Innovation can create less waste. And, less waste can mean more profitability. Both were true for one VGT customer. One of our customers gave us a challenge to create a better yield, (50-60%) on a process to circuit board with less waste. Today, that customer reports that they have greater product yield—sometimes greater than 90 percent—and less waste when using our process versus their previous manufacturer’s. How did that happen? This is our duty , for ourselves, and for our customer.
