At the same time, we are continuing to expand our local sales and service organization since we want to be even closer to our customers and provide them with first-class advice.” Proven partnership ASMPT has been working closely and successfully with JSD for more than 14 years, including in Europe. With the new cooperation in the U.S., both companies want to take advantage of the opportunities that the North American market offers. “For us, ASMPT is the clear technology leader in electronics manufacturing, which is why we wanted to expand this partnership. We are impressed by the performance capabilities of ASMPT’s portfolio and its innovative strength. By working together, we will be able to support our customers in the North American market even more effectively,” said Nico Leon, General Manager at JSD America.
