). The company has earned a reputation for uniqueness due to its championship of nearshoring practices as well as its ability to offer innovative solutions. One such solution is its four-foot circuit board, suitable for any company looking for innovative ways to introduce lighting.

Most circuit board assembly companies offer boards in sizes only up to two feet, and sometimes only 18 inches in length. For customers who want to use circuit boards for larger applications, options have been limited to find a US-based resource. With the rise of LED lighting, using larger boards has now become a popular option because it reduces the points of failure over multiple boards connected together. IMET's four-foot boards are perfect for customers seeking LED lighting and commercial lighting solutions.

Circuit board assembly takes place in IMET Corporation's 15,000 square foot facility in Southampton, PA, a suburb of Philadelphia. With seven engineers on staff and a locally-based manufacturing process, IMET delivers accuracy and flexibility. Their three automated lines are capable of surface mount and through-hole processing, lead and lead-free processing, and four-head and two-head pick and place machines. Furthermore, IMET is able to mount components down to 0.3mm lead pitch. They also provide environmentally safe board cleaning.

Southampton, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/15/2014 -- Selecting a contract electronic manufacturing source traditionally has involved a search overseas for the right company, often in China or elsewhere in the Far East, and an opportunity to enjoy savings in manufacturing costs once the CM had proven capable of providing the necessary quality and consistency of electronic products. But that scenario is rapidly changing as increasing labor and shipping costs are rendering the use of Far East CMs less attractive and a "Made in USA" approach is resonating positively in all sectors of the global economy.

Of course, many original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) returning to the US have grown accustomed to the profitability possible by means of offshore production and are not considering a return to in-house manufacturing in the US. They would rather not deal with the overhead and capital equipment investments needed for electronics assembly.

Many electronics manufacturers are remaining lean by working with CMs on an as-needed basis. Such an arrangement provides considerable savings by sharing a CM's overhead and equipment amortization equitably among its customers. If working with a CM makes sense, the following considerations should be reviewed as part of establishing a successful relationship with a CM based in the US.

Signing an NDA
Working with a new CM places intellectual property (IP) at risk, whenever another company is allowed to share one company's product and technology secrets. This is most easily solved at the outset of a business relationship by having all parties sign a protective nondisclosure agreement (NDA) upfront - before serious talks begin -- to help establish the trust needed for a successful relationship with a new CM. Such NDA forms are available on the Internet, and may also be available for download from the vendor's website. In addition, NDAs prepared by attorneys can cover all the scenarios and circumstances that are not adequately treated by stock forms.

Given the rapid evolution of electronics technology, experience in manufacturing of specific sectors of electronic industries, such as medical or military electronics, can be invaluable for a CM. Selecting a contract manufacturing source with little or no engineering or production experience in an area of interest can usually only lead to problems. At the very least, some time will be required for a CM without proper experience to become sufficiently knowledgeable about a particular area. Any CMs being considered for a particular area of interest should be qualified by providing publicly available information about pertinent jobs completed in that area of interest. A well-written letter of introduction from a CM can be quite helpful in learning about that CM, but it is only a starting point. Attached to the letter should be a brochure and equipment list from the CM, with model numbers, manufacturers' names, and specifications that may be pertinent to a particular production job.

The CM's website can also be revealing, since it often provides useful details on a company's history and philosophy. If clients are mentioned on the site, it would be wise to consult with them for references. A CM's social media blogs can also be helpful for providing updates, current events, and accomplishments of interest.

Take a tour
Vendors under serious consideration should be prescreened through a tour of each of their contract manufacturing facilities. This will be well worth the serious amounts of time and travel involved, since it presents the opportunity of observing actual manufacturing conditions. It provides a chance to see the actual product and test equipment that will be used for a particular job. And if special equipment is needed for a particular task, will a CM be willing to make the necessary investment and have it operational at the time the job will be needed? A visit to a CM also provides the opportunity to assess the firm's quality-control (QC) equipment, since this equipment will play an important role in ensuring defect-free contract electronic manufacturing assemblies. A plant tour also provides a chance to meet a CM's executives and engineers who will be responsible for a particular job, and to judge confidence levels in these personnel who may very well become partners for a particular production job or series of jobs.

Be specific in expectations
In the process of searching for a CM, once the candidates have been narrowed to a final three or less, they should each receive a request for quote (RFQ) containing a Gerber file and a bill of materials (BOM) for the job. These items, plus a circuit schematic diagram, if available, are required for preparation of an accurate electronics assembly quote. For quotes involving engineering design and development, additional details will be needed. To avoid misunderstandings, an RFQ should clearly state job requirements and deadlines. Candidates for a job should know when the RFQs should be returned and how soon after a purchase order (PO) is issued that they can expect delivery.

Keeping a relationship going
Contract manufacturing companies typically do not seek "one-and-done" relationships. Rather, the hope is for a long-lasting relationship that is built on trust and confidence. Such a relationship is not often built on the basis of low price alone. Instead, that relationship develops as a CM fulfills a client's expectations for meeting and exceeding performance, consistency, and reliability levels job after job, with pricing that is fair and reasonable.

