ELTOS S.p.A. Invests in A9 and A9a Electrical Test Systems From atg
February 7, 2023 | EltosEstimated reading time: 1 minute
ELTOS S.p.A., an Italian company leading in the production of printed circuits since 1980, has invested in two innovative and modern systems from atg Luther & Maelzer, the A9 and A9a Automated, to perform electrical tests quickly and efficiently.
The solutions installed at Eltos S.p.A guarantee exceptional productivity in the final process of electrical testing of printed circuits, especially in the case of the automated version. Thanks to the advancements in the latest models, the systems are capable of electrically testing medium and large quantities. Furthermore, the latest generation of automation has great flexibility, allowing users to load more codes ensuring greater system autonomy. This guarantees to optimize costs by eliminating the creation of test fixtures. The correct choice of test method and parameters are necessary to ensure that each PCB meets the requirements specified in the Performance Class IPC standards.
In a historic moment of great transformation and innovation, in order to be competitive, it is necessary to offer new solutions and opportunities to customers by installing the best systems on the market created by reliable partners with top-of-the-line technology and support. Investing in atg Luther & Maelzer systems is synonymous with extremely innovative solutions.
The long-standing relationship between Eltos and atg demonstrates the mutual trust and innovative character that distinguishes the two companies by sharing the same principles of precision, attention to detail and above all, quality of the technologies involved. The purchase of these two systems confirms a decennial collaboration that we hope will last much longer!

Fresh PCB Concepts: Designing PCBs for Harsh Environments—Reliability Is Engineered Upstream
04/23/2026 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB ConceptsWhen engineers hear the phrase “harsh environment,” they usually think of the extreme temperature swings, vibration and shock, pressure changes, or radiation in aerospace. However, aerospace is not the only harsh environment where electronic assemblies must survive. Automotive power electronics, downhole oil and gas tools, marine controls, rail systems, defense platforms, and industrial automation equipment all expose PCBs to environments that are equally unforgiving. The stress mechanisms may differ, but the physics does not.
The Right Approach: The End of an Era—DoD Proposes MIL-PRF-31032 Cancellation
04/21/2026 | Steve Williams -- Column: The Right ApproachThe Defense Logistics Agency has initiated formal proceedings to cancel the military's primary performance specification for printed circuit boards, a move that could reshape how the U.S. defense industrial base qualifies and sources one of its most critical electronic components. On March 4, 2026, DLA Weapons Support issued a memorandum to military and industry coordination activities announcing that MIL-PRF-31032, along with its six associated specification sheets, has been proposed for cancellation. A 30-day comment period was allotted, with concurrence or comments due by April 3, 2026.
