The recently purchased data platform supports our engineers even better in choosing certain components during the hardware development process. All products are checked for compliance with the applicable REACH and RoHS legislation, among other things.
Not only powerful car manufacturers are experiencing shortages of electronic components. We, too, feel that the strong upswing in the market is increasing the scarcity in the components market.
The inline laser marker now applies the unique serial number to the PCB. The available capacity at our SMD machines is eagerly used for placing additional SMD components.
Wireless charging has been around for a while, although we do not immediately think about it. For consumer applications, 'wireless charging' has gradually become commonplace and its use in industrial and automotive applications can therefore no longer be ignored. At this moment, E.D.&A. is applying wireless charging to a new development of a control unit with touch display.
This month E.D.&A. celebrates its 40th anniversary. 'A big party for E.D.&A.'s fortieth anniversary is not yet on the program in view of the corona measures, but there is reason enough to celebrate', echoes Gert D'Handschotter, owner and managing director at E.D.&A. Even in these strange times, we at E.D.&A. did not sit still. Our company building was doubled in size to 8.000 m². This was necessary to steer our growth in the right direction and to create sufficient space for all our (new) colleagues and additional machine lines.
Do you already bike to/from work? Or have you always wanted to try this? Especially for this, the '#ikfietsnaarhetwerk' week (I bike to work) is organized from June 14th-June 18th. Also for all home workers, so no excuse :-).
To manage our growth, we have invested in new machinery for an additional SMD line. The installation will take place as soon as the new building is completed in Q2 2021. The heart of the new SMD line consists of the NXT III from Fuji.
