Key-Tech Electronic System’s Z:LEX YSM20, considered to be the best in its class, has operating mounting speeds of 90,000 chips per hour. With a built-in smart recognition system, reducing operator input, it can place unconventionally shaped components accurately and efficiently without compromising on quality.
In the year where Key-Tech Electronic Systems celebrates its coming of age, with a very successful 21st anniversary, the two company directors, Jim Spence and David Weir, decided to move forward with their top end clients by purchasing not one, but two of these elite machines. The modularity of the Z:LEX YSM20 perfects Key-Tech Electronic System’s ability to deliver high speed assemblies of multi-sized components on a by-far greater scale, now enhancing customers’ demanding turnarounds. From miniaturised components such as the 03015 (0.3mmx0.15mm) to large assemblies, Key-Tech Electronic Systems now offers the electronic and electromechanical industry a competitive and leading edge flexibility and versatility to meet the demanding requirements of today’s marketplace.
Jim Spence, Financial Director shares “The company started with just 4 employees in 1993 with a vision to fill identified gaps and today, 21 years later, we’ve organically grown the business to a level where we can comfortably meet the needs of major players in this industry.
Our strength, from the beginning, was always our unique ability to understand, create and design new processes for our clients, alongside maintaining modern systems of manufacturing, with our current brand new facilities”.
Key-Tech Electronic Systems, with its motivated management and staff, today work together to deliver benchmarking value and quality to its customers, alongside continued capital investment the company is looking forward to a further 21 years of successful expansion.
Key-Tech Electronic Systems supplies both small SMEs and High Turnover clients within the Oil & Gas, Subsea, Nuclear, Military, Medical, Security, Scientific, Industrial and Retail markets.
