DEK named Flash Electronics winner of its Combined Strength award, recognizing the EMS firm for its partnership and use of DEK's printing platforms.

Flash has been a DEK customer since 1994. The company has six locations worldwide.

Flash's  SMT engineering manager Long Pham said, "Since we often need to transfer product from our facilities in the Americas to locations in China, we must have a supplier partner that can provide us with global product consistency. Because of DEK's ability to repeat transfer product between their global facilities, partnering exclusively with them has eliminated these problems and allows us to ensure superior quality, cost efficiency and quick time to market."

DEK Americas general manager Neil MacRaild said, "The partnership has enabled product and process development on both sides: DEK has also gained from the shared knowledge of this relationship. The Flash and DEK teams have worked as one to find solutions to manufacturing challenges, add efficiency to global processes and help ensure high-yield, top quality products for Flash's well-known customers."
