What VJ Electronix does

VJ Electronix, Inc. is a privately held supplier of X-ray inspection, PCB rework, and X-ray component counting systems for the electronics manufacturing industry. Founded in 2003 as a division of VJ Technologies (VJ Group Inc.), the company is headquartered in Chelmsford, Massachusetts, operates with a headcount of 11-50, and claims the largest installed base of rework systems in the world. Its primary customers are aerospace, automotive, military & defense, and general electronics manufacturers, with secondary applications in medical devices, 5G infrastructure, and AI hardware assembly.

The company's product portfolio comprises three families: (1) Summit series rework systems, spanning the budget-oriented Summit 750i, the high-volume Summit 1800i (claimed as the most installed rework system in the industry), automated Summit 2200i with Component Auto Align, large-board Summit LXi and LXi Auto, and the flagship Summit LT120 and Summit LT150 (handling components up to 120mm and 150mm respectively, with up to 11.2kW bottom heating); (2) Apogee 90 microfocus X-ray inspection featuring a 90kV sealed tube with 4µm focal spot and 45° oblique angle inspection, plus custom X-ray solutions for non-standard samples; and (3) XQuik II Plus and XQuik III component counters using AI-based automatic component recognition with claimed 99%+ accuracy and sub-20-second cycle times, integrated with customer MES systems. Sister divisions VJ X-ray (VJX) and VJ Technologies (VJT) provide X-ray source and industrial X-ray expertise respectively.

VJ Electronix generates revenue through capital equipment sales of rework, X-ray inspection, and component counting systems, supplemented by factory-authorized service contracts, preventive maintenance, radiation surveys, customized training, and lead-free equipment upgrades. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company sells through a combination of direct enterprise sales and a channel of U.S. manufacturers' representatives, with recent (May 2026) additions of MaRC Technologies for the Pacific Northwest and The Murray Percival Company for Illinois and Southern Wisconsin, alongside a claimed global footprint supported by VJ Technologies' corporate resources including VJ Technologies China.
