atg Luther & Maelzer GmbH, confirms delivery of high-speed bare board testing technology to Summit Interconnect in Orange, CA.
Summit is the largest privately held PCB manufacturer with 8 facilities in North America and specializes in the manufacturing of advanced technology with focus on complex rigid and rigid flex products with unique expertise in RF / Microwave applications for the Commercial and Aerospace and Defense industry.
Consistent with the on-going investment in leading edge technologies at Summit Interconnect, the fully automated A9a, 8 head, double-sided, high speed, high accuracy flying probe test system represents the latest addition to Summit’s test department. The new atg technology enables Summit Interconnect to test ultra-fine designs while helping to reach industry leading automation goals.
atg’s A9a is able to test pad sizes down to 35 micron and is capable of testing products up to a size of 21” x 24”. The A9a eliminates limitations due to test point density or fine-pitch contacts and also features embedded component test, 4-wire Kelvin measurement capability with an accuracy of +/- 0,025 m?, HPOT and latent testing. In combination with a test speed of up to 230 measurements/second, the A9a provides a “lights-out” automated handling solution for larger production runs. To achieve high throughput the key feature of the A9a is a dual shuttle system, which reduces the product exchange time to zero seconds in automation mode.
atg Luther & Maelzer GmbH, a member of Mycronic AB (Sweden) is the leading supplier of electrical testing solutions for the printed circuit board industry.

A Less Expensive Defense and Aerospace PCB Fab Startup
08/20/2024 | Alex Stepinski, Stepinski GroupEditor’s note: Investing in a new printed circuit board fabrication startup is not for the faint of heart or the light of wallet. Standing up a new “high-tech” PCB fab facility capable of becoming qualified for aerospace and defense work typically takes a minimum investment of $50 million. However, Alex Stepinski says entering the defense and aerospace markets with a new PCB fabrication start-up facility far under this prohibitive cost benchmark is possible when good partnerships, innovation, and sound engineering design enter from the beginning. In this article, Alex Stepinski outlines just how this can be achieved.
