From the SI profile I got this about their competition: "The Company's major equipment competitors include Shinkawa, Kaijo and ESEC in wire bonders; ESEC, Nichiden, ASM Pacific Technology and Alphasem in die bonders; and Disco Corporation in dicing saws. Significant competitors in the packaging materials line include Gaiser Tool Co. and Small Precision Tools, Inc. with respect to expendable tools and Tanaka Electronic Industries and Sumitomo Metal Mining in the bonding wire market. " Alot of these competitors seem to be asian...isn't this cause for worry since asian products are going to be relatively so cheap now?
