ProBot is an automatic profiling system that verifies whether each printed circuit board is processed to specification in the reflow oven. Suspect PCBs can be sent to batch x-ray. Allows for more effective sampling. Is designed to fit virtually any reflow oven. Is highly modular; can specify desired features.

Sarcon 30QR is a low hardness thermal interface material that exhibits a thermal conductivity of 1.10 W/m°K and a thermal resistance of .57 °Cin2/W. Is available in roll or sheet form and can be die-cut, molded or extruded. Use for conductive insulator for semiconductors, compression joining material for thermistors and temperature sensors, as well as gap filler material for all types of heaters. This V-0 flame-retardant thin film is recommended for applications with operational temperatures that range from -60°C to +180°C.

VTOS Builder user-configurable verification and test OS provides a test platform for quick verification of new design and debug problems in embedded hardware. Tests for design correctness and production readiness in less than one week. Is reportedly easily configurable for new prototype hardware. Can be used across multiple embedded design projects. Loads and runs on custom hardware in 30 minutes. Uses a device tree without compilation. No OS porting required. New components can easily be added and device parameters configured by editing the device tree.
