In 2013, we expect another year of double-digit sales growth, led by our continued development in both the electronics manufacturing and contract manufacturing markets thanks to on-going increases in production capabilities within our company and increased demand of our services from customers.
With the addition of several new machines throughout 2012, Count On Tools is continuing to increase our manufacturing and production capabilities while maintaining the consistent quality and reliability our customers have come to expect with our products over the last 21 years.
Currently, we are expanding our STRIPFEEDER .mod system to accommodate a wider range of components. This product has revolutionized the way EMS companies handle prototyping and low-volume, high-mix applications. Our new design allows for quick changeovers between product runs while simplifying the component feeder process and providing significant cost savings.
We will continue to expand our series of low-cost ezLOAD PCB board support systems and our custom nozzle engineering services. We are excited about these new innovations and how they can further assist EMS providers in our industry to cut costs in troubled economic times.
We expect to see continued growth in the industry as electronics companies continue to keep up with a tech-conscious market that demands the latest and greatest in tech products. These products are changing people's lives in how they receive information, communicate, socialize with others, learn, and are entertained. As a manufacturer, we also have seen an increase in companies brining work back into the US.
