CE3S will exhibit at two upcoming SMTA Expo & Tech Forum events in Florida. The company will participate in the SMTA Tampa Bay Expo & Tech Forum on November 10, 2026, in St. Petersburg, and the SMTA Space Coast Expo & Tech Forum on November 12, 2026, in Melbourne.
At both events, CE3S will team up with Ideal-tek; Ideal-tek is a Swiss manufacturer of high-precision hand tools, including tweezers, cutters, pliers, and scissors. Founded in 1964 and headquartered in Balerna, Switzerland, the company serves industries such as medical device manufacturing, watchmaking, electronics, and life sciences. The joint exhibits will give attendees an opportunity to learn more about high-quality precision tools and production supplies designed to support accuracy, efficiency and reliability across electronics assembly, inspection and rework operations.
As part of the collaboration, CE3S and Ideal-tek will offer attendees an opportunity to participate in a giveaway featuring a high-precision tweezer kit. Visitors will also have access to an exclusive discount code for use at www.productionsupplystore.com, CE3S’s online destination for production tools, supplies and equipment.
The collaboration highlights the importance of dependable, application-specific tools in today’s electronics manufacturing environments. From delicate component handling and precision assembly to inspection and rework, selecting the right tools can help manufacturers improve process consistency, protect sensitive components and support efficient production workflows.
In addition to exhibiting at both events, CE3S will sponsor the after-expo networking social and refreshment break at the SMTA Space Coast Expo & Tech Forum. The sponsorship reflects the company’s commitment to supporting industry engagement, technical education and opportunities for electronics manufacturing professionals to connect and exchange ideas.
“SMTA’s regional events provide an excellent opportunity to connect directly with electronics manufacturers and better understand the challenges they face on the production floor,” said Amanda Smeltz, VP of Commercial Growth & Strategy. “We’re excited to team up with Ideal-tek at both Tampa Bay and Space Coast to highlight precision tools that support demanding manufacturing applications. The tweezer kit giveaway and exclusive Production Supply Store discount are additional ways for us to engage with attendees, while our sponsorship at Space Coast demonstrates our continued commitment to the electronics manufacturing community.”