As an example, Innovative Manufacturing for Electronic Technology (IMET) Corp. provides all-inclusive or a la carte product development solutions to transform new product concepts into reality.

Southampton, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/18/2014 -- OEMs considering outsourcing of PCB assembly should make a priority of visiting potential contract manufacturers and verifying their equipment capabilities. Not heeding that advice could result in laggard deliveries of PCBs assembled with older, slower and limited output equipment. Or the reverse could occur – where high-speed machines are inefficiently employed when low throughputs are required -- an expensive equivalent of driving a Ferrari to the corner store.

Visitors to IMET will see demos of equipment for a wide range of performance targets. We maintain three lines, two of which are semi-automated for low to mid-range placement speeds of up to 5,000 components per hour. When high-volume PCB assembly is required, it takes place on our fully automated line, featuring a 4-head pick and place capable of mounting in excess of 10,000 components per hour and the ability to place 01005/0.3mm pitch components. This high-speed line includes board loader, fully automatic stencil printer with paste inspection, 8-zone reflow oven and board unloader.

In addition to PCB assembly, IMET equipment also covers QA with latest-generation inspection equipment, including Automatic Optical Inspection (AOI), X-ray and high-powered microscopes. We also provide environmentally safe board-cleaning with de-ionized water recycling with Rose testing. In short, IMET is a total resource – not only for assembly PCB, but for every phase of electronic design and engineering.

Southampton, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/22/2014 -- Timothy M. Kelly, a noted telemetry engineering consultant to Fortune 500 firms and former sales executive for an international manufacturer of telemetry systems, has been named Engineering Manager of IMET Corporation, electronic product development and PCB assembly specialists.

In announcing the appointment, CEO Tom Krol disclosed his almost 20-year personal friendship with Kelly, which began when they met at his first job at Aydin Vector in the early nineties. "Kelly's duties will fully involve his administrative as well as his obvious engineering skills in overseeing our staff of seven highly skilled engineers who until now have had scant leadership," the CEO stated.

Krol admitted his pursuit of Kelly began almost a year ago, when a major influx of incoming purchase orders for product development and PCB assembly projects forced him to declare an unprecedented 90-day moratorium in responding to RFQs. "The resulting loss of business made me realize the need for a take-charge guy like Tim," the CEO stated.

Kelly's background includes a consultancy to the telemetry industry, serving clients that included Lockheed, Boeing, Raytheon, Sikorsky and other high-profile companies. He advised each of them on equipment choices and oversaw product development and PCB assembly, as well as installation and training of flight recorders, PCM encoders and system design hardware. Previously, he was a regional sales manager for Zodiac Data Systems, a French manufacturer of telemetry systems. His territory covered northeastern US and all of Canada. A native of Philadelphia, Kelly received his MEE degree from Drexel University.

Southampton, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/24/2014 -- Those close to IMET's Vice President of Operations Brian Dougherty, likens diverting him from his busy schedule to interrupting a runner during a middle of a 5K. This analogy makes perfect sense, considering he runs eight miles, three times a week, while staying dedicated to triathlon training as well.

Dougherty personally oversees the entire back-end of IMET's electronic contract manufacturing business, ensuring that he gets a mental workout along with a physical one. He makes sure the entire team runs efficiently during an order placement. Once a purchase order arrives, he meets with the production teams and purchasing personnel to ensure the components are correctly ordered and ordered at the right price.

Dougherty then meets with IMET's manufacturing personnel to schedule equipment and supervisory manpower that will be dedicated to automated PCB assembly and product development. Other production tasks include quality insurance, AOI (automatic optical inspection), and X-Ray and microscopic checkout. "Two goals are of paramount importance at this stage," Dougherty said. "The first is goal is zero defects and the second one is on-time delivery. Achieve them both, and you have a happy and satisfied customer, but one that will never know the effort we expended."

As Vice President, Dougherty feels that the consistent growth of IMET over the past five years has tested his management skills. "To meet the growing demand for our electronic contract manufacturing, we've invested heavily in equipment, people and our new 15,000 sq. ft. home. Knowing those decisions have paid off, has given our CEO Tom Krol and I a real sense of pride and accomplishment."

Before becoming Vice President of IMET, Brian Dougherty spent 20 years with Franklin Electronic Publishing. Throughout his tenure with that company, he advanced to become Vice President of Worldwide Operations, where he was responsible for developing global electronic contract manufacturing sources. "Amazingly, at IMET I'm now in the reverse position of providing PCB assembly and other contract services to manufacturers."

Southampton, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/24/2014 -- IMET, a company that offers a wide range of product development services, is pleased to announce that their production manager is back from active military duty. IMET's production manager since 2009, Gunnery Sergeant (GySgt) Scott Roxberry, spent the better part of 2013 on deployment in Africa. Coming back from active duty, Roxberry will be trading in his camouflaged uniform in for jeans and a static-free lab coat.

