Magnalytix, providing real-time reliability solutions for electronics manufacturing, has chosen Metal Etch Services, Inc. as its stencil partner for OE in a Box kits. The two companies have worked together for years, and Metal Etch’s quality and reliability made them the clear choice for this project.
“Great products start with great partners,” said Bobby Glidwell, Director of Technology, Magnalytix. “We’ve trusted Metal Etch Services for years for their stencils, so using them for OE in a Box kits was an easy decision. They consistently deliver high-quality, precise products and have been a dependable partner every step of the way.”
OE in a Box is designed to make Objective Evidence testing simple. Each kit includes 10 B-52 Legacy 2 Test Cards, B-52 Legacy 2 Components on tape and reel, stencils from Metal Etch Services, ESD bags, and other essentials to generate an IPC J-STD-001 Objective Evidence report. Kits are shipped directly to manufacturers with a return label so boards can be sent back to Magnalytix for testing and fast delivery of validation reports.
Metal Etch Services produces high-quality stencils using carefully sourced materials, optimized aperture designs, and advanced laser-cutting technology. Their stencils provide the accuracy and consistency that OE in a Box kits require, while still meeting tight deadlines.
“Working with Metal Etch Services gives us confidence that every kit includes stencils that perform exactly as expected,” said Magnalytix President Mike Bixenman, DBA. “Their expertise makes it easier for our customers to run tests, get results, and keep their processes moving smoothly.”
By combining Magnalytix’s OE in a Box kits with Metal Etch Services’ stencils, the partnership provides manufacturers with a complete, reliable solution for electronics reliability testing.
