Poly Electronics LLC is excited to announce a transformative, seven-figure investment in its manufacturing capabilities with the addition of a second, state-of-the-art Surface Mount Technology (SMT) assembly line. Scheduled to be fully operational by August 1, 2025, this expansion will dramatically increase production speed, flexibility, and quality—delivering significant benefits to Poly Electronics’ customers.
The new SMT line will feature two Yamaha YSM pick-and-place machines, each capable of placing up to 90,000 components per hour (CPH), for a combined maximum throughput of 180,000 CPH. This upgrade more than doubles Poly Electronics’ manufacturing capacity, ensuring faster turnaround and even greater precision for clients.
Customer Benefits
With this investment, Poly Electronics’ customers will enjoy:
Shorter Lead Times:
Lead times will be reduced from the current 12 weeks to as little as 4 weeks by Q4 2025, allowing customers to respond more quickly to market demands and reduce their inventory costs.
Enhanced Product Quality:
Advanced inspection and quality control systems—including AI-powered 3D inspection and X-ray/CT scan technologies—ensure every product meets the highest standards of reliability and performance.
Greater Flexibility and Capacity:
The new SMT line increases production capacity and supports a wider range of product types and volumes, giving customers more options and scalability for their projects.
Improved Traceability and Consistency:
State-of-the-art automation and data-driven processes provide complete traceability and consistent, repeatable results, reducing the risk of defects and ensuring peace of mind.
