Gen3 to demonstrate ionic contamination testing

The 6 Sigma verified CM+ Series is an award-winning combined Rose and Pict ionic contamination tester and is a world-first, says Gen3. The CM33+ is suited to a wide variety of assembly sizes. A demo machine will show visitors the ionic contamination testing process and how the CM runs.

The company also offers the AutoSIR2+ surface insulation resistance (SIR) testing system. The company says it represents a dramatic improvement over existing SIR test systems and its shielded precision electronics allows accuracy resistance measurements to be made up to 1014Ω. One AutoSIR2+ chassis can hold up to 16 measurement cards and can monitor up to 256 x two-point test patterns or 78 x five-point test patterns, or 32 x nine-point test patterns at selectable intervals from minutes to days. Each channel is current limited (1MΩ), which encourages growth of dendrites for failure analysis.

Gen3’s principal, MEK, will be exhibiting the VeriSpector assembly station AOI for use on manual and semi-automated SMD and THT assembly stations.  It has short inspection times of less than five seconds for real-time assembly and placement inspection, and enables repairs on the fly and defect prevention, said the company.

Gen3 also manufactures conformal coating process equipment including bench-top and in-line systems, and SIR, CAF and solderability testing systems and a range of test services. It is a distributor for Finetech, Vision Engineering, Hirox, Nordson Select, Vacunest, Stoelting and MBTech.
