In-line fixtures

Experience and know-how ensure your success from the very start.

If you are looking for an improved first-pass yield rate and a reduced breakdown risk then the answer is the outstanding quality and reliable functions of ATX in-line fixtures. Each unit is the product of long experience and product development expertise. Our large team of highly skilled engineers combine in-depth knowledge of the optimum materials with outstanding skills in the mechanical implementation of their designs.

On the basis of this know-how we can offer you the perfect in-line fixtures for all currently used lines and handling systems, ranging from CRS, Grohmann, Hatec and Hezel to IPTE, Jot, KTS, Philips, Rohwedder, Pematech and Spea. In addition we supply a large number of supplementary technological features, including low-cost exchangeable cassette systems as a replacement for expensive basic kits, fixtures with additional, pneumatically positioned probe beds for contacting on both sides, including bi-level or fine-pitch versions, boardmarker systems, barcode scanners, Opens sensors or further special technical developments – how your technical concept looks at the end depends on your production requirements.

Away from cost-intensive basic kits – the flexible exchangeable cassettes by ATX are a better alternative, enabling you to make significant savings on initial costs, even for large numbers of changing products. As a result in-line kits with their high mechanical input can be re-tooled at much lower cost, because instead of the original fixture kits you only need to exchange a small inlay with probes and a simple interface.
Here is an example offering in-line/off-line combination on a jot handling system in combination with the Agilent Hp3070 test system. In the example the push finger is part of the jot in-line system. The vacuum lid enables the fixture to be applied on a vacuum off-line system.
For assembly groups with very small grid spacing we have already implemented numerous combinations of in-line and fine-pitch fixtures.
Additional option – debugging station: ATX supplies suitable pressure units for a range of handling systems. This enables the debugging to be implemented away from the line at a dedicated work station.
