WHAT IF. . . Failure is NOT an OPTION?
Your response to production or field failures is critical to your business. Reacting swiftly, decisively and fairly secures your reputation and resolves issues that will otherwise destroy profitability. But to achieve it, you must locate and rectify the root cause immediately.
So, who can you turn to when your mission-critical product is having issues, resulting in lost profitability? Read on to learn more . . .
Get answers to why your mission-critical product is failing!
When you are working with the most advanced components, leading-edge materials, techniques, and cost sensitive assemblies, you need access to specialized tools to look beneath the surface of chip scale components, solder joints, circuit boards, and associated materials. You also need special skills to manipulate those tools, as well as the expertise across many disciplines, to correctly interpret the results.
What’s causing failures in your product?
Does this sound overwhelming?
Don’t worry because our APL Advanced Process Lab has you covered!
Take the fastest and most cost effective route to the failure data you need with our Failure Analysis services. We have already invested in specialized, precision analysis tools, and have access to leading field experts whose collective knowledge covers the full-range of today’s packaging and assembly technologies.
