Continually Increasing Quality Means Continually Increasing Value

  • FastSMT operates between five and six sigma in a high mix environment! DPM(Defects per Million Opportunities) is consistently below 200. Given the average DPMO of North American EMS companies, according to the bi-annual IPC Quality Survey, is close to 6,000, we believe our results are darn good.
  • Direct Benefits: lower cost of doing business, controlled processes, predictable results.
  • Indirect Benefits: A reduction in our customers’ field failures due to a reduction in rework (due to the thermal shock caused by solder iron touch-up).
