Limits to Growth: Build-up Substrate Shortage Crisis
May 2026 — VJ Electronix, Inc., the leader in rework technologies and global provider of advanced X-ray inspection and component counting systems, has appointed MaRC Technologies, Inc. as its manufacturers’ representative in the Pacific Northwest.
Led by Mike Gunderson, MaRC Technologies supports electronics manufacturers and high-tech companies with equipment, materials, and technical solutions. Headquartered in Oregon, the company has built long-standing relationships across the region and brings a strong understanding of the local customer base.
This appointment builds on VJ Electronix’s existing relationship with the MaRCTex team, following more than a year of successful collaboration supporting customers in Texas. Expanding that partnership into the Pacific Northwest provides continuity for customers while strengthening VJ Electronix’s presence in another key U.S. manufacturing region.
“Mike and his team have already proven to be a strong partner for us,” said Don Naugler, General Manager at VJ Electronix. “They understand the applications, they know the customers, and they’ve done a great job representing our solutions. Expanding into the Pacific Northwest was a natural next step.”
MaRC Technologies will represent VJ Electronix’s full portfolio of solutions, including automated rework systems, X-ray inspection platforms, and component counting systems. The partnership is focused on providing local support and helping customers address real production challenges, from rework of complex assemblies to inventory control and inspection.
“We’ve had the opportunity to work closely with VJ Electronix over the past year, and it’s been a great fit,” said Mike Gunderson, MaRC Technologies. “Their equipment solves real problems on the production floor, and we’re looking forward to bringing that same level of support to customers in the Pacific Northwest.”
VJ Electronix continues to expand its North American representation network to better support customers with local expertise and faster response times.
