AEI RECEIVES SIGNIFICANT NEW ORDERS FOR ADVANCED OPTO-ELECTRONIC PROCESS PROTOTYPING

Will Use AEI's Patent-Pending Re-Alignment Technology

Wilmington, Massachusetts November 30, 2003 Automation Engineering Incorporated (AEI) announced today that it has recently received multiple significant orders to help customers refine manufacturing process and packaging design to accommodate the next generation of opto-electronic/photonic devices.

"We see this as an acceleration and continuation of our work in this area that includes advanced collaboration with our customers in tasks such as design for manufacturing to optimize product and process development. We offer these services as an integral part of our offerings for precision automation. We find that our clients need complete solutions, instead of just catalog automation products that are not optimized for specific manufacturing applications. This is a key element to maximize yield and otherwise reduce product costs." said Andre By, Chief Technology Officer and founder of AEI.

"AEI's clients typically are introducing disruptive new products that are very unique compared to what has previously been available in the marketplace. These type of products have in many cases never been made before and getting a stable manufacturing process quickly in place is essential to minimize time to market." added Justin Roe, AEI's Chief Operating Officer.
