OXFORD, CT — MIRTEC, “The Global Leader in Inspection Technology,” announces that it is the recipient of the 2009 Frost & Sullivan Award for Product Innovation in the AOI Equipment Market.

This award is presented to MIRTEC for demonstrating excellence in new product development, having a competitive advantage over existing products in the market, and successfully executing a sound; sales and marketing strategy.

MIRTEC’s innovative MV-7xi Inline AOI System has raised the industry standard for throughput, quality, ease of use and reliability. With its revolutionary technology the MV-7xi has found wide spread acceptance among electronics manufacturers thus enabling MIRTEC to establish a leadership position in the highly competitive AOI market.

MIRTEC’s competitive advantages include leading edge technologies, a diversified customer base, and vertical market exposure along with an expanded geographic presence.

With a combined installed base of several thousand systems, and projected sales of more than 500 systems per year, MIRTEC is rapidly gaining market share and establishing its leadership position.

In an industry that is facing a continuing evolution toward higher density PCBs, the industry wide acceptance of advanced packaging is pushing AOI systems to the limits of their capabilities. As the manufacturing process becomes increasingly more complex, the engineering team at MIRTEC continues to bring to the market new and innovative AOI solutions designed to give their customers a competitive edge in dealing with both their immediate and future inspection requirements.
