Harry Levy Amusements has revealed two of the hottest new machines from its huge range of games ahead of this year’s ATEI.
Dazzler does exactly what its name suggests. It’s one of the most eye-catching 12-player pushers Harry Levy has ever produced. The machine was shown in prototype format at the Preview and the Harry Levy team listened to customers’ feedback in order to fine tune Dazzler in readiness for ATEI. “We listened to you guys and we ended up with a masterpiece. Order early to avoid that early Easter rush,” says Gary Newman. A limited number of Dazzlers are available before Christmas.

The second game that is making waves at Harry Levy is a new video redemption piece, which pays homage to a classic from the past. Sea Wolf from Coastal Amusements in the US is breaking all records. Harry Levy Amusements has full Uk & Ireland distribution rights for the game, which is so engrossing that some jurisdictions that can’t operate redemption are buying significant numbers to operate as a pure amusement/video piece.

“The idea behind the game is to shoot and destroy various sea-faring vessels, all of which have differing point values. The digital LCD monitor in 16x 9 Format Produces realistic animation. The Fire , Explosions and Torpedo action are enhanced with Stereo sound, and a Sub-Woofer located in the seat gives the game a bone rattling realistic feel. Sinking the Super Fast Craft wins the Bonus Ticket Feature.This game can really perform, and was the star of the recent IAAPA show in the US,” says Colin Mallery.

Cashmaster International, the innovative manufacturers and distributors of cash counting machines have embarked on a new growth strategy, signalled by a £300,000 investment in their production facility.

Unlike many British companies, Cashmaster have opted to remain loyal to Scotland and reinvest in their manufacturing site located in Rosyth, Fife, in a bid to increase production capacity and offer its blue chip clients reduced lead-times.

A strong desire to uphold quality and increase efficiency has prompted Cashmaster to change its manufacturing ethos, from batch to flow-line. Investment has been focused on production machinery, including a Speedline MPM Printer, MyData15 Surface Mount machine (robotic pick and place), ERSA Hotflow 7 Oven (forced air convection) and a new component reel storage system.

Specifically designed to facilitate a flow-line process, each of these machines are connected by conveyors, providing a seamless linear line for PCB production. The new flow-line process offers many advantages over the old batch production process and will be soon be accompanied by a MVP GEM Automated Optical Inspection unit and a laser etching machine. The heart of the new line is the MyData Surface Mount machine, which is fitted with both 14k hydra placement and 6kzfi heads, providing a combined placement rating of up to 14400cph (chips per hour). It can place a vast selection of components from 0402 (40thou x 20thou / 1mm x 0.5mm) to large QFP’s and micro BGA style components. 

Engineering Manager, Douglas Reid, said: “Cashmaster have strategic growth ambitions, which meant we had to invest in our production facility to offer customers the benefit of advanced technology, whilst also ensuring that the skills of our employees remain at the highest level. The new production facility will allow us to increase our production capacity, offer shorter lead times and crucially become highly responsive as a manufacturing unit, which will have a massive impact on our production capabilities”.

With a record-breaking international order book for Q1 2008 and a forecast increase in sales of over 35% for 2008, the company has cited the commissioning of their new production facility the first strategic step of many.
