The global shortage of semi-conductor devices is significantly impacting the ability to manufacture products in many industries; all automatic weighing and packaging equipment require these components.
To minimise the impact for our customers we have invested in additional dedicated procurement resource and established a global team focussed on sourcing components and:
- Expanded our supply chain
- Investigated and sourced alternative suppliers of critical components
- Purchased materials in advance
However, this situation is now very regrettably causing our product lead times to be extended. We are very sorry about this situation and would like to assure you that we are undertaking everything practical to resolve this.
To discuss your specific requirements please contact your local Ishida sales office who will be able to provide a full update and recommend the optimum solution.