"Talk about being sorely missed, it just wasn't the same around here without Scott," reflects CEO Tom Krol. "As proud as we were to see one of us serving our country on the highest level, we were extremely busy while Scott was away. However, we had the good fortune of a great staff to keep our PCB assembly systems and product development humming during his absence. I assure you, it wasn't easy."

At 38 years of age, GySgt Roxberry was met with a frenetic welcome home from his wife and daughter. He returned to work on February 17th, met by co-workers with hugs, high-fives and "glad-to-see-you-agains," from everyone at IMET's Southampton, PA headquarters.

GySgt Roxberry addressed his homecoming to his co-workers: "It's great being back home and having this job I love waiting for me," he stated. "The Marine's turf is overseeing IMET Corporation's three automated PCB assembly lines, along with myriad other machines and equipment dedicated to product development and electronics engineering.

Southampton, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/30/2013 -- After completing still another record year of growth, IMET Corporation's President Tom Krol remains confident of continued success in 2014 for his electronics contract manufacturing company and now shares that optimism in IMET's year-end forecast. He bases much of his optimism on the trend to "re-shoring"–a term used to describe the ever-growing number of American businesses that have moved their manufacturing back to the United States after discovering that the cost differential of doing contract manufacturing offshore is no longer viable. Patriotism aside, Mr. Krol cites sharply rising foreign workers' incomes and standard of living that no longer make their country a haven for cheap third-world labor. Trans-oceanic shipping costs have greatly increased as well. "Those factors, combined with security issues and the high cost of maintaining supervisory personnel overseas, have caused the great awakening to re-shoring," he stated.

Mr. Krol also sees continued growth for contract manufacturing because original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) remain fearful of a recessionary reappearance and are thus reluctant to expand their workforce or invest in capital equipment ."However, we've learned that automating with latest-generation equipment actually lowers costs through labor-saving efficiency. Equipment delivering optimum quality control also achieves cost savings. That's why we've installed automatic optical inspection (AOI) and x-ray inspection." Mr. Krol also bases a major share of IMET's success on specialization. "Trying to be a multi-provider can confuse the marketplace.

Southampton, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/26/2013 -- IMET Corporation, a contract manufacturer providing electronics engineering services and printed circuit board assembly, has received the 31st annual Manufacturer of The Year Excellence Award by The Greater Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce. The presentation, recognizing the accomplishments and contributions of the region's small businesses, took place at the awards dinner on November 20 in downtown Philadelphia's Crystal Tea Room. In order to qualify for the award, a company must be independently owned and operated, and display excellence and authority in their industry, while not exceeding 100 employees.

Upon hearing the news that his company was to receive this prestigious honor, Tom Krol, President and CEO of IMET said, "Receiving Manufacturer of the Year Award was like getting a standing ovation from the Chamber's more than 5,000 member companies. It has put us in a very special group of people who I've long admired, respected and am especially proud to be associated with. We know that it will give our customers and prospects even greater confidence in our work and contribute to our continued long-term growth."

"We are non-stop busy here at IMET, but we do take time out to remember and celebrate employee birthdays and have occasional barbeques, pizza lunches and of course Christmas dinner," Krol stated. "This has helped us become close and work together to get the job always done right the first time." IMET's three assembly lines produce a myriad of electronic products that diagnose and treat medical issues, enrich users' lives and contribute to home—and homeland—security.

Southampton, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/10/2013 -- When a busload of students from Eisenhower Science & Technology Leadership Academy arrived at IMET's front door the morning of October 2, its 30 passengers expected nothing more than another boring plant tour. Little did those 12 to 13-year-olds from this Norristown, PA charter school know they were in for a real surprise. After donning electrostatic-proof lab coats, they learned of the numerous rewarding career opportunities in electronics contract manufacturing. They were then divided into two rotating groups – one portion getting introduced to IMET's vast array of automated and robotic machinery used in contract electronics manufacturing, while the others remained behind to test their skills on a new and remarkable pinball game: "Wizard of Oz", with the sights, sounds and songs of the original movie. The amusement device houses 56 printed circuit boards assembled in IMET's 15,000 sq. ft. facility in Southampton, PA. The kids couldn't get enough of The Wizard – that is, until the pizzas arrived. All agreed it was their best school tour ever.

The tour was arranged by Delaware Valley Industrial Resource Center in celebration of National Manufacturing Day. Joe Houldin, founder and CEO of DVIRC, maintains that one of the greatest challenges faced by U.S. manufacturing is the gap between the opportunities available and the current workforce. "The industry is saying we need people and we will pay people very well," he states, "but we're struggling with the quality and kind of education currently being taught. The challenge is that schools are not producing students with technically applied skills. As manufacturing technology advances, the entry-level positions now require more skills, making the bottom rung of the ladder much higher than it's ever been. The student tour of IMET's contract electronics manufacturing facilities gave students the opportunity to learn more about high-tech manufacturing and the career paths now available to them."
