June 2, 2015 | Count On ToolsEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Count On Tools, Inc. (COT), a leading provider of precision components and SMT spare parts, recently expanded its manufacturing operations at its Gainesville, Georgia headquarters. The latest expansion is in response to the growing market for custom engineered SMT nozzles and consumables.
According to company representative, Zach Shook, Count On Tools recently installed a Langun American Turnmaster Manual Lathe to increase production capabilities and lower product lead times on custom engineered nozzles and tooling for the SMT industry.

The industries Count On Tools serves count on accuracy of part specifications and on-time delivery of their orders. The new equipment will enable Count On Tools to achieve both. Additionally, the new equipment handles more complex jobs faster by providing Count On Tools with increased production speeds, automation of production and faster processing power. "This new equipment produces tight tolerance, precision components reliably," said Shook. "As a result, we can now respond to changing customer needs quickly and at highly competitive costs."

The Chemical Connection: Sales Organization from a Capital Equipment Perspective
07/22/2025 | Don Ball -- Column: The Chemical ConnectionThe sales organization for a capital equipment supplier to the PCB industry tends to differ slightly from a supplier that manufactures and sells circuit boards to their customers. After all, our sales depend on the printed circuit board manufacturer’s sales. If business falls off, you tend to delay or reconsider the need for new or upgraded capital equipment, and then our sales fall off. If your sales go up and you need to increase capacity or replace old equipment, our sales also trend upwards.

Smart Automation: The Power of Data Integration in Electronics Manufacturing
06/24/2025 | Josh Casper -- Column: Smart AutomationAs EMS companies adopt automation, machine data collection and integration are among the biggest challenges. It’s now commonplace for equipment to collect and output vast amounts of data, sometimes more than a manufacturer knows what to do with. While many OEM equipment vendors offer full-line solutions, most EMS companies still take a vendor-agnostic approach, selecting the equipment companies that best serve their needs rather than a single-vendor solution.
