Current IssueIn Pursuit of Perfection: Defect Reduction
For bare PCB board fabrication, defect reduction is a critical aspect of a company's bottom line profitability. In this issue, we examine how imaging, etching, and plating processes can provide information and insight into reducing defects and increasing yields.
Voices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.

atg Luther & Maelzer Introduces Highly Automated A8a Flying Probe Test System
March 23, 2017 | atg Luther & Maelzer GmbHEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
atg Luther & Maelzer GmbH introduced its new A8a Automatic Bare Board Flying Probe Test System. The A8a provides the flexibility of flying probe test while delivering high throughput.
To achieve high throughput the key feature of the A8a is a new design dual shuttle system, which reduces the product exchange time to zero seconds. In addition to superior test speed of up to 140 measurements per second the A8a provides innovative load /unload and pass / fail sorting for true automatic „lights-out“ operation.
Typical features such as high accuracy Kelvin 4 wire, embedded component and latent defect test are available as well as a tension clamp set up for flexible products.
atg Luther & Maelzer Sales Director for Europe and responsible product manager, Peter Brandt, highlights: “The A8a is atg-LM’s latest innovation in high performance, high accuracy automatic flying probe testing. The A8a can significantly contribute to the profitability of our customers by combining widest flexibility with high throughput.
