WESTLAKE, Ohio, May 1 /PRNewswire/ --
Dage Precision Industries, a Nordson company (Nasdaq: NDSN) and the industry leader in x-ray inspection technology, is pleased to announce that it was recently awarded the prestigious Frost & Sullivan Vertical Market Penetration Leadership Award in the AXI (Automated X-ray Inspection) Market. The "Industrial Technologies Awards Ceremony" was held on 25th April 2008 at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, Kuala Lumpur.
Frost & Sullivan, a global growth consulting organization, identified the top players in the automation and electronics/industrial process control industries. Dage was recognized as the top achiever in the AXI Market award category, which demonstrates excellent qualities in meeting the demands and requirements of clients in the electronics assembly industry market segment in Asia Pacific. Throughout the in-depth interviews, analysis, and extensive secondary research with peer companies, dealers and end users, Dage has demonstrated its continuous and dedicated efforts towards technology innovation to support the growth of the entire AXI market, and also outperformed in its practices across functional disciplines such as sales promotion and after-sales support.
Arun Krumar C, Research Analyst for the Automation & Electronics Practice, Frost & Sullivan, Asia Pacific said, "The South East Asian Electronics Industry is characterized by the presence of a large number of small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Return on capital investment is of paramount importance to these players. Price-performance ratio of x-ray inspection systems plays a crucial role in determining new customer acquisition and competitiveness. The deep-seated 'value-for-money' image of the Dage products has led to their rapid growth in the South East Asian AXI equipment market. In a market rife with SMEs who are extremely price sensitive, Dage's AXI systems perfectly fit the bill as best cost products offering inspection solutions." He added, "Dage's famed 'after sales service' is another forte that has resulted in higher customer acquisition despite competition from cheaper x-ray solutions from Chinese players."
