From their Cambridgeshire HQ, Etch Tech managing director Angela McCallion commented "We are very proud to have the quality systems in place which allowed us to upgrade to the new standard on our first attempt. The entire Etch Tech team have worked tremendously hard over the last few months to implement lean manufacturing principles without compromising quality. The new standard is a confirmation of their success." She went on to say "Sadly existing users and even those new to the chemical etching industry, have been convinced by some of our competitors, it is impossible to supply quality products on short lead-times" adding "The Etch Tech team consistently achieve delivery of flat parts in 5-7 and more complex formed parts in 10 working days without compromising quality. I hope by achieving the newest standard our customers are assured that the quality of the products they receive is not compromised in any way, by the ability of Etch Tech to offer a premium service".

The Management Team
The management team at Etch Tech have 75+ years in the Photo Etching, also known as Photo Chemical Machining (PCM) industry. The directors decided that in these very difficult times within the manufacturing sector, it was time to revisit the core advantages of the process. These being: excellent quality, low cost tooling, rapid manufacturing, batch size flexibility and a keen pricing structure. These have all been achieved by the recent comprehensive lean manufacturing programme undertaken at Etch Tech. The upgraded quality standard is now the final confirmation of the modern quality systems in place. Standard manufacturing lead-times of 5-7 working days are standard and carry no premium charge.
