They do, but they are sold under the name Cobra.

That place is tiny!

I used to be a field engineer working on Surfacemount automation equipment. The Pick and place, chipshooters, ScreenPrinters and reflow ovens alone would take up that space. That facility looks WAY too small to the PCB assembly there. Also reflow ovens need to have an exhaust, and it stinks when in operation.

Then you need a test area, shipping, sales office and stockroom. Nope that is way too small, if they do it all there they have to at least be ousourcing the assembly.

John_in_NC,

I agree.

Probably just Engineers and Sales there. I would venture to say they are made elsewhere.

Yeah they are but I know it is in the USA. Those pictures house technicians and sales.
