Universal Celebrates 15-year Anniversary with Hitachi
November 12, 2004 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
Binghamton, N.Y.—Universal Instruments has celebrated 15 years of its OEM agreement with Hitachi High Technologies (HHT) to market the 4797 HSP high-speed, turret-style placement machine.
Heinz Dommel, manager of the Systems Division at Universal Instruments, says, "1989 marked the release of the first computer virus, cold fusion and the first successful tracking of an asteroid by radar. That perspective shows how rapidly technology has changed over the last decade and a half. We have also evolved the 4797 HSP significantly since that time, but the partnership between our two companies has delivered consistent and tangible value to Universal, HHT and our customers."
Since 1989, Universal has distributed over 1500 HSP machines and acted as the catalyst for continuous enhancements to the original platform. These have led directly to the latest high-speed placement machine to use HHT's technology, the 4797L HSP.
