atg Luther & Maelzer GmbH, is looking forward to meeting with attendees at the upcoming IPC APEX trade show in booth 4235 on February 4 – 6 at the Convention Center in San Diego, CA.
The company will be showcasing their latest automatic Flying probe test system atg A8aL.
atg’s A8aL is able to test pad sizes down to 35 micron and is capable of testing HDI products for smart phones or tablets and Production panels up to a test area of 24.0” x 21.0” in manual and 19.0” x 16.5” in automatic mode. The A8aL eliminates limitations due to test point density or fine-pitch contacts and also features embedded component test, 4-wire Kelvin measurement capability with an accuracy down to +/- 0,025 mΩ, and Latent defect testing. In combination with the fast test speed of up to 140 measurements/second, the A8aL provides a “lights-out” automated handling solution for batches up to 500 boards. To achieve high throughput the key feature of the A8a is a new dual shuttle system, which reduces the product exchange time to zero seconds in automation mode.
