AGI gambles with NSF solenoids

Edited by the Electronicstalk editorial team Jun 29, 2004

Open frame solenoids from NSF Controls have helped Austrian Gaming Industries become one of the leading designers, manufacturers and suppliers of casino gaming machines.

Open frame solenoids from NSF Controls have helped casino gaming machine specialist, Austrian Gaming Industries (AGI), become one of the leading designers, manufacturers and suppliers of the machines.

Part of the worldwide Novomatic Group, AGI opts for NSF Controls' products in its coin selector mechanisms, citing highly competitive pricing and "better communications" than rival suppliers as two of the main reasons.

Producing around 35,000 gaming machines each year (25,000 of which use solenoid-operated coin selectors), the company's target is to become Europe's largest machine supplier.

AGI's Purchasing Manager, Robert Moser, said: "The laws about gaming machines are different from country to country and our main area of growth at the present time is in Eastern Europe, especially in Russia, but also in countries like Estonia and Poland", he said.

Austrian Gaming Industries is one of the international customers that NSF Controls supplies direct from its Keighley production centre in West Yorkshire, underlining its position as a truly global supplier of electromechanical components and assemblies to a worldwide customer base in a wide range of industries.
