Local passives supplier returns to form

29 October 2008 Passive Components

Following Supprestech’s takeover of local passive component manufacturer Supprescraft’s product range in May this year, the company has been hard at work to make itself a force to be reckoned with in the industry.

The company has streamlined its production lines and resituated and revamped its quality control section, including an upgrade of overall standards and its test and measuring equipment in particular. A quality assurance laboratory has also been set up and ongoing type approval tests have commenced, which has led to the ongoing identification and rectification of materials, processes and methods to produce a quality product meeting world standards.

A new and enthusiastic workforce with extensive on the job training has resulted in improved quality and effective output, with a new quality controller who has years of experience in the control and monitoring of the manufacture of electronic components.

Focus has been placed on redeveloping and increasing output of the items with the strongest market demand, namely X and Y Capacitors, reactive power supply capacitors, high-energy varistors up to 40 kA, EMI solutions, toroidal inductors, transformers, surge protection devices and subcontracted winding, wire cutting and terminating cable assemblies and encapsulation.

Supprestech also says that, in addition to its newly streamlined internal processes, the current exchange rate makes its pricing very competitive.
