TEAM A.T.E. was able to locate a memory tester that fit our needs perfectly.  We saved hundreds of thousands of dollars by purchasing a used system, and had it on our test floor in less than one month!  They even followed-up to make sure we were happy with its continued performance.

I am amazed at how well my refurbished board tester looks and performs.  I would like to have our existing equipment refurbished as well.

I was impressed when TEAM A.T.E. informed me that the equipment I was looking for was available at another location within our own company.  I'll be sure to use them again because I can trust them.

When we heard our leased test system was coming back, we had no idea what we had or what it was worth.  We turned to TEAM A.T.E. for help.  They figured out the configuration, took the tester in on consignment, reworked it, handled damage claims, sold it and generated more value than we ever anticipated.

TEAM A.T.E. helped us when we were a young, fast-growing company by sourcing pre-owned systems.  This allowed us to build our production capacity quickly with much less capital than anticipated.  We continue to use them today for both marketing our surplus equipment and buying additional systems to meet our continuing capacity changes.

The system arrived soon enough to allow a very critical product to hit production uninterrupted.  This was absolutely crucial and we very much appreciate their effort and attention to detail.  The system was installed and follow-up consultation was provided to ensure our satisfaction with the system.

TEAM A.T.E. was able to deliver a large VLSI tester to us in half the time of the O.E.M.' s delivery schedule.   We also got a fair deal in the process that included installation and continuing support with the O.E.M.  All issues were handled for us in a professional manner.

We went to TEAM A.T.E. when we encountered a situation where we would be receiving equipment back in trade for newer test systems.  We received excellent advice and assistance in sourcing new locations for the old test systems, and made money in the process.

TEAM A.T.E.' s vast international experience was needed as they helped secure memory testers for our plant.  They negotiated the purchase in Italian Lira and the sale in New Taiwan Dollars.

Our company was thinking about selling multiple high-end test systems.  TEAM A.T.E. helped us with valuable marketing advice.  We worked with them exclusively to sell our systems in an orderly fashion.  We realize now that we avoided a huge hassle by using many dealers simultaneously and giving the false impression that many like systems were available on the market.
