SMT Thermal Discoveries further expands its presence in Asia and opens the branch Suzhou SMT Machine Co., Ltd. in Suzhou. The industrial park, which was built in 1994, and the city´s good transport links, quickly transformed Suzhou into one of the country´s emerging cities. The ideal starting point for expanding the involvement in China.

SMT set up an office with conference facilities and a showroom. Here, customers and interested parties can convince themselves on site of the innovative systems in the area of thermal processes, such as vacuum soldering systems and reflow soldering systems. Lucky Xia, Process and Sales Engineer, leads the team of seven employees covering the areas of service, sales, administration and process management.

"This is another milestone for SMT. With our branch in Suzhou, we can respond quickly and directly to the needs of our Asian customers and the trends in the Asian market", says Florian Graf, Head of Sales and Marketing at SMT.

The official opening of the branch took place during an event with long-standing customers and employees.
