Electronics firm delivers the goods

05 Oct, 2009 12:00 PM
THE director of an electronic engineering firm recently recognised with a national design award says it is proof Australian businesses can produce the goods.

Ray Keefe and his wife Junette, who run Successful Endeavour in Berwick, were awarded the 2009 EDN Innovation Award for Best Application of an Analogue Design and Best Application of Design Software for a wireless device for detecting corrosion in pipes.

The device was developed over 15 months for data-logging company Borgtech and is used to maintain pipes carrying water or gas.

Mr Keefe hopes the award will help to highlight the work of small electronic engineering businesses.

"The main thing I hope will come out of this for other small business is that people realise we can do world-class electronics and do it cost-effectively and do it in Australia."

Hi Ray & Junette, Picture looks great, you both look so proud of this great accomplishment and you should be. Only the best Australia has to offer get these prices and we can truly say that's the case, well done guys. Who would have thought that when we went out hunting for low cost electronics we would end up with the best double award winning CP Data Logger in the market! You are true electronic geniuses well done, also on behalf of many Australian small businesses, which given a good chance can make remarkable impact in the world as you are. Personally we thank you for putting Borgtech in the market, without your effort we would still be struggling, thanks again for your great vision guys, well earned rewards Pablo Varjabedian www.borgtech.com.au
