September 26, 2025 | Saki America,Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Saki America, Inc., an innovator in the field of automated optical and X-ray inspection equipment, is pleased to announce that Arc-Tronics, Inc., a high-reliability EMS provider based in Elk Grove Village, Illinois, has recently installed three 3Di-LS3 Series Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) systems in its production facility.
Matthew Goeringer, Chief Operating Officer and principal of Arc-Tronics, shared, “At Arc-Tronics, we are constantly upgrading our manufacturing capabilities to stay ahead of industry demands. Integrating Saki’s 3Di-LS3 systems brings next-level inspection performance to our production floor, allowing our engineering team to implement the process controls needed to provide the precision, reliability, and consistency our customers expect.”
Known for its deep experience in aerospace, medical, and defense sectors, Arc-Tronics has been providing high-reliability, turnkey manufacturing solutions since 1972. Its services include PCB assembly, cable and harness manufacturing, and full boxbuilds, with all personnel certified to J-STD-001, IPC-A-610 and IPC-A-620, Class II and III standards.
The Saki 3Di-LS3 AOI system is built to meet the inspection challenges of modern, high-density electronics. With high-speed image acquisition, exceptional accuracy, and a user-friendly interface, the 3Di-LS3 platform enables fast, consistent, and precise defect detection. It supports complex PCB designs, multi-layer assemblies, and fine-pitch components, making it ideal for manufacturers like Arc-Tronics that serve highly regulated, mission-critical industries.
Saki’s proprietary 3D inspection technology captures volumetric data with sub-micron resolution, enabling highly reliable defect analysis for solder joints, component presence, coplanarity, and more. The LS3 series also integrates seamlessly with MES and M2M systems, supporting smart factory goals and traceability requirements.
With this installation, Arc-Tronics continues to invest in advanced inspection tools that align with its long-standing commitment to product quality and process excellence. These AOI systems will support a range of applications, from quick-turn prototypes to full-scale production for complex and sensitive assemblies.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
