San Marcos, CA – June 2026 – Metal Etch Services, Inc. has opened a new Midwest facility, Metal Etch Services Motor City, located in Detroit, Michigan, expanding its reach to better support customers across the central and eastern United States.

The move is a direct response to growing demand outside of Southern California, giving customers in the Midwest and East Coast a closer, more responsive option.

The new facility is equipped with advanced technology, including a Watt NEVIS stencil laser platform – the first of its kind installed in the US –as well as a Watt SE12PRO system for laser inspection, marking, and welding. The site will also support Metal Etch Services’ next-generation NanoPearl coating process.

To maintain the level of service customers have come to expect, CAD design and customer support will continue to be handled from the company’s California headquarters. This allows the team to expand production capacity without losing the hands-on collaboration and responsiveness that built its reputation.

Founded in 2005 by a group of industry veterans, Metal Etch Services has long focused on combining technical expertise with a strong customer-first approach. With roots in stencil and screen manufacturing dating back to 1983, the team continues to invest in new equipment, training, and process development to keep pace with evolving industry needs.

Metal Etch Services provides laser-cut stencils for PCB assembly, a full range of screen options, and precision thin metal parts used across electronics, medical, and industrial applications.

As the company grows, its approach remains the same: business is earned, not given. The new Motor City facility reflects that mindset, expanding capabilities while staying focused on service, quality, and long-term customer relationships.

Yamaha Robotics SMT section has supplied a complete surface-mount production line including printing, mounting, and 3D-AOI capabilities to Inter-Company, based in Goor, Netherlands, which builds specialised assemblies for high-end applications.

Among the many exciting projects the Inter-Company team has accomplished, building ultra-low-noise, high-frequency, high-precision electronic assemblies for research into quantum computers must be one of the most intriguing. Not only does this low-volume work require care and attention to detail, the engineering teams racing to scale qubits and realise quantum advantage expect a fast turnaround to evaluate their latest ideas quickly.

Among other exacting projects that call for advanced capabilities, high quality, and rapid response times, Inter-Company has produced weather stations for the Dutch meteorological office, complex control systems for battery charging applications, and advanced medical devices. Maritime equipment producers, also, put their trust in Inter-Company to ensure ruggedness, reliability, and safety.

Operating in these markets, Inter-Company needs to start production as soon as possible after receiving any new order. On the other hand, getting new product introductions (NPI) right first time without trial and error, and instantly fixing any problems that creep in during production, are vital from a commercial standpoint. When choosing their all-new SMT line, the team sought a supplier that could offer solutions to these challenges, in addition to the underlying component-placement capabilities.

Together, Yamaha’s YSP10 printer, YRM20 component mounters, and YRi-V 3D AOI system deliver such a solution by connecting through the unique Yamaha YSUP software platform that supports complex interactions between all the machines in the line. Special YSUP features include automatic program creation, component teaching, and building libraries, which help streamline typically time consuming and laborious tasks. Moreover, automatic real-time analysis of inspection data, during production, indicates any defects as they happen and pinpoints the causes, allowing fast remedial action. These are long-standing advantages of the Yamaha YSUP platform, made even more powerful in the latest software releases that introduce additional AI-based capabilities, which help production teams accelerate NPI and maximise end-of-line yield.
