BRUGGE, BELGIUM -- Jabil Circuit's production facility here will be liquidated later this month. The EMS firm leased the 116,000 sq. ft. facility, which also formerly housed a design center.

Jabil's lines at the site included DEK printers; Assembleon, Universal and Fuji placement equipment; and Vitronics soldering equipment.

The company said last fall it would shutter a few scattered sites.

Ten of the displaced workers were hired last month by IPTE NV to beef up its test automation programs for LCD TV, telecom equipment and automotive electronics.
