In addition to its suppliers’ products, representatives from Christopher Associates will highlight the award-winning Akila XR-3 X-ray inspection system from WKK, which offers unparalleled performance in the inspection of high-density electronics assemblies including microBGA and CSP packages.
Another highlight at the show, developed by the world’s leading 3-D moiré inspection technology company, the Intek Plus SPI-4000 SPI systems offer unparalleled accuracy and performance. With a programming time of less than 15 minutes, real-time SPC, excellent GR&R and North America’s best support network, the SPI-4000 offers unbeatable performance.
The Tagarno Magnus HD high-definition inspection system will be on display at the show. The Tagarno Magnus HD offers the highest image quality in the industry with superb ergonomics. Measurement capability and magnifications up to 322X, and true high-definition performance give the Tagarno Magnus HD a versatility and range of applications found in no other system.
Also at the show, Christopher will highlight the new Koki S01X7C48-M500 low-silver alloy solder paste. With escalating metals costs, Koki’s new, patented formulation offers ideal melting and wetting (<0.3 mm dia CSP 0603 chip) at super fine-pitch, low-halide content (CL+BR<1500 ppm), and excellent printability and process parameters while reducing material costs substantially.
