Europlacer North America had a very strong year in 2011, with a 50% revenue increase in sales over 2010. With market conditions expected to improve next year, Europlacer North America is forecasting another growth year for 2012 and the company is well positioned to gain further market share.
"As we meet with new companies throughout North America, we find engineers and business owners are excited about our unique technology and service capabilities," said John Perrotta, VP of Europlacer North America. "Using Europlacer technology, our customers are uniquely positioned to meet and even exceed tighter demands without making huge capital outlays for new capacity.
At Apex 2012, Europlacer will introduce new tools that increase SMT productivity and expand upon its existing pick and place platform. The company will continue to develop assembly tools designed specifically for high-mix efficiency as demands upon North American EMS companies and OEMs continue to grow.
To support our increased sales in North America, we added several new staff members in 2011, including two customer service employees and a national sales manager. As we penetrate new local markets and generate more sales, we plan to add more employees to the Europlacer North America team in 2012.
