RD2 vapor phase reflow system.
the redesigned system offers im- proved profiling capabilities with a convected preheat zone and three vapor preheat settings. The RD2’s energy use has been
reduced by 30 percent, and the com- pany has realized a reduction of 40 percent for the fluid fill requirement over the previous model. The system
uniform and reliable heat transfer for high-quality reflow. With a work- ing envelope of 18 x 15 x 2.5 in. (455 x 380 x 63 mm), the RD2 includes a patented palletized conveyor system that keeps the product horizontal throughout the process. The RD2 is designed to accom-

Rick Polansky of VirTex... Continued from previous page
for a submarine subsurface commu- nication system for the US Navy. I was hooked! Then I joined XeTel, in 1989. At
that time Solectron was the largest EMS at $140M and we were about half that size. XeTel, a spin-off of Texas Instruments, was a technology leader and our customers needed us. I left after XeTel went public and joined Sanmina, opening up their first re- mote sales office in Austin. In 1995 Sanmina was still under $1B and Juri Sola (CEO) was active in every aspect of the company. He was tough, a Croa- tian soccer player. He knew that it took a team to win. Three years later I joined SMTC where we were part of the roll-out of DSL FTTN (Fiber to the Node) bringing Internet to the masses through the installed phone lines, still in broad use today. After the “tech wreck” in 2001, I
went back into defense where I had top-secret clearance for 3D visualiza- tion technologies; working with some of the world’s leading scientists and defense departments like DARPA that fund innovative new technologies. But the people I worked with at SMTC had joined Flextronics and recruited me to start a new business segment, SBS (Small Business Solutions), which cre- ated a small flexible company inside the giant company to support low vol- ume, high technology solutions. After the Flex acquisition of
Solectron for $10B in 2008, I left and joined Celestica. We set up a new in- dustrial segment and I was tasked with leading it. Following that, I was asked to manage to global team for sales and solutions and for the next four years traveled over one million airline miles to every part of the planet where our customers were. G.P.:What challenges are you looking for in this new position with VirTex? R.P.: The market is truly hungry for the technologically capable. They are not seeking a quote model; they are seeking a solution that lets them stand out with innovation, and the products they make are a piece of this. The market has always been product- driven and that is changing. The EMS giants are not nimble enough to ad- dress this and are trying to solve it with innovation centers. But they do not have the patience to truly listen
and develop solutions around a specif- ic customer’s needs; we do. G.P.: Why do you think VirTex has been successful in building up and maintaining its reputation? R.P.: What is most exciting to me is the focus that Brad Heath and Vir- Tex have had on customized cus- tomer solutions. He built a company on this and has proven that there is a market gap for this service offering. Austin has been an incubator only second to Silicon Valley. We both be- lieve that your integrity and reputa- tion are built across a timeline. Many of our customers are also friends, business associates and former co- workers and employees from differ- ent companies. They know us, they trust us and they count on us.
