The Fully-automated Flying Probe Pilot4D V8 “Pass Through” configuration of Pilot 4D V8 deployed in 3 different models: 1) on a standard SMEMA automated line, 2) in semi-automated layout, 3) in a stand alone fully automated multi-rack environment.

The Pilot 4D V8 represents the latest frontier in flying probe test technology; it is the complete solution for those who want maximum performance: the highest test speed, low to medium volume, test coverage and flexibility, for prototyping, manufacturing, or repairing any type of board. Its vertical architecture is the optimum solution for probing both sides of the UUT simultaneously. Pilot4D V8 optimizes the test of “double-side” electronic boards, which require stimulus and measurement on both sides of the UUT simultaneously, where a “single-side” approach is extremely limiting in terms of test coverage. The use of 8 probes distributed on both sides of the Unit Under Test (UUT) enables full test coverage as well as faster test time, and the vertical architecture capitalizes on the effect of gravity to minimize vibrations during testing, ensuring maximum test precision and measurement stability. The Pilot4D line of flying probe test systems offer a vast series of solutions that are designed to optimize the “time” dimension while maintaining the highest level of test quality. Information and the technology needed to collect and analyze data, is key to the successful digitalization of the manufacturing process, which is at the heart of the Industry 4.0 concept. The Pilot4D line has all of the capabilities needed for implementation in any Factory 4.0 scenario, providing the possibility to plug in any proprietary or third party information system to achieve the desired goals.
