EMS leaders converge in Anaheim to connect, collaborate, and share ideas at the annual EMS Leadership Summit at #IPCAPEXEXPO. A full day of roundtable discussions and presentations from industry experts ends with a collaborative networking dinner.

Mass production has long been the standard, but High Mix Low Volume Manufacturing (HMLV) is becoming essential for businesses that increasingly need flexibility and precision. In our podcast, blog and video at?https://lnkd.in/gxu8KNtG, we explore how HMLV helps manufacturers create customized solutions, improve efficiency, and compete in industries where adaptability is critical. Amtech CEO Jay Patel explains why more companies are moving away from rigid, high-volume production and adopting AI, automation, and smarter supply chains to set the pace. Join us and learn how HMLV can help you build resilient, future-ready manufacturing strategies that align with the increasing demand for customization. #Manufacturing #HMLV #HighMixLowVolume #Customization #SupplyChain #Automation #Innovation #BuildAmtech #HardwareIsForever

We’re stepping up our quality control game with the integration of an AI-powered Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) system for in-line inspection. This cutting-edge technology is set to revolutionize our high-mix, low-to-medium volume manufacturing by: ? Detecting defects in real-time ?? ? Minimizing scrap & rework ?? ? Reducing setup time ? ? Optimizing process control with AI-driven analytics ?? “Integrating AI-powered AOI into our manufacturing process is more than just an upgrade—it’s a transformation,” says Jay Patel, Amtech’s CEO. “We’re ensuring higher quality, greater efficiency, and the highest reliability for our customers.” At Amtech, we’re not just keeping up with the future of electronics manufacturing—we’re leading it. ?? #AmtechElectrocircuits #AIinManufacturing #Innovation #SmartManufacturing #ElectronicsIndustry #AIpowered

Every business wants to improve in some way or another, but big changes can feel overwhelming. In our podcast, video, and blog at https://lnkd.in/gJxJzw8s, we're talking about how Kaizen in Lean Manufacturing impacts those processes by focusing on small, steady improvements that build momentum over time. Amtech CEO?Jay Patel?breaks down how Kaizen turns continuous improvement into a habit, not just an initiative. We talk about how businesses can start simply through structured programs or daily refinements and why companies that keep evolving stay ahead of the competition. #Kaizen #HardwareIsForever #ProcessImprovement #LeanManufacturing #Lean #BuildAmtech If you want to build a culture where progress happens naturally - and we all are - this episode is for you.

Most businesses are still pushing products based on forecasts, which can create waste, excess inventory, and slow response times. But what if you only produced exactly what’s needed, when it’s needed? That’s the power of a pull system in Lean Manufacturing. In our latest #podcast, #blog, and #video at https://lnkd.in/gMuYt3-a, Amtech CEO Jay Patel breaks down how shifting from a push to a pull system keeps work flowing smoothly. We discuss Kanban, just-in-time inventory, and smarter production strategies that free up resources so you can focus on innovation instead of excess stock. If you’re still operating with a push mentality, it may be time to rethink how your systems work. Join us as we explore the potential. #LeanManufacturing #PullSystem #Efficiency #ContinuousImprovement #Innovation #BuildAmtech
