Johannesburg, South Africa – September 2026 – Vanguard Power (Pty) Ltd continues to invest in
advanced manufacturing technologies that enhance the quality and reliability of
its Battery Tripping Units and DC power systems. A key part of this investment
is the company's in-house Surface Mount Technology (SMT) facility, where
printed circuit boards (PCBs) are assembled using automated pick-and-place
equipment.
By manufacturing its own electronic
assemblies, Vanguard Power maintains complete control
over the production process, from component placement and soldering through to
inspection and testing. This ensures every PCB meets strict quality standards
before being integrated into the company's products.
Automated SMT assembly provides exceptional
accuracy and repeatability, resulting in consistently high-quality electronic
assemblies that are designed to perform reliably in demanding industrial
environments. Keeping this capability in-house also enables faster product
development, improved production flexibility, reduced lead times and rapid
implementation of engineering improvements when required.
"Investing in our own SMT manufacturing
capability reflects our commitment to quality and continuous improvement,"
said Andy van Heerden, Director of Vanguard Power. "It allows us to
produce reliable electronic assemblies, respond quickly to customer
requirements and maintain the high standards our products are known for."
The company's manufacturing philosophy is
centred on quality at every stage of production. Combined with experienced
engineering, comprehensive testing and robust quality assurance procedures, Vanguard Power delivers dependable solutions trusted
throughout the mining, utilities, power generation, manufacturing and
infrastructure sectors. The company profile highlights its commitment to
innovation, quality and locally manufactured Battery Tripping Units and DC
power solutions.
