Rogerstone, UK - Fujifilm Electronic Imaging Ltd. (FFEI) has returned as EMS provider TTems' sole supplier of PCBAs. The partnership is projected to provide TTems with £3 Million in 2006.

TTems has partnered with FFEI - Fujifilm's only manufacturer of electronic pre-press equipment outside Japan - at its Rogerstone site since 1999. FFEI's volume PCBA manufacturing will now take place in the UK.

TTems' NPI team worked to implement the 38 new lines at its Rogerstone facility over a two-month period. The lines are spread across five ranges of FFEI equipment, including the Luxel-V series and V6 machine.

The companies are working to switch the product lines to lead-free in line with legislative requirements. The first Pb-free FFEI board samples are undergoing full functional test.
