All Employees are considered Customer Care Team members
Team/customer interface is through Inside Sales
All RMA’s are evaluated by appropriate Product Team . Most common final resolution isthrough Applications Engineering or Operations
Actual repairs are performed by the Manufacturing and Test Product team members, asopposed to a dedicated repair department.
The equipment producers get direct customer product feedback, and efficiency isimproved.
Manufacturing Engineering team member audits repair process to ensure quality andprovide direct feedback to Quality, Design Engineering and Documentation.
Repair work is now scheduled just like new equipment, but with shorter lead times.Improvements will allow for routine turnaround time of less than a week.
Customer Care – Product Teams

Custom Configurations: 2 & 3 Cap Match, Dual or Balanced output @ 180 Degrees
Current/DC/RF Voltage Probes/VI Probe
Matching network can be supplied with internal DC, RF Peak, Current or VI probe*
These parameters are programmable and can be programmed to reduce power
until the condition is corrected or abort (turn RF Off).
ATS Series matching networks Load and Tune variable capacitors travel range can be
programmed to ensure that the match does not enter into a problematic tuning region.
