Amtech was founded more than two decades ago as a family business located just outside of Detroit, MI. Our goal at the time was to create a sustainable business designed to help small, local manufacturers assembly circuit boards domestically at a scale and cost that made sense. Since then, we’ve grown tremendously, providing the same level of support to much larger companies across the United States who provide a much larger array of EMS products. How did we do it? We’ve honed strategies that allow us to compete with much larger manufacturing operations, ensuring we not only compete but thrive.
