AA Manufacturing gears up PCBA and CEM capabilities

Alan Anderson (AA) Manufacturing, the UK’s newest full-capability PCBA and Value-Add CEM, is adding significantly to its workforce, with the hiring of a key new executive and a team of skilled manufacturing staff.

The move is in support of a multi-million-pound investment in state-of-the-art equipment and designed to deliver the highest quality electronics manufacturing service.

“We are building a world class facility here in the UK, offering not only PCBA capabilities, but also programming, procurement and logistics, all under one roof. The highest calibre equipment required the highest calibre personnel,” says operations director Philip Bray.

Joining AA Manufacturing as sales director is Michael Knight (pictured) who formerly held a similar post at another UK CEM.

Other new hires include four new production staff and two SMT engineers who previously worked together in a team at a UK plant that is now moving offshore.

“Keeping manufacturing close to the end market improves quality, speeds manufacturing time and saves waste,” adds Bray, “we believe in employing the best, experienced people and we are happy that all the new hires have chosen to bring their skills and expertise to AA Manufacturing.”
