OOSTERHOUT, THE NETHERLANDS - Vitronics Soltec will move its global engineering and product management responsibilities to its European Business Unit, which the company says will better leverage the company's soldering knowledge and provide comprehensive products and support on a global scale.

The shift to Europe will permit the company to take full advantage of nearly a century of soldering expertise, Vitronics said. Engineering teams in the US and China will be maintained and will continue to help product development, the firm said.

The company, which released new selective and wave soldering lines this year, said it expects to debut two more products in 2015.

Vitronics Soltec’s Advanced Technology team is led by Gerjan Diepstraten. The global Engineering and Product Management team will be headed by Ton Colijn, a 25-year Vitronics Soltec veteran who has been responsible for many successful product introductions, including the recently introduced ZEVAv selective soldering machine.
