We will exhibit at the 2nd [Kansai] Nepcon Japan Electronics Development and Implementation Exhibition.

A new innovation in substrate manufacturing. Achieving improvements in production efficiency and inspection accuracy!

The APT-2600FD is a next-generation dual-side flying probe tester that can perform combination testing with up to 6 probes using both upper and lower flying probes simultaneously. It improves test coverage while reducing the risk of product damage due to board flipping operations, significantly shortening inspection time. Equipped with a high-performance measurement system and a variety of features, it contributes to quality improvement from prototyping to mass production. We accept evaluation tests at our demonstration rooms in Okayama headquarters and Tokyo branch, where you can bring in your boards. A complete testing process is possible, including the creation of inspection programs, testing using actual boards, and summarizing evaluation results. *For more details, please feel free to contact us.*

[JPCA Show 2026 Exhibition] New Flying Probe Tester "APT-T400J Series" Achieving High Speed, High Precision, and Low Cost

Takaya Corporation has announced a new model, the "APT-T400J Series," which enables ultra-fast inspection to reliably detect various defects in printed circuit boards. This model inherits the high-precision probing technology and stable measurement performance of its predecessors while achieving a more accessible price range as a standard model. It is equipped with various technologies to enhance inspection reliability and efficiency in response to the diverse needs of manufacturing sites. As electronic devices become more compact and multifunctional, the inspection of printed circuit boards requires greater precision and reliability than ever before. Meanwhile, challenges such as labor shortages and cost reduction have become apparent in manufacturing environments, leading to a rapidly increasing demand for high-performance yet easy-to-implement inspection equipment. In light of these circumstances, Takaya has developed the "APT-T400J Series" as a standard model that can be utilized in a wider range of settings, based on the flying probe test technology it has cultivated over many years. By lowering the barriers to implementation without compromising inspection quality, it aims to contribute to solving challenges in a broader array of manufacturing environments.

Takahashi's flying probe tester solves the challenges faced by EMS companies.

【Implementation Results for EMS Companies】 - By conducting electrical inspections from the prototype stage of the circuit board, we achieve quality assurance before mass production. - Early optimization of circuit board design and component selection contributes to the reduction of defects in later processes. 【Challenges Faced by Customers】 Cost of Recreating Jigs: With jig-based testers, it is necessary to recreate dedicated jigs every time there is a prototype or design change. Each design change requires modifications to the jigs, significantly increasing costs and time. Insufficient Response to Design Changes: Conventional inspection methods make it difficult to respond flexibly to design changes. There were instances where long lead times made rapid verification during the prototype stage challenging.

[Speaker] Ministry of Defense, Maintenance Planning Bureau, Cyber Maintenance Division, Director Shinpei Ara [Key Lecture Content] From peacetime to emergencies, information and communication infrastructure is the foundation for both the lives of citizens and the activities of the Self-Defense Forces. The Ministry of Defense and the Self-Defense Forces are advancing the construction of a "New Defense Information and Communication Infrastructure (tentative name)" utilizing next-generation information and communication technologies, based on the "Ministry of Defense Next-Generation Information and Communication Strategy," to respond to "new ways of fighting" backed by advanced technologies. Additionally, ensuring cybersecurity for this information and communication infrastructure is essential for the activities of the Self-Defense Forces. The Ministry of Defense and the Self-Defense Forces are working to improve their own cybersecurity while also contributing to the overall strengthening of the country's cybersecurity. In this lecture, I will explain the outline of these initiatives and the direction for the future. [Lecture Items] 1. Security Environment (New Ways of Fighting) 2. Information and Communication 3. Cyber 4. Q&A / Business Card Exchange *The program may change according to the latest situation.

Our company will be exhibiting at the "39th Okinawa Prefectural Pharmacists Association Academic Conference." We sincerely look forward to your visit.

This session is aimed at engineers in the manufacturing industry, focusing on data utilization, and will explain practical approaches to factor exploration and predictive model building using JMP products. Analysis does not yield optimal results in one go; it is important to enhance accuracy through repeated trial and error in data preparation and model building. In particular, the quality of data preparation, such as preprocessing and feature creation, significantly influences the results, and JMP allows for efficient progress while visualizing the process. Using publicly available data for model building, we will introduce a series of processes from preparation, including visualization, preprocessing, and feature creation, to factor exploration through correlation and regression analysis, predictive model building (such as neural networks and random forests), and extraction of important factors, all through trial and error. Program: 1) What to do before the model: Key points of data preparation and trial & error using JMP 2) How to proceed with factor exploration and predictive model building without making it a black box ▼Details & Registration https://www.jmp.com/ja/events/live-webinars/non-series/2026/12-15-factor-exploration
