The expansion is said to bolster the company’s commitment in providing customers with a secure supply chain.
FREMONT, Calif.—Hyve Solutions Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of TD SYNNEX Corporation and a provider of hyperscale digital infrastructures, recently added new surface mount technology (SMT) lines that expand its U.S. manufacturing capabilities. The expansion bolsters Hyve’s ongoing commitment in providing customers with a secure supply chain through locally-optimized efficiencies and lead time reductions, the company said in a release.
Domestic manufacturing of secure root of trust (RoT) cards, security modules, and other Trusted Platform devices, including main system boards, has become a strategic priority for the United States and its allies. Ensuring the security of the supply chain is critical for the public cloud and those who use it, particularly for the U.S. Department of Defense and Intelligence agencies, and companies that require a high degree of supply chain security, Hyve Solutions said in the release.
The new SMT lines are reported to be equipped with the latest automated technologies and inspection processes, allowing Hyve to produce custom-built, high-quality motherboards in the United States while simultaneously reducing lead times associated with complex system boards. The combination of the newest, most efficient equipment, coupled with the latest robotic and inspection automation, is said to result in increased printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) capacity and reduced manufacturing cycle times, while maintaining a highly cost-competitive solution.
“Expanding our in-country manufacturing capabilities underscores our commitment to better serve our customers,” said Steve Ichinaga, president of Hyve Solutions, in a statement. “This investment leads to increased production capacity and streamlined operations with a focus on secure supply chain, increasing our ability to respond more quickly to changing market and customer demands.”
As a fully vertical integrated partner, the new U.S.-based SMT operation is the latest in a series of investments made by Hyve. It is said to reinforce the company’s dedication to providing “best-in-class design to worldwide deployment of custom-built data centers.”
“The opening of this SMT operation bolsters our Secure Supply Chain strategy,” said Sarah Lin, vice president of supply chain for Hyve Solutions, in the release. “This investment in U.S.-based, fully automated lines tightens the supply chain and cuts lead times while providing best-in-class secure supply chain benefits to our customers.”
Hyve said that in partnership with customers, it “leverages deep-seated industry experience and strong vendor partnerships to design and deliver purpose-built server, storage, and networking” products to meet data center demand.
