Who are some of your customers? Texas Instruments, Raytheon, Intel, Microchip, Lansdale and Motorola among others.

Does AeTec's PCB assembly have fine pitch and BGA capability? Yes, those are a couple of the technologies we use today. However, AeTec develops whatever technology its customers need.

Can AeTec clean my current inventory of processing trays so that they can be reused in the cleanroom? Yes, AeTec's cleaning and handling process allows you to reuse various types of media including JEDEC trays, clips, wafflepacks, etc. Then they may be re-introduced into a cleanroom environment instead of being repurchased. This means huge cost savings as well as protecting the environment.

What does the future hold for AeTec? The contract manufacturing market is growing 25-30%per year, a trend that is expected to continue. Since its inception in January 1992, AeTec has grown more than 10-fold. Our strategy is to continue offering the broad range of services currently needed by our customers, while vertically integrating those services to encompass everything except product definition and marketing. AeTec's geographical expansion, beginning with our Costa Rica operation, will continue with the purpose of providing regional contract manufacturing capability and capacity in those locations which have an unfilled need.
