When Experience Makes The Cut
OX3 has over thirty years' experience in business since 1972. This gives our customers the confidence they need in our top-notch services. Experience is why, in 2006, Vicor Corporation, a major power supply manufacturer, sent its team of engineers and purchasing professionals to OX3 Corporation in their search for a semiconductor taping supplier. Vicor's product line includes such items as voltage transformation, pre-regulator and bus converter units. That is pretty sophisticated stuff for the design world of circuit engineering. And that is why their team needed a fast, reliable, and
experienced company providing the interim production packaging.
The program currently underway requires over 1.2 Million components to be placed on twenty-six different carrier tapes and supplied to their waiting production line on a just-in-time basis. OX3 needed to demonstrate a unique ability to catalogue tapes shipped in from overseas, stock, and then monitor inventory levels, which it's industry-standard carrier tape site at
REELpakŪ demonstrated. OX3 needed to demonstrate proper handling of the customer's components ranging from concerns over static electricity to oils from the human hand. Vicor's engineering and buying teams themselves had extensive track records and years of cumulative personal experience in semiconductor handling, which is why OX3 had to prove that it knows the business cold. That's why when Vicor brought OX3 to the table, they could relax in confidence.
OX3's semiconductor handling services are supported by three web sites at
OX3.com for services,
Reelpak.com for carrier tapes, and
Reel.biz for reels, cover tapes and miscellaneous supplies."
