For International PCB Manufacturers outside of China, finding the AI/SMT supplier they need to meet many demanding forces of timeliness, support services, superior quality as well as consistency is sometimes an overwhelming task. It is especially challenging to discern that diamond in the rough supplier when using popular shopping platforms like Alibaba that barrages users with varying degrees of quality and quotes.

One man, Jason Wu, has taken his 30 years of engineering experience in servicing AI and SMT equipment to the next level to serve those clients looking for the best way to source SMT from China. Mr. Wu and his sales team lead the way in offering international manufacturing customers something beyond the experience of affordable equipment. Beyond the selling of equipment, Mr. Wu and his team aim to educate and train on top quality automated manufacturing processes at every angle possible.

The idea of Southern Machinery was born of the necessity for an online support tool for PCB Engineers internationally. Mr. Wu believes in helping companies move their manufacturing factories back to their home country where they can reap the benefits and rewards for themselves. Southern Machinery helps PCB Manufacturers at every level by walking investors of new factories, refurbished factories, etc., through a Full Factory Assessment, to help manufacturers get the most ROI from their PCB Manufacturing Investment.

Mr. Wu and his team are constantly updating their audience on PCB assembly best practices, procedures, equipment, and how-to’s with videos, infographics, and articles that come directly from Service Engineer experience.

Their website SMTHelp.com was created as an easy shopping tool for factory purchasing departments and trusted customers to return and make quick and easy purchases of spare parts and other peripheral equipment that saves customers time.

To make shopping as convenient and safe as possible for PCB Manufacturers, Southern Machinery accepts Paypal direct from their website in addition to the traditional transfer wire.

Mr. Wu has witnessed consistent growth and recognition by Fortune 100 Manufacturing Companies for offering impeccable service and quality at prices that are often times 10x lower than name brand suppliers. “We are currently working with some major players in the Worldwide Lighting Industry and offering them the same superior quality of SMT Equipment and service they are accustomed to but at much more affordable pricing that allows their budget to be spent elsewhere,” stated Wu.

With the upsurge of PCB Suppliers needing to overhaul their production and processes, automation of every step from printing and stencil cleaning to component placement and soldering, has become a matter of high urgency. It can be challenging to choose the right supplier that can meet every need but when you choose a supplier that walks you through the entire process and is still by your side 30 years later to support your every need, you know you’ve chosen the best way to SMT from China.
