Mike Bacon, Spartanics VP Sales and Marketing, says, "In these economic times production costs need to be controlled and the unreliability of manual inspection needs to be managed. If you do the math, the labor cost savings for automated inspection in the typical mid-range card manufacturing plant can be staggering. Our first investors in Spartanics' automated card inspection systems have weathered the economic downturn successfully, in part, with the help of this technology. Now we are making the same production efficiencies available to a much wider swathe of companies so that they too can get these same production efficiency benefits."
