🦊 “We're the foxes in the henhouse.” That’s how Michael Civigny from C-TAC described their role in the electronics manufacturing world—and honestly, it’s perfect. On this episode of The D Code: IPC APEX 2025 Edition, we dug into how C-TAC is redefining machine performance validation across the board. No bias. No fluff. Just data that tells the truth. 📏 Here’s what we covered: How C-TAC performs vendor-agnostic measurement and validation—from stencil lasers to printers to pick-and-place machines Why 90% of printers they test fail spec, and how stroke-dependent offsets are quietly wrecking your yield What to do if you don’t have SPI—and how to validate your process anyway How they empower OEMs and manufacturers to baseline, adjust, and validate equipment before it causes problems Why “If you don’t measure, you don’t know” isn’t just a catchphrase—it’s a survival strategy Michael also shared a killer tip: you can bring C-TAC before you buy used equipment—think of it like taking a mechanic with you to inspect the car before signing the check. This conversation was packed with insights—and one that our producer Paul (data nerd #1) definitely wishes he was on camera for.
