Huntsville, Alabama, April 3, 2006 – AGI Corporation, manufacturer of Wave Solder and SMT / Reflow Pallets, Wave Solder Profiling Tools and Feeder Storage Carts, announced today that it has completed a 7,500 square foot expansion to it’s manufacturing facility. This expansion more than doubles its current manufacturing space. The expansion was needed to support AGI’s continued growing demand for its products and the shorter lead times their customers' require.

In addition to the facility expansion, AGI has added (3) more CNC machining centers. The added machines, coupled with a nearly 24/7 manufacturing operation will help AGI keep pace with their rapidly expanding tooling needs. AGI has also increased its staff by 50% over the past few months. Huntsville, Alabama is well known for having a large pool of manufacturing and engineering talent in the Southern United States.


According to general manager, Chad Petty, “The demand for our products and services increased at a much faster rate than anticipated. AGI has met that demand head on, by doubling our production capacity in 2005. We are now ready to add more blocks of capacity as needed to keep in step with the industry. Our manufacturing operations are now producing products for North America and Mexico, 7 days per week. We are approaching a 24 hour - 7 day work week, allowing AGI to supply customers with quality products as quickly as possible.”
