AEi Ships First Camera Module Alignment, Assembly and Test Units from New North American Facility

WILMINGTON, Mass.--(EON: Enhanced Online News)--Automation Engineering Incorporated (AEi), a global supplier of high-precision, flexible automation systems, is shipping camera module alignment, assembly, and test stations (CMAT) from its recently expanded North American manufacturing operations. Global market demand for AEi’s CMAT stations continues to grow, driven by demand for cameras in portable devices such as mobile phones and PDAs, automotive safety systems, and for industrial products such as borescopes and endoscopes. The CMAT stations assemble camera modules with AEi’s proprietary 5- and 6-degree of freedom active alignment, enabling much higher quality camera images and performance than available with alternate assembly methods.

“Our flexible automation platforms enable OEMs to quickly respond to shifting market economics and take advantage of rapidly changing opportunities.”

According to AEi Chief Operating Officer Justin Roe, “Our flexible automation platforms enable OEMs to quickly respond to shifting market economics and take advantage of rapidly changing opportunities.

“When used as product development platforms, AEi’s flexible automation stations also support faster time to market for OEMs, as new products move from development to full production volumes across a global supply chain. The transition from development to production is practically seamless as manufacturing processes from development are migrated to manufacturing facilities with little or no modification, Roe concluded.
