Our Company


Apollo Seiko has dedicated the past 48 years to the design and development of automated soldering systems.   Our visionary founder, George Kawaguchi, identified a need to automate the labor-intensive process of hand soldering.  He revolutionized the soldering industry by creating systems that increased output and quality by providing a precise, repeatable robotic process.  Since this time, Apollo Seiko has continued to patent many advances in selective soldering technology including versatile iron tip design, innovative solder feeding techniques and nitrogen integration to provide a low-cost, lead free soldering solution for both robotic and hand soldering applications.  From automotive to biotechnology, we believe all electronics industries can benefit from automated soldering.  

Our North American leadership team has decades of experience in manufacturing automation.  The operations are headed by visionary leader Rick Schiffer.  Rick provides a vast process automation expertise and unequivocal dedication to providing quality solutions to meet a diverse and growing need for soldering mechanization.
