Multitest Expands Package Range for Pick-and-Place Handlers
November 4, 2016 | MultitestEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Multitest has expanded the package range for both pick-and-place handler platforms – the MT9510 and MT2168 – to devices smaller than 3x3mm. The expanded package portfolios of the MT9510 and MT12168 exceed the typical ranges of competitive pick and place systems.
Multitest's handling solutions for small sized devices fully support the proven temperature and multi-site test capabilities of the MT9510 and MT2168. This combination makes the Multitest pick-and-place handlers the platform of choice for high volume applications, which not only require reliable handling of small packages with high yield, but also high accuracy and stability in the full tri-temp range.
Multitest has installed multiple pick and place handling systems leveraging this new package range in Asia and Europe.
