SANTA CLARA, CA – TEXMAC/Takaya, the pioneering developer of flying probe testing systems for assembled Printed Circuit Board Assemblies (PCBAs), announces the appointment of Quality Associates as its manufacturer’s representative for Indiana and Kentucky. Leading efforts on behalf of Takaya will be industry veteran Rick Emery, whose focus is S. Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky. He can be reached at C- (317) 698-6294, and via email, rick@qa-rep.com.

In making the announcement, David Levine, Takaya Central Regional Manager, stated, “Quality Associates is a diverse company dedicated to serving the needs of its principals and our customers with timely manufacturing and test solutions. They have been serving all aspects of the electronics environment for more than 30 years. We are pleased to be partnering with them and look forward to working with Rick and his team to support our customers and their needs in PCBA test and assembly.”

He adds, “With single or dual sided flying probe testing, Takaya systems are well suited for performing In-Circuit Test without fixtures. Always perfect for proto and low volume high mix applications, with our latest automated systems, mid volume runs without an operator now has a great justification.”
