This episode of EMSNOW On Tour with in4ma, recorded in a hotel in Timișoara, Romania, begins with some background on the electronics industry in Romania and key historical events from Timișoara. The tour visited Kimball Electronics Romania and Systronics/Cicor in an area that includes a number of other EMS. The discussion covers the reasons and advantages of this region; the sectors represented, level of automation, how companies save energy, and what stood out about these two specific facilities as they provide competitive advantage to their customers. For example, they were especially impressed with the focus on changeover speeds to increase overall capacity, and the quality of the supply base. Dieter also shares updates to his market research data on Romania, making this a must-hear podcast for anyone interested in the European EMS industry.
