The Commission on Elections (Comelec) said all the 110,620 ACM units have been completely manufactured by Miru Systems in its production plant in South Korea.

"Miru JV hurdled, well in advance, the final milestone of the Full Automation with Transparency Audit and Count project, with the completion of the manufacture of the 110,620 ACMs," the Comelec said yesterday.

The poll body said the last unit of ACM to come out of the assembly lines at the Miru production plant in South Korea was manufactured two months earlier than the December deadline.

According to the Comelec, there are 78,456 ACM units currently stored at its warehouse in Biñan, Laguna and are currently undergoing the mandatory stress test and hardware acceptance test.
