Takaya Exhibiting Flying Probe Test Technology at SMTAI 2024
August 29, 2024 | TakayaEstimated reading time: 1 minute
TEXMAC, the exclusive authorized distributor of Takaya flying probe test systems in North and South America, will be exhibiting highlights of its advanced technology at SMTA International, October 20 - 24, 2024, at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois USA. In the booth, a tabletop video will illustrate features of the APT-1600FD system and promote features including Takaya’s FastTrack CAD conversion software. FastTrack CAD conversion software is a fully integrated solution from CAD import to final test of products.
Takaya’s APT-1600FD Advanced Flying Probe test system for assembled PCBAs provides average head-speed increases of up to 50% with throughput improvements of 30-50% over existing models, making it the industry’s fastest flying-probe test system.
As part of the Plus Infinity suite, FastTrack ODB++ saves time and eliminates unnecessary work. For example; The conversion can be based on various factors including a comparison of differences in the files. If an existing test program is generated from an ODB++ file, then FastTrack ODB++ is able to compare a revised ODB++ with an existing one and convert only the part where changes have been made. Using this function helps greatly reduce the time and cost on test program debug, since users do not need to create a test program from scratch.
Takaya will also show how the integration of an OPC_UA server fully supports Industry 4.0 standards. “An OPC UA Server is installed inside the Takaya system,” says David Levine, TEXMAC-Takaya U.S. Western and Brazil Region Manager. “It communicates with the PC and the Takaya APT software. Once installed and set up, it communicates with the customer's MES system via Ethernet.”
Vertical communication information exchange between an MES Server and the Takaya APT software offers many possibilities for seeing real time test data and controlling your test profile based on real time test results, he adds. “It’s another step by TAKAYA in the realization and implementation of Industry 4.0 goals.”
