Optical Control Americas, now Nordson, is pleased to announce that it has entered a manufacturers’ representative agreement with Southwest Systems Technology, Inc. Under the agreement, Southwest Systems will provide sales and support for Optical Control’s component counting technology in the states of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana.
“I’ve worked with Southwest Systems on several products over the past 25+ years,” commented Todd O’Neil, VP of Business Development at Optical Control. “They understand the market needs and know their territory better than anyone. We are very excited to bring them on as part of our team, and we look forward to to their contribution for continued market share growth in 2019.”
Southwest Systems Technology specializes in the sales and support of capital equipment, benchtop tools and manufacturing consumables, and its sales engineers are trained in the latest industry processes and technologies. Founded in 1989, the company sells products in both the electronic and semiconductor manufacturing industries.
The CCX.3 X-ray from optical control is a true plug-and-play system that can X-ray ANY size reel in the same cycle time no matter type of component, or how full or empty it is. High speed combined with the best accuracy, it is capable of providing an ROI faster than any other machine. The highlight of the CCX.3 is – there are no libraries required or need for customer input to get started. It’s as simple as plugging in the machine, and start counting.
The machine also can be configured for complete automation, including integrations into other sytems such as automated storage units. Whether this is done by software only, using a loading and unloading unit, or complete integration, is up to the customer in their steps toward industry 4.0.
Scott Fillebrown, Managing Director at Southwest Systems Technology, stated: “Southwest Systems has always only represented companies and products that we would would buy if we were the customer,” stated Scott Fillebrown “Optical Control’s CCX.3 X-ray meets that criteria. The CCX.3 X-ray is the most accurate counting X-ray available in the SMT marketplace. It is easy to program, robust and serviceable, and provides efficient ROI.”
