A flying probe test system is often perceived as a system adapted for only testing basic production, prototypes, and boards that present accessibility problems. The 4040 Multimode has improved performance on probing speed, and solves the problem of accessibility thanks to th e probes designed to make contact on the bottom side of the board. And with the 4040 Multimode, no fixture is required. For these reasons the 4040 is suitable for high production volume. There will be more and more situations in which using a flying prober system is the convenient and the preferred system to use. Dual Side Probing With the 4040 Multimode, the distribution of test contact points on both sides of the board does not represent an obstacle for testing. The 4040 Multimode makes contact on both sides of the board at the same time (top + bottom). While there are 4 fast and precise probes on the top side, the 4040 Multimode adds two additional probes on the bottom side. All six probes are equipped with linear motors with optical encoders positioned on the axes, to obtain the highest performance in today's market in terms of speed and accuracy. Productivity The 4040 Multimode has been developed to guarantee the highest levels of test productivity. It is possible to reduce test development time, and the necessary number of work stations, thanks to its characteristics: - Speed and Precision for testing.
The 4040 multimode is the most versatile Flying Prober, ideal for testing high production volume, prototypes and new designs, thanks to its high speed. - Fast Programming Speed.
The software allows generation of a test program within a few hours automatically, using only CAD data. A known good board is not required. Using CAD data, test coverage reports provide an accurate report of what is being tested and how it is tested. - Multifunctional Testing.
The 4040 Multimode allows the implementation of multiple testing techniques: such as parametric testing, functional, optical testing, Boundary Scan, and OBP using UUT side connect ors. - Reduction of Workstations.
Diverse types of tests can be performed in a single session, without the need for dedicated equipment. Speed Using the linear-motor technology for magnetic bearings, SPEA has developed the 4040 Multimode: t he only flying prober in the world with a comparable productivity to that of a Bed of Nails tester. With an acceleration of 10g and a maximum speed of 5 m/sec., the 4040 Multimode is capable of reducing the test time by 40% in respect to alternate solutions.
The linear motors guarantee precision and reliability thanks to the fact that probe movement has no parts in contact. Because of no wear is present, the 4040 multimode does not require mechanical maintenance nor calibration. Precision and speed, without conditions. Accuracy The 4040 Multimode is capable of making contact even with the latest generation of SMD ultra fine-pitch devices. The extreme precision of probe positioning makes the system adequate for testing boards with passive components 0201, 01005, as well as fine pitch and ultra fine pitch IC's. Even when test points are not available, the 4040 Multimode is capable of testing the boards. Taking advantage of its capability of making contact with any available point: thru-hole vias, pads locations, and SMD pads with extremely reduced dimensions (less than 0.08mm) The 4040 Multimode guarantees the maximum precision and reliability thanks to its linear motor technology and its optical encoder positioned directly on its axes, which makes the measurement at the actual position of the probe. The frictionless mechanical movement ensures a continuous precision, eliminating the error attributed to the wear and tear of the components. Please visit our website for more information.
