NSTAR® Global Services (NSTAR) announced the opening of its first fabrication facility and training center. The new facility, located in Boise, Idaho, will accelerate customers’ tool and facility support projects by manufacturing and supplying required parts as needed. Supported services include contract manufacturing of subassemblies, control panels, and selective tool refurbishment projects.
Often, integrated device manufacturers (IDMs) need support for chemical and wet process systems, new electrical and control panels, or component refurbishment. The fabrication shop supplies components, reducing the cost and lead time needed to procure parts and complete repairs.
“This new facility allows us to provide simple solutions for various types of projects,” said Jimmy Lyngar, director of business development at NSTAR. “As IDMs increasingly move to performing their own facility services, NSTAR can help by providing contract manufacturing services that address customers’ unique requirements, even for small or one-off projects. Opening this facility allows us to become a one-stop shop for our customers by accelerating project completion,” he added.
The site includes a training center, where technicians and engineers receive hands-on training for specific equipment and services. Additionally, customers can use the center to establish training protocols to meet site requirements for new and existing employees.
