A Year of Giving Back

A Year of Giving Back

As 2024 comes to a close and we look forward to 2025, we want to take some time to appreciate our amazing staff and all the ways they gave back to the community this year!

Feed My Starving Children

We started off the year strong in May with our annual trip to Feed My Starving Children. Feed My Starving Children is a nonprofit organization where volunteers pack meals to be sent to 70 countries struggling with malnourishment. The MannaPack® meals are designed to help reverse undernutrition and are hand-packed from start to finish by volunteers. This year, our team packed 128 boxes, which equals 27,648 meals. This means 76 children can be fed a daily meal for a year!

Superhero 5K Run/Walk

In June, our team put on their capes and running shoes for Journeys/The Road Home’s Superhero 5K Run/Walk! Journeys is a community based nonprofit that provides shelter, counseling, and housing resources to end homelessness in the Chicago and Northwest Suburbs. Not only do they offer housing, warm meals, and showers for the homeless or near homeless, they also run The Hope Center, a facility offering job counseling, mental health counseling, healthcare and legal referrals. This year, Arc-Tronics was a platinum sponsor, donating $1,000 to the nonprofit, and over 25 participants ran in the 5K.

5th Annual Blood Drive

Ending the year, Arc-Tronics hosted its 5th Annual Blood Drive in October with Versiti, a national leader in innovative blood health solutions for the Midwest region. Every 2 seconds someone in the U.S. needs blood, and approximately 29,000 units of red blood cells are needed every day in the U.S. Out of the 15 participants, 4 were first-time Versiti donors. In total, our team donated 14 units of blood and potentially helped over 42 patients with their blood donation!

We are incredibly proud of the hard work and selflessness of our team members. Arc-Tronics has always been a family company. Our employees spend a great deal of their time doing community and charity work throughout the year, helping give back to the community. Not only are our employees like family, but they have created a village for those in need. We are excited to continue giving back to our communities in 2025 and hope you have a warm and happy holiday!

New Equipment

Arc-Tronics is excited to announce the arrival our of new Solder Paste Inspection (SPI) and SX Pick and Place equipment from ASM Assembly Systems. This is the latest technology from ASM’s full suite of solder printing, solder paste inspection and pick and place equipment.

The ASM Processing Lens (SPI) provides the ultimate solder printing inspection, ensuring each and every solder deposit is consistent throughout the entire production build. This is achieved by having a direct link with our ASM Horizon 3 Screen Printer. Using ASM’s ProcessEngine software, the SPI is equipped to autonomously control the Horizon 3 based on the SPI feedback of the quality of the solder print. Constantly monitoring the process through this automation allows us to identify potential defects early in the process and avoid costly rework downstream.

The SX pick and place equipment provides us the ultimate in flexibility to support our SMT production needs. The SX platform has many state-of-the art features including large feeder capacity, off-line feeder setup, component package placement range of 0201 to 200 mm x 125 mm x 50mm and placement speeds up to 66,000 placements per hour.

“We are very excited about our new SMT line. ASM Assembly Systems has been a partner of Arc-Tronics since 2004 and we look forward to continuing our long-term relationship!” – Matthew Goeringer C.O.O.
