Takaya Exhibits Latest Flying Probe Test Technology at IPC APEX EXPO 2024
April 2, 2024 | TakayaEstimated reading time: 1 minute

TEXMAC -Takaya booth #4016 at PC APEX EXPO 2024 will feature the latest technology in Flying Probe Test technology. Two advanced systems, the APT-1400F-SL and APT-1600FD-A will be on display in the booth and available for demonstrations, particularly Takaya’s newest tool set with Takaya’s Plus Infinity platform.
The 1400F-SL manual load, single sided, large test area system can test assemblies as large as 25 x 24 inches. This system can be ordered with an automated conveyor interface.
The 1600FD-A is an automated, dual-sided inline probing system with a 21 x 19 inch test area. PCBs are fed into the system via conveyor, and the system is equipped with the OPC UA server for MES communication. The 1600FD-SL dual-sided system with a 25 x 24-inch test area can also be ordered with the automated conveyor interface. For larger board sizes, the 1600FD-SL is available to test boards up to 25 x 24-inch and can also be ordered with the automated conveyor interface.
TEXMAC will also demonstrate their latest tool for programming, FastTrack. FastTrack uses ODB++ data to very quickly create Takaya programs without 3rd party software and maintenance. Other features include boundary scan and ISP integration utilizing Takaya’s MultiProbe, APT Plus Infinity operating environment, and more.
