SPEA: Flying probe system for high-volume series production
SPEA will be presenting test equipment for electronics production at SMTconnect in Nuremberg. On display will be the SPEA 4080 flying probe tester and the SPEA 3030 board tester series. The SPEA 4080 flying probe tester is still the only flying probe system with linear motors and optical encoders on all movement axes. It is used in high-volume series production and also for small and medium quantities. The SPEA 4080 is a multifunctional test system with a total of 8 configurable multi-tool test heads for double-sided contacting. From a pool of 50 test tools, a total of 28 tools can be mounted on the test heads to cover a wide range of test requirements. The combination of electrical tests, optical inspection, thermal tests, 3D scans, light tests, etc. offers almost complete test coverage. The Flying Probe Tester offers an extended test area for assemblies up to 1200 x 668 mm in size and weighing up to 20 kg. The boards can be equipped with high components up to 150 mm on both sides. A unique selling point is the tester's own 'Leonardo' system software, which combines all functions from data transfer to automatic test program generation and debugging in a single interface. Third-party solutions are not necessary, as SPEA systems come with their own complete and independent software.
