Federal Electronics, a leader in providing advanced electronic manufacturing services, has enhanced its new production line at its Hermosillo, Mexico facility with the addition of the Mycronic MYPro i50 Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) system. This investment is part of a larger initiative to strengthen the company’s production capacity and quality assurance for customers in aerospace, medical, defense, and industrial sectors.
The Hermosillo operation is a cornerstone of Federal Electronics’ North American manufacturing network, offering a highly skilled workforce, proximity to key customers, and a growing infrastructure to support high-mix, high-complexity assemblies. The new line was designed to increase throughput while maintaining strict quality standards, and the MYPro i50 plays a critical role in achieving that balance.
The MYPro i50 delivers fast, precise inspection through advanced 2D and 3D imaging, ensuring even the smallest defects are detected early in the process. Its flexible programming tools allow for rapid changeovers, reducing downtime in high-mix production environments. Built with intuitive software and powerful hardware, the system excels at inspecting fine-pitch components, complex solder joints, and dense PCB layouts — capabilities essential for Federal Electronics’ demanding customer base.
“Our new Hermosillo line was built with efficiency, flexibility, and uncompromising quality in mind,” said Ed Evangelista, President of Federal Electronics. “The MYPro i50 allows us to inspect with greater precision and speed, ensuring our customers receive reliable products every time.”
The decision to add the MYPro i50 is part of Federal Electronics’ strategy of pairing cutting-edge inspection technology with lean manufacturing principles. By integrating the system within the continuous flow production line, the company can detect and address process variations before they impact yield, ultimately reducing rework, scrap, and lead times.
With the MYPro i50 in place, the Hermosillo facility is positioned to deliver faster throughput, reduced defects, and improved process control—benefits that directly support its aerospace, medical, defense, and industrial customers.
