MT. LAUREL, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- inTEST Corporation (NYSE American: INTT), a global supplier of innovative test and process technology solutions for use in manufacturing and testing in key target markets which include automotive/EV, defense/aerospace, industrial, life sciences, security, and semiconductor (“semi”), announced today it has moved the design, development and manufacturing operations of its electronic circuit and electric vehicle battery automated test equipment, inTEST Acculogic, to a new facility in Markham, Ontario from its previous three different locations. The new space provides 25,000 square feet of contiguous space with superior utility infrastructure and a modern office complex that is expected to improve operational efficiencies and enhance custom service.

“We believe this move will enable us to more effectively create solutions to address our customers’ unique requirements by putting the whole team under one roof. The collaboration and coordination needed to provide design and development engineering services for creating highly-valued automated test equipment for electronic devices, circuit boards, and EV batteries should be measurably improved simply through closer proximity of all involved from project managers to engineers to fabricators. We can also leverage the significantly more efficient floor plan to streamline development, production and qualification of complete test systems, therefore reducing time to product launch. In addition, the improved infrastructure also provides us the opportunity to implement lean manufacturing practices to drive greater operational efficiencies and reduce waste,” stated Joe McManus, Division President for the Electronic Test Division of inTEST.
