Universal Instruments has announced the appointment of Zetech to support its sales and service operations in South Africa, in a move that is part of the former’s stated goal of augmenting its own sales force in all key territories in order to strengthen its customer-focused infrastructure.
With head offices in Johannesburg, Zetech is one of South Africa’s most comprehensive suppliers of production automation to the electronics and associated industries. Products range from PCB assembly, automatic optical and x-ray inspection, reflow solder, screen printing, precision liquid dispensing, cable preparation, robotic soldering and robotic assembly as well as cleaning systems. Under the new long-term agreement with Universal, Zetech will assume sales and service responsibility of the company’s flexible SMD assembly and insertion mount equipment to the South African market, including the Genesis-Lightning high-speed chip placement, AdVantis platforms.
“We will work closely with Zetech to ensure we deliver increased customer value in all our long-term collaborative sales and support initiatives and that customers enjoy the highest possible standards of service,” said Ray Doherty, Universal Instruments’ European sales manager.
