Current IssueEngineering Economics
The real cost to manufacture a PCB encompasses everything that goes into making the product: the materials and other value-added supplies, machine and personnel costs, and most importantly, your quality. A hard look at real costs seems wholly appropriate.
Alternate Metallization Processes
Traditional electroless copper and electroless copper immersion gold have been primary PCB plating methods for decades. But alternative plating metals and processes have been introduced over the past few years as miniaturization and advanced packaging continue to develop.
Technology Roadmaps
In this issue of PCB007 Magazine, we discuss technology roadmaps and what they mean for our businesses, providing context to the all-important question: What is my company’s technology roadmap?

Gardien Launches G90 Series Flying Probe
September 2, 2019 | Gardien GroupEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Gardien has announced the G90 series of flying probes, fully designed and assembled in Germany. These fixtureless testers were developed in response to a client requirement of testing large sized boards. The large machine thus developed utilized the modular design concept, which gave Gardien the opportunity to conceive an entire new series.
The G90 series has 4 variants – G90, G90L, G90XL and G90XXL – and between them, are capable of testing board sizes ranging from 812mm x 812mm (31.9” x 31.9”) up to 1600mm x 1200mm (63 x 39.4”). These flying probes offer high accuracy rates across the entire test area with the glass scale system. The motor driven movable, lower frame allows for easy loading of boards of big sizes, making if ergonomically comfortable for the user. The well thought out design still offers a standard working height for regular sized boards. Lowering the bottom frame creates space for big boards, without the need increase the dimensions of the machine drastically. It is still compact enough to fit through a standard sized doorframe. Precise measurements of low resistance can be achieved with an option to upgrade to 4-wire Kelvin testing.
Gardien Europe Managing Director, Holger Kern, who was personally involved in the development of these series, expressed a sense of fulfilment with his team’s efforts and added, “We are sure the G90 series, with its notable features, will be widely used by the industry. By rolling the G90 out to our own test facilities we gathering real production feedback from different user groups and incorporated much into the new design of the machine and the operating software ”
Talking about Gardien’s reputation, Roland Valentini, Group COO, said,” A reason for our clients’ dependability upon us is our commitment to continually add new products to our portfolio, expanding our offerings. Our industry knowledge, customer centric approach and unbiased methods drive the outcomes they want to achieve. ”
