“Mexico is one of the most dynamic and rapidly expanding electronics manufacturing markets in the Americas,” said Craig Brown, Europlacer Americas Sales Director. “By partnering with Quiptech, we’re not just expanding our footprint—we’re bringing world-class High-Mix technology and local, responsive support directly to the manufacturers who are driving that growth.”
“We are delighted and excited to have Europlacer on our team,” said John Tobin, General Manager for Quiptech, “I have known Craig Brown personally for over 25 years, and together we bring great energy and experience to this partnership between Europlacer and Quiptech in the Mexican market. Our Quiptech team is extremely enthusiastic and looks forward to offering our customers the Europlacer Screen Printer brand, which truly competes with other recognized brands in terms of speed, performance, quality, ROI, and reliability. We are also very excited to enter the world of SMT placement for the first time. With our strong experience in electronics manufacturing equipment and Europlacer’s leadership in high-mix and XL production environments, we are confident this collaboration will bring tremendous value and new opportunities to our customers in Mexico.”
