Previous Supply
Almost all plants that have installed an automated system have started with the hand tools at low volumes and then moved the hand tools into a rework area once automated systems are brought on line. Alternatively the plant has moved straight into the automated production line systems and used the portable tools for rework or supplementary on-line testing.

For full details of our range of plant tools contact our helpline.
