NOTE launches NOTE Labs

The manufacturer of electronics; NOTE, with prototype workshops in Kista, Norrtelje, Lund, Gothenburg and Torsby has upgraded their workshops to NOTE Labs. Yesterday they launched a unique new working concept that will be implemented in the entire NOTE group during 2003. The concept provides higher service level, more efficient feed-back to the customers and reduced manufacturing costs.

All NOTE Labs will have a strengthened connection to world leading production expertise within the industrial segments; medical, optical, telecom, vehicle and automotive. The amount of services will be increased in all five cities. Yesterday NOTE Lab in Kista/Stockholm opened in cooperation with IVF new equipment for EMC test (Electro Magnetic Compatibility), which is available in very few places in Sweden. The EMC-tests controls both how a new electronic product have affect on other electronics in the surroundings, and also how already present electronic products interfere with the new product. The opening in Kista were attended by almost 100 visitors from different companies within the electronic trade.
