Strategic Alliance Aims to Revolutionize Used ATE Market

West Chester, OH - Rite Track and TEAM A.T.E. have joined forces in a strategic venture that leverages their combined strengths in order to expand product and service offerings in the used automated test equipment (ATE) market.

The synergy of Rite Track’s superior global service and spare parts network combined with TEAM A.T.E.’s contacts, industry know-how and technical experience in the ATE market expands the superb customer service each company provides, and strengthens their already noteworthy worldwide presence.

RITE TRACK and TEAM A.T.E. each have a tradition of developing close working relationships with the suppliers in their industry, providing a powerful advantage to their customer base, particularly via their ability to provide hard to find parts, superior service and logistics support on legacy systems.

Tim Hayden, President and CEO of Rite Track stated, “TEAM A.T.E.’s over 15 years of worldwide presence in the ATE market provides a great complement to Rite Track’s position as the market leader in refurbished track equipment. Rite Track and TEAM A.T.E. together provide resources that both companies can utilize to our customer’s benefit. We are looking forward to extending our market into the test equipment arena.”

Kyle Schroeder, President and CEO of TEAM A.T.E. said, “Rite Track is the largest independent third party equipment refurbisher in the semiconductor equipment field for good reason. Their great reputation in this arena was earned through their extensive engineering, software, service and parts distribution infrastructure.
