Testimonials

"We bought a universal fixture automatic test machine from Gardien as a replacement for our aging dedicated fixture tester. It is a very compact, space saving equipment and also comes with an automatic loading and unloading feature. The sound during the automatic operation is minimal and comfortable. It is also very efficient at improving the productivity on the test floor. We are very pleased with this machine"

"In December 2017, suffering from a labour shortage, we decided to introduce Gardien’s machines capable of automatic loading and unloading. In the beginning, we were a bit apprehensive about its efficiency and reliability but we have been proven wrong. The performance is beyond what we expected and our productivity has grown tremendously. General Manager of one of Gardien’s long-term clients who wishes to remain unnamed"

"For Polytron Print, it was particularly important that they could integrate their existing adapters into the machine and get a German speaking service – all of which we got at Gardien’s Limburg service center. The production experience of over half year with the Kaima GUDAA proves how well engineered, flexible and powerful the device is and the expected throughput has been achieved."

"Integrating with Gardien was the best decision I made. They have provided exemplary service all these years – always offering the most appropriate solutions , timely and accurate. Gardien has always moved with the times technologically."

"We opted for Gardien's Integrate solution 4 years ago, as we felt that they provide a real QA functional service, which reduces RMA's, improves quality, and demonstrates expert PCB process knowhow"

"We are extremely pleased to work with Gardien, they are using appropriate equipment, have efficient management tools and understand our PCB service needs. They help us gain a good reputation in the market. I believe my firm can grow faster with the help of Gardien"
