Amitron Adds Checkpoint to Ucamco's Integr8tor Workflows
October 30, 2019 | Aimtron Corp.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
USA-based PCB manufacturer Amitron has extended their Integr8tor software from Ucamco with the purchase of additional modules, including Checkpoint.
“Our reputation thrives on delivering multilayer, double-sided and single-sided PCBs at the highest possible quality and the lowest possible costs”, says Tyson Mortimer, President at Amitron. “Our main objective is to save our customers money, time and peace of mind. Reaching that goal is reflected in everything we do, from the extent in which we test our circuit boards to the speed in which we deliver our quotes. Which is where Integr8tor comes into play. Reliability means everything to our customers. Thanks to Integr8tor, we can provide that reliability in the way we quote price requests.”
Amitron has now decided to add Checkpoint to their existing Integr8tor workflows. Checkpoint is a graphical DFM review tool that allows users to gain time for time-critical jobs, to minimize shop-floor downtime and to increase effective plant capacity.
“Integr8tor has many new functionalities that come at a low cost but signify a big boost to its capacities and those using it. Adding Checkpoint is a major upgrade”, confirms Mr. Mortimer. “We have been working with Ucamco software for many years. The in-house combination of Integr8tor, that has always been the de facto software in its category, and UcamX is now better than ever. It is so much more than the sum of its parts. Amitron firmly believes that it puts Ucamco ahead of its competitors. We are delighted to continue our partnership.”

The Pulse: Caught in the Crosshatch—A Cautionary Tale of Detective Work
04/29/2026 | Martyn Gaudion -- Column: The PulseA chance meeting at a family wedding the other week led to a conversation about numbers, an introduction to a book entitled Humble Pi, and how numeric misinterpretation can lead to all kinds of unexpected outcomes, some just costly, others tragic. It’s a good and amusing read, and as a result of this conversation with someone I had previously never met, I feel somewhat (at least temporarily) enlightened. One of the takeaways of the book is that humans are born to think logarithmically, and linear math has to be formally educated into our brains. That got me curious for more.
