[Notice of Exhibition Participation] We will be exhibiting at the Total Solution Exhibition for Electronic Devices 2024 / JISSO PROTEC 2024 Assembly Process Technology Exhibition.

This is a flagship model that arranges probe heads above and below, enabling simultaneous in-circuit testing of both sides of the substrate.

Four probes are arranged on the top side of the substrate and two on the bottom side. Each probe can move freely and at high speed, achieving an astonishing inspection speed that is world-class in standard. By using the upper and lower flying probes simultaneously, a combination inspection of up to six probes allows for simultaneous contact inspection at both points on the top and bottom sides of the substrate. This significantly expands the inspection range and further accelerates inspection time. It is equipped with a wealth of features and boasts world-class standards in speed and positioning accuracy. ★You can bring your substrate to our demo room at our Okayama headquarters for evaluation testing★ We can conduct a series of tests including the creation of inspection programs, inspections using actual substrates, and summarizing evaluation results. If you are interested, please apply through the 'Contact Us' section below.

Programming for FPGAs and special performance tests such as BST can be handled with a flying probe tester.

This is an option that equips the underside operating axis of the APT-1600FD series with a dedicated fixture lifting mechanism. It allows for special inspections connected to external devices, such as Boundary Scan Testing (BST), as well as writing to and reading logs from ICs, to be performed in parallel with in-circuit testing. *Please refer to the YouTube video for an image of the operation.

The Takaya APT series is a board inspection device capable of industry-leading ultra-high-speed in-circuit testing.

One method for efficiently mass-producing products is the "line production method," which arranges machinery in order of the production process. This method excels in the productivity of single products and is adopted in many manufacturing sites. The incorporation of inspection processes into this line production method is referred to as "inline inspection." Takaya's flying probe testers have models that can accommodate this "inline inspection" by automatically transporting circuit boards on a conveyor. By collaborating with loaders, unloaders, and inverters through SMEMA, it enables automated and unmanned inspection even for large quantities of circuit boards. Additionally, by using it in conjunction with other companies' 3D AOI (automated optical inspection machines), the flying probe tester can detect issues such as microbridges that cannot be identified through visual inspection alone. This approach leverages the strengths of each system, resulting in the elimination of false positives, improved inspection capabilities, and increased speed. If you are facing challenges with full electrical inspection (ICT) of mass-produced circuit boards, please consider Takaya's APT series, which allows for easy line switching without the need for fixtures.

Exhibiting at Nepcon 2024 from January 24! Achieving interoperability between industrial equipment and MES systems!

OPC UA (OPC Unified Architecture) is an open international standard developed for safe and reliable data exchange in industries such as industrial automation. It was announced by the OPC Foundation in 2008 and later standardized as IEC62541. It enables secure and highly reliable data exchange across various types of devices, operating systems, and manufacturers, making it recommended as the standard communication for Industrie 4.0 and increasingly adopted worldwide. Additionally, it is aligned with the international standard for PLCs, IEC61131-3, providing the advantage of high reliability in exchanging information from the manufacturing site with higher-level monitoring control systems and Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES). In response to this trend, Takaya has prepared an option to equip the APT series of flying probe testers with an OPC UA server. We are working to promote the adoption of industrial IoT standards that bridge FA equipment and IT.

Monday: Equipment Inspection, Tuesday: Cleaning, Wednesday: Security, Thursday: Meter Reading, Friday: Move-in/Move-out Check.

Decarbonization is currently shifting its positioning from "cost management" to "enhancing competitiveness," and we are entering an era where mere regulatory compliance is no longer sufficient. With the strengthening of sustainability labeling regulations and the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), the environmental value of products has transcended corporate responsibility and become a crucial element in market competition. On the other hand, many companies are facing challenges such as: - The complexity of CFP calculation and environmental labeling requirements makes it difficult to know how to proceed. - How to balance regulatory compliance with enhancing competitiveness (differentiation). - Difficulty in prioritizing ISCC certification and CBAM compliance. In this seminar, we will invite Wastebox Co., Ltd., which has extensive consulting experience in the environmental field, to introduce ideas and specific examples on how to connect responses to decarbonization and the circular economy to business growth from both "offensive" and "defensive" perspectives. ■ Part 1: "Understanding the Environmental Value of Products from Offensive and Defensive Perspectives: How to Leverage Decarbonization and the Circular Economy for Differentiation and Regulatory Compliance" ■ Part 2: "Why Are We Entering an Era of Product Environmental Value Now? (Tentative Title)" ■ Part 3: "Introduction of Services Supporting the Reliability of Product Environmental Value"

The requirements for quality management systems in the automotive industry are becoming increasingly sophisticated year by year, and a more nuanced understanding and appropriate response are required for obtaining and maintaining IATF 16949 certification.
