Koh Young, the industry leader in True3D™ measurement-based inspection solutions and proud SMTA corporate sponsor, is excited to announce that it will host the next Atlanta Chapter technical meeting at its Americas Headquarters in Duluth, Georgia.
In this technical meeting, Vaughan Carlson, President of Value Engrafting will provide a comprehensive tutorial on testing and inspection processes critical to the PC Board manufacturing team. Topics will include Automated Inspection (Optical and X-ray), In-Circuit Test/Flying Probe Test, and Functional Test. The presentation will highlight the importance of maximizing fault coverage to ensure a high return-on-investment and will offer strategies to minimize the “Untested Device List” while saving money at each step of the process.

Mr. Carlson is the founder of VALUE Engrafting, a Test Engineering service company based in Huntsville, Alabama, established in 1988. His extensive experience includes starting his career at General Dynamics in Ft. Worth, Texas, working on the F-16 fighter for the U.S. Air Force.
