Longest-serving distributor to the North American PCB industry, IEC (International Electronic Components) confirms that the atg Luther & Maelzer A7Pro, eight-head, double-sided, high-speed flying probe test system has been ordered and installed at a prominent PCB manufacturer in Toronto, Canada.
IEC President Shawn Stone says, “IEC attributes our longevity to the expertise and dedication of our sales team leaders, our loyal customers, and strategic partners such as atg Luther & Maelzer.”
atg’s A7Pro testers utilize eight flying probe test heads, multiple optical recognition systems, and a wide variety of advanced, high-speed electrical test measurement techniques to electrically test all types of PCBs for continuity and isolation. Board sizes of 24" x 21" (or larger), with small pad/fine pitch technology can be tested quickly and easily. Special options such as 4-wire Kelvin tests, hi-pot test, latent defect test, and others can be provided.
